Unequal Distribution The richest people are collecting global wealth but creating a lot of carbon emissions Global Carbon Emissions Global Wealth Top 1 % Top 10% Rich The other 99 % The other 90 % of the population Are you really willing to let the world bear the consequences together ? 3
The Catastrophe of the Present and the Future No matter what project is developed, nothing deserves more attention than coping with the catastrophe caused by ecological damage. • Extreme Climate : Storms, tsunamis, floods, droughts, and heavy snow have caused countless losses of life and property. • Sea level rise : Low-lying cities face the risk of seawater flooding • Epidemics : Global warming is fueling the spread of major epidemics, and humanity is facing an unprecedented • Species Extinction : 1 % of humans have wiped out nearly 85 % of wild mammals and cut down half of the world's plants. • Air Pollution : Haze is a serious threat to health. 4
Carbon Monster Traditional • Electricity and heat production : mainly due to the burning of coal, natural gas and oil to generate electricity and heat • • Transportation : including road, rail, air and sea transportation Manufacturing and construction : This includes emissions from the production of goods and building materials, such as cement and steel • Agriculture : mainly from methane (produced by livestock) and nitrous oxide (released from fertilizers) Emerging • Bitcoin Mining : Since its inception, the Bitcoin network has emitted approximately 199.65 million tons of CO2 equivalent. In comparison, Bitcoin mining’s annual carbon emissions are estimated to be around 65 million tons of CO2, comparable to the emissions of a country like Greece. • AI computing power : Generating an image using a generative AI model requires as much energy as a fully charged smartphone • Advanced wafer manufacturing : Producing today’s advanced wafers is estimated to consume nearly 8 billion kWh per year and is expected to quadruple over the next decade. 5
