Is cryptocurrency bad for the environment? A simple question with no simple answers. Not all coins are equally bad for the environment. Nearly all crypto related emissions are scope 2 — so is it even their fault? It's complicated.
On today's episode, Nathan explores the good and bad of crypto vis-á-vis the climate with Jonathan Rackoff, a Sustainability & ESG leader who recently spent ten months with Coinbase, helping the crypto giant with ESG, sustainability and climate issues.
During the episode, Nathan and Jonathan discuss Jonathan's winding career journey, consider the fact that nearly all of crypto's emissions are scope 2, and look for a comparison for the nascent world of crypto.
Jonathan Rackoff is a sustainability executive, former Obama White House and U.S. EPA senior lawyer, and expert in federal regulatory policy, process, and enforcement with over 20 years of diverse government affairs, crisis communications, and civil and administrative litigation experience spanning global law firms, public companies, and early and late stage startups.
