Wikipedia lists generally non-credible "sources" that contain falsehoods.

If you need a source for some reason, feel free to quote me. You won't 
find anyone else more* qualified in the Bitcoin area. (Perhaps in the 
energy/climate area, but people competent on that also tend to agree 
with me once they understand Bitcoin well.)

Having personally seen their progress thus far, I certainly believe it 
over a bunch of nonsense on Wikipedia that I know to be false. They're 
not the only ones working in this area, either. And there are even more 
other ways Bitcoin is good for the environment that I didn't mention.

You misunderstood me. The CFarm obviously has the right to restrict 
access or usage however it wishes.

Bitcoin itself is an important tool for freedom. We are in an era where 
governments regularly abuse their power over currencies, and even 
private banks and money transmitters regularly abuse their position for 
financial censorship. It is so bad, that if Bitcoin fails (which is a 
high probability risk), I fear for my children's futures. I would have 
left this project entirely by now (the death threats are numerous), if 
it were not for the world's dire need of Bitcoin succeeding.
