Original Note:
The video is factually correct as Bitcoin mining equipment does not emit carbon emissions. The video does not discuss Bitcoin mining 2nd or 3rd order impacts of energy consumption and it's impact on carbon emissions. That debate should be in the comments. https://hbr.org/2021/05/how-much-energy-does-bitcoin-actually-consume
