@Mer__edith @mel_hogan I think we are sooner going to see a social stop/blocker to data centers once water resources become strained- many of these data centers are misusing municipal potable water resources for cooling. As a web dev, I love the internet, but I love people being able have reliable access to clean potable water even more

@tnsi @Mer__edith i’ve written a lot about water and data centers in the last ten years and am happy to share if of interest! some of it addresses exactly what you mention here **water “resources” are already strained … extremely so!
