I keep thinking of a bigger picture of these issues... watched on our library Kanopy streaming, a doc from 2022 called "The Grab"..sobering and insightful, about land and water grabs....then on this end, how wedded are we to things "the cloud", 5G and such are we willing to look at as how we are "demanding'' all what the data centers ''offer"...Seems the centers are set up to use high amounts of water, OR electricity OR both ! Thanks for this info...a great reality check for what we value... most.
Thanks for reading and for this comment! Yes, the bigger picture has to do with our growing demand for seemingly invisible things like cloud storage and the real impact it has.

Santa Theresa has a great Air Museum.
This piece makes me feel thoroughly unlettered. I just published an open letter to Bad Bunny 🫠 No but seriously, this is great work.
Thanks for reading and for the nice comment. Open letter to Bad Bunny sounds like a great way to get things done haha.
