Our counter narrative about Bitcoins energy usage is extremely flawed. We need do acknowledge the problems and work on solutions.

Everyone here screams "Gold is worse! Look how mining gold is bad for the environment!" but people forget that you need a shit ton of Hardware build with RARE EARTH MINERALS LIKE GOLD to mine Bitcoin.
Even if you mine Bitcoin with 100% clean energy, you still need a massive amount of Hardware and you need to update it every couple years because it gets harder to mine! This is a massive problem of Bitcoins Proof of Work system and ignoring it will not make it go away.
