Even if those electrical estimates are accurate it doesnt matter because bitcoin SUPPLANTS other currencies that have an even far greater environmental impact.
Its pretty obvious that if you factored in all the greenhouse gas created by the printing and associated employee carbon footprint in the banking and financial sector (a bank or mint staffer driving to work and the shower he/she took that morning would count) you would find that bitcoin is actually very GREEN.
