Bitcoin: Final Nail in the Coffin of Climate Change? | Lars Dittmar | TEDxRWTHAachen

Could Bitcoin emissions alone really push global warming above 2 °C? Lars Dittmar examines sensational claims about Bitcoin’s impact on climate change -- and puts these claims into a clear perspective.

"Bitcoin is undoubtedly electricity intensive, but apocalyptic scaremongering is inappropriate" he says.
Lars Dittmar is a climate researcher at the institute of climate protection, energy and mobility at the RWTH Aachen. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
