There are range of data centers proposed for Foyle, Derry, Ireland. The community has been able to get access to a large quantity of disclosure documentation but they don't have the technical expertise to understand them. Much of it relates to how water will be used.
Is there anyone out there who might be able to help them?

Some people are commenting--with the best will in the world--that once data centers are using 'renewable' energy, then basically everything is heading in the right direction. I'm told that there are plans around Foyle, Derry to build even more huge wind factories on the mountains to supply these new data centers. This will be sold as a "green" win. The local communities are very much opposed. What we are seeing is the industrialization of the countryside sold as "green".
