‘To give you a more concrete idea, a single AI data center can use as much energy as 100,000 homes. The largest ones under construction are projected to use 20 times more, putting them on par with massive industrial plants like aluminum smelters or steel mills.’ https://www.alerion.it/en/articles/the-hidden-cost-of-ai-the-energy-crisis-behind-the-digital-revolution/

The Big Question on #Euronews fails to consider #UnsustainableGrowth Only #SustainableGrowth can end the threat of biosphere collapse and the diabolical violence of Empire! The solution is to redefine sovereignty; the democratic rights of diverse interests, not the negative sum gaming of party ideology. #TheFederationOfRepublics https://pollution.sustainability-directory.com/term/unsustainable-growth/

@Billthoo I mean, they do other stuff that’s annoying and disrespectful, like switching up movie and TV thumbnail art according to what might attract you to watch it, instead of the original art made for the film or show. 😒 I shouldn’t be surprised that they and many other streaming services just want viewers to mindlessly keep watching more stuff. #FakeEngagement #UX #UnsustainableGrowth

[Nat Geo] Why is America running out of water?:
"By 2100 the U.S. population will have increased by nearly 200 million, with a total population of some 514 million people. Given that we use water for everything, the simple math is that more people mean more water stress across the country."
