Data centres vow to fund Australia’s renewables shift, not derail it

@ApaulD greenwashing. Find me at genuinely 100% renewable powered data centre in 2 years time and I with happily eat my hat.
@ApaulD smells greenwashy to me.
@ApaulD @Su_G I don't trust any government that says AI data centers are going to be good for the environment.

@ApaulD
Greenwashing. Those who are funding Australia’s renewables shift don’t “vow to fund” it (as in “Data centres vow to fund Australia’s renewables shift, not derail it” - they’ve come to praise renewables not to bury them, yeah right, cough cough, wink wink, etc.).
