Thanks to the massive amount of electricity needed to mine cryptocurrency, adopting bitcoin on a society-wide basis could raise global temperatures by two degrees Celsius in just 15 years, according to a new study.

Being living as a citizen of the United States puts you somewhere around the top 1% of the world by income. Living in Silicon Valley would put you approximately about the 1% of that 1%. It isn't some crazy feat to be one of the top 7% wealthiest people in the world.

Currently we're on track for +3 degrees by 2050. That will cause famines and water shortages for hundreds of millions of people.

all developed countries have stabilised their population. the jews want to destroy the planet through massive immigration just so they can keep their ponzi going for the next 20-30 years
all jews, blacks, indians, pakis and arabs should be sterilized. it's the humane thing to do: no killing them, but no sacrificing the infinite potential of future generations for their sake either
