How much electricity is used refrigerating frozen desserts in the US? It's probably a lot. Probably more than a small country. Is ice cream an unnecessary and "dangerous" trap that we will all pay dearly for in the end? Probably.
Anecdotally I've seen several artists on social media making posts recently saying "wow okay I just heard about the power use of NFTs, this is nuts" because it's really not obvious if you're not already familiar with blockchain-related stuff.
NFTs might help some artists get money. That's not really as much of an impact.
So if we're comparing things, the full context needs to be included as well, not just some strawman of a magnitude.
And all of that being said, if the world decided that it would stop producing desserts, I'd probably be on board with it anyway, but the impact would be pretty large. If the world decided to stop supporting NFTs, not much would change (I suppose it could in the future, but based on their current trajectory it doesn't seem like that'll be the case).
