Saying it's a waste is like putting a moral qualifier on the use of energy - and for the purpose and affect that this decentralized monetary system can have on the world is definitely worth it in my eyes. People dont make a fuss about using 2 clothes dryers and 24/7 christmas lights that use more energy, but hey that's an approved use of energy.

Luckily Christmas lights lit 24/7/52 don't generate xmas-coins.

Morals or not. We will see if Ethereums "proof of stake" will be able to solve anything.
