Another day, another #petrotech fossil-fuel project designated for data centres. A 9.2 gigawatt gas plant pumping out 20 million tonnes of pollution (about what our entire species emits in half an hour)

Even if 10% of this got built it'd be massively polluting

Ireland's new fossil-fuelled #Petrotech data center will increase Ireland's **total** (everything, not just the power sector) emissions by ~1%
Absolutely nuts. A 1% national increase - for what? Come on boosters, explain why this is worth it π«

New @[email protected] piece- Australia's latest fossil-fuelled data centre carbon bomb would undo one year's worth of emissions cuts for the state of New South Wales if it were to go ahead at its proposed scale
This is #Petrotech at work - and it's going to get worse

^ Probably worth adding that if data centres become massive consumers of gas for a shadow fleet of #petrotech power plants - I assume that'll noticeably raise gas rates for residential as well, right?
Your daily #petrotech - the NZ gas lobby just flat-out saying out loud that data centres are going to be powered by their lovely fossil fuels
