Mining for Meaning: The Environmental Future of Crypto (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9789374599358)

A new kind of infrastructure is reshaping power grids, supply chains, and public debate. This book cuts through the noise to show how consensus design, siting, and incentives determine real environmental outcomes. If you build in Web3, advise on energy, or report to stakeholders, you will find a practical map for separating signal from spin. You will learn how crypto mining energy use translates into impacts that vary by place and hour, why blockchain sustainability depends on protocol design, and how proof of stake shifts operational footprints. Clear frameworks unpack green mining claims, carbon neutral crypto strategies, and grid demand response programmes, with attention to transparency, verification, and trade-offs. Case-led guidance demystifies renewable power purchase structures, connects code to environmental policy tech, and tackles e waste in crypto and supply chains with realistic, testable steps. By the end, you will be able to evaluate projects using marginal thinking, ask sharper questions about disclosures, and design plans that cut marginal emissions without falling for easy answers. Built for builders, analysts, and policymakers who want rigour and credibility, it replaces polarised arguments with a grounded playbook for better decisions.
