Greenpeace support for bitcoin not mentioned

Greenpeace accepts bitcoin donations and at least unofficially uses bitcoin. This support for bitcoin is surprising since it consumes roughly 24TWh annually, comparable to a small country. Using traditional banking would be thousands of times more environment friendly. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:1700:20C0:5570:210D:47FB:B904:6866 (talk) 01:11, 12 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

This is INCORRECT - Remove or Edit

Nuclear fusion

Greenpeace falsely claimed that nuclear fusion is unsafe and produces waste like nuclear fission.^[1] However, nuclear fusion does not produce nuclear waste nor is there a meltdown risk because the conditions required to sustain nuclear fusion mean that if there is a containment breach, the fusion reaction would simply halt.^[2]^[3]

This is incorrect as nuclear fusion does produce nuclear waste as you need to have nuclear material to produce the reaction, which does produce nuclear waste as not all the material will be used and needs to be constantly refilled. The Sun does not produce nuclear waste but that is whole different matter.
