I don't agree with that argument. Use of energy and bitcoin incentive will motivate miners to explore and develop use of renewable energies. Energy used to mine bitcoin is probably the most efficient one when it comes to energy input and the value created relationship.

I see it very differently. Bitcoin is a good idea but really inefficient.
At the end of the day only a secure balance matters.
Energy cost is the balance protection of bitcoin.
If a better model comes, bitcoin loses 100% of its value with time. But that's ok.
Will it mean it will lose value soon? I don't think so.
But Bitcoin already wastes a lot of energy for nothing ( mining could be also real-world problem solving).
Wasting renewable energies doesn't make it better. And I'm not a green "safe the planet". It's simply unsustainable.
Look at the curve.
Look curve in 10 years, look in 20. Doesn't work. Bitcoin could fork to something efficient or something else.
