Could you elaborate on the environmental impact of Bitcoin and compare it to other industries? Specifically, I'm curious about the energy consumption and carbon emissions associated with Bitcoin mining. Does the use of renewable energy sources in mining operations mitigate its environmental footprint? Additionally, how does Bitcoin's impact compare to industries like aviation, oil and gas, or even traditional banking? Understanding these comparisons would help me assess the environmental sustainability of Bitcoin.
