Tell Big Tech and Finance Corporations to Stop Bitcoin Pollution

Jack Dorsey, CEO, Block; Elon Musk, CEO, Tesla; Abby Johnson, CEO, Fidelity Investments

You've heard Bitcoin fuels the climate crisis, but did you know a software code change could clean it up?

Bitcoin's software code requires the use of massive computer arrays to validate and secure transactions. Based on estimates by the University of Cambridge, these currently use as much electricity in a year as Sweden or the Netherlands.


Bitcoin operations are buying up polluting coal plants that were on the brink of bankruptcy and scheduled to be retired. Others are using fracked gas, which also heats the planet. Bitcoin’s use of electricity is expected to grow. If the use of Bitcoin becomes widespread, it could help push the world into climate catastrophe.

Change the Code, Not the Climate

About 50 key Bitcoin miners, exchanges, and core developers have the power to make software changes that would use up to 99.9% less electricity without devastating climate and pollution consequences. Many other crypto-currencies already use a low-energy code! Core stakeholders in the crypto community like Jack Dorsey, Elon Musk, and Fidelity Investment's Abby Johson must help change the code. The climate can't wait any longer.

Sign the petition to tell big tech and finance corporations to stop Bitcoin from polluting the planet.

Use your power to change the code and stop Bitcoin from polluting the climate. Demand the Bitcoin community reinvent proof-of-work mining or move to a low-energy protocol.
