Mark Carney greenlights gas-powered AI data centres: an unholy marriage of climate-wrecking fossil fuels and society-destabilizing tech. This is completely irresponsible.

@atomicker considering where gas costs are now....I think he did this because it doesn't matter anymore.
They are not gonna be financially viable.
@peteriskrisjanis Oh I wouldn't worry about that -- Carney has already increased public subsidies to fossil fuel projects of all kinds (breaking the explicit commitment he made during the election). He will, no doubt, be entirely willing to spend even more of our money to support these destructive, dead-end projects.
