[Democratic Senator Criticizes Cryptocurrency for Worsening Climate Change, Warns of an Impending "Reckoning"]
According to a report by Golden Finance, crypto journalist Eleanor Terrett revealed, "The most heated moment of an otherwise dull hearing: Democratic Senator Sheldon Whitehouse (@SenWhitehouse) criticized the (tax) panel's stance on climate change, stating that cryptocurrency is making the situation worse and warning of an impending 'reckoning.'
He said: 'I just urge everyone listening, everyone making decisions, policies, and plans for this industry, to think about the impact you're having on ordinary electricity consumers around you... Think about why you're pushing us back onto this already dangerous climate path, because that is exactly what you're doing right now.'
Senior Senator Ron Wyden (@RonWyden) thanked Whitehouse and expressed his willingness to support and agree with these important remarks. Meanwhile, Senator Marsha Blackburn (@MarshaBlackburn) told the panel members that they 'absolutely do not need to pay attention to the long-winded and boring speech just delivered by Senator Whitehouse.'"
