Margot Paez joins me today. She is the Head of Sustainability at Block Green and a fellow with the Bitcoin Policy Institute. We talked about the environmental impact of bitcoin mining in an effort to answer an important question: is it a net positive for the environment? Some of the questions that came up:

-What is the difference between sustainable and renewable energy?
-What does the energy mix that is used for bitcoin mining in the US look like?
-In your opinion, is bitcoin mining bad for the environment?
