Yes, believable, from all the payment methods available, Greenpeace would choose the most fucking inefficient one, that wastes 700 kWh for a single transaction, that's 100 households!
Good news, no one has fallen for it yet.

More likely every recipient gets their own address. An easy way to track who to send more of these mails to.
That's fucking hysterical.
The balls on that guy to try to float Bitcoin as good for the environment.
He'd be better off impersonating OPEC.
Sending my bank information with smoke signals from burning tires would be more eco...
Lol, 700kWh?
Crypto is very powerhungry, but it's not even close to that much much
I wonder what fraction of Bitcoin mining energy comes from renewable sources. I bet it's teeny tiny.
It honestly sounds more like someone convincing you that crypto is great than someone convincing you that Greenpeace is great.
You should censor the scam bitcoin address when you screenshot things like this.
Why? So people won't send something to an address known to be a scam?
Yes.
Not only can people be pretty dumb sometimes, once the screenshot is on the Internet, who knows where it might get reposted, potentially without context.
Honestly the kinds of people who support Greenpeace are the ones who are likely gullible.
