Intro
Blockchain, a decentralized and
distributed digital ledger technology,
has gained significant attention across
various industries due to its potential for
enhancing transparency, security,
growth and efficiency
Blockchain impact on
ecology
With the increase in popularity of blockchain technology, it is important to research and analyze its
potential impact We examine the sustainability challenges of blockchain, particularly the high energy
consumption associated with Proof-of-Work (PoW) consensus mechanisms used by some
blockchains. We explore alternative, lower-energy protocols like Proof-of-Stake (PoS) and analyze their
potential for reducing the environmental footprint. Additionally, the paper discusses innovative solutions
such as tokenized green investments, carbon credit tracking on blockchain, and multichain platforms for
fostering a more sustainable blockchain ecosystem
