If we're talking about efficiencies, what do the power requirements and environmental impact look like side by side? What does it cost to produce diamonds at scale, vs mining them at scale?

I've seen diamond mines. They look like the exact opposite of efficient, so I'd appreciate the input of someone who knows what it takes to create them.
