Dogecoin’s mining process, based on the Proof-of-Work (PoW) consensus mechanism, has raised environmental concerns due to its energy consumption. While it is less energy-intensive than Bitcoin’s mining operations, Dogecoin still relies on a significant amount of electricity to secure its network. Critics argue that cryptocurrencies, in general, have a negative impact on the environment. However, Dogecoin's low-energy footprint compared to Bitcoin has led to some support for its relatively “greener” position within the industry. Calls for greater energy efficiency in cryptocurrency mining continue to grow.
