NEW: 🇨🇴 President of Colombia, Gustavo Petro, warns that Bitcoin mining powered by fossil fuels could accelerate climate collapse, but says regions with abundant clean energy like Venezuela and Paraguay are attracting investment.
He points to Colombia’s Caribbean coast as a potential hub, calling it “an immense boost to the development of the Caribbean,” and urges dialogue with the Wayúu community so they can become co-owners of future mining projects.
Petro has made climate policy central to his agenda, pushing for a transition away from fossil fuels toward renewable energy
