👍 It makes me angry when RW choads who don't understand #Climate science mock things like "107' in March" as "not proof of anything".

Corporations/CEOs with a financial stake in NOT doing anything about #ClimateChange have done a masterful job of getting imbecilic CC deniers like "Drill Baby, drill" ranting #Coal clowns like #DisasterDon elected, while #China dominates the grown #GreenTech Industry. #EVs #MagLev trains. #WindFarms #SolarPanels.

#FamilyFarms are some of the biggest benefactors from #GreenEnergy . In the USA, farmers can get paid thousands of dollars for each wind turbine on their land. This is a reliable source of income in an industry that gambles heavily on the weather and market prices.

...And my electric bill in the far-suburbs of Chicago has gone up around 30% since the nearby data centers went online. (Yes, that was plural.)

No new power supply
+ an entire huge city of households usage added to the grid
= MY utility prices go up.

Thankfully, our new Mayor is putting a moratorium on new #DataCenters .
