And of course, as the article says, this data center will be powered by fossil fuels. It claims a "low emissions" fossil gas power system, but the emissions may be lower than coal fired electricity, but fossil (some call it "natural") gas is still a fossil fuel and emits substantial CO2.

Plant proteins are cheaper, healthier, and cut climate risk that hits low-income families first—without asking people to give up protein.

Looking into the emissions data as well is important I think. Emissions did fall very slightly in 2025 but not quite as much as 24, 23
Demand growth is low; some new wind/solar making up for lower hydro. But once hydro comes back GHGs will fall

The quicker we cut emissions, the fewer people will die.
And as a happy by-product, the world will actually save money in doing so. Because up-front investment in low-carbon energy systems pays off over the long term.
Change isn't easy, but it's also not impossible. We can do this.
