Cryptocurrency Internet: Ignored Climate Change Causes Poem by Terence George Craddock

climate change let's chat about other causes
about hidden bias swept under carpet causes
Wordle group chats data centres servers
are energy requirement cause responsible;
for a large amount of our Internet-related
greenhouse gases this crime causation has
typically intensified with invention advent
of blockchain technology Bitcoin investment;

folks cryptocurrency traded via blockchain
Bitcoin consumes more energy in a year than
Finland the country an increase in energy;
usage of 1000% in just five years we can
stack data several ways Bitcoin consumes
around 120 to 160 terawatt-hours of power;

per year more than well known countries
Argentina, Greece, Malaysia, Sweden
this is a lot of energy folks to avoid stigma
accusation of being a climate change cause;
play with figures math data play shell game
a deceptive evasive action ploy make data
energy use difficult to track confirm excuse
state most energy is hydro from China price;

varies markedly across China geographic regions
unit price total consumption price will be shifting
difficult to cost determine check regardless as;
Bitcoin corners hydro markets for high energy
increasing use demand on need fossil fuel energy
increases globally fossil fuel energy use increases;
