SUMMARY:Bitcoin\, Cryptocurrency\, Blockchain: The Promise and the Peril
DESCRIPTION:An online presentation by Irene Weiser\, Coordinator of Fossil Free Tompkins\,\nsponsored by LWV of Tompkins County and LWV of Cortland County\nJanuary 13\, 2022\, at 7 pm \nA technology exploding across NYS is celebrated for its transformative potential while criticized for its environmental impacts. To better understand this important issue\, the League of Women Voters through its local chapters in Cortland and Tompkins counties will present a program on the above topic at 7 pm on Thursday\, January 13\, 2022. \nSpeaker Irene Weiser\, Coordinator of Fossil Free Tompkins\, will cover the basics of cryptocurrencies and blockchain technologies and how the energy appetite of some forms can threaten to derail achievement of NYS climate goals. While not throwing the blockchain baby out with the bitcoin bathwater\, she will discuss possible directions forward. \nWeiser has spent 10 years working toward local and state energy policies that will bring an affordable\, equitable transition to renewable energy. She was elected to three terms as councilmember in the Town of Caroline\, serving from 2012 to 2020. \nCo-Sponsored by: Campaign for Renewable Energy\, Fossil Free Tompkins\, People for a Healthy Environment\, and Sustainable Tompkins \nThe program is open to everyone. \nQuestions may be submitted over YouTube during the event.  If you are unable to attend\, you may submit questions ahead of time via pres.tclwv@gmail.com. \nTo attend\, watch the YouTube Livestream: https://youtu.be/qIuMqn2ISA4 \nThis link is also available via Facebook: https://fb.me/e/262mOpuzu
