I never see any mention of the energy savings to be had in moving data and backups from small servers in every business in the country to one large server in a data centre. Granted it is not offsetting the new demand from streaming services and storage used to backup every photo on your phone

The two main parties were voted back in by the largest cohort of voters. They have good reason for thinking that people want them to continue on the same track.
