Large crypto mining operations would have to report their greenhouse gas pollution and power use. Federal agencies would also study how crypto mining affects the grid, air, water, noise, health, and nearby communities.
Modern Action explains what the legislation does, helps you choose whether to support, oppose, or ask for changes, and drafts a message tied to the bill, your stance, and the elected officials who can act on it.
Crypto-Asset Environmental Transparency Act of 2023 is a Senate bill senate Consideration.
Who this affects: This bill mainly affects large crypto mining companies and companies that own several smaller mining sites using a lot of power. It also affects the Environmental Protection Agency, federal energy agencies, utilities, power grid planners, and communities near mining sites. People living near large mining operations could get more public information about local pollution, noise, water use, and power demand.
Why this matters: Crypto mining can use large amounts of electricity, and that power may come from fossil fuels. This bill would give the public and policymakers more information about the climate, energy, and local effects of large mining operations. The bill could shape later choices about energy planning, pollution rules, permits, and utility rates. It does not itself set emissions limits or force mining sites to change where or how they operate.
