In a short period of time NFTs have already dramatically changed how we view digital design. Here’s an article explaining NFTs in more detail, which I found to be super helpful https://www.bbc.com/news/technology-56371912. While reading about NFTs, I was surprised to learn that there are many concerns over their environmental impacts. This article, https://www.theverge.com/2021/3/15/22328203/nft-cryptoart-ethereum-blockchain-climate-change, further describes how NFTs produce greenhouse gas emissions and leave a massive carbon footprint. I wonder how this will continue to play a role in the future of our environment as well as digital design.
