Episode 12: The Data Centers Nightmare!

from Green Arenas Hosted by Inquisitor Media

Data centers are quietly but profoundly impacting our Great Lakes and rivers. Host Robert Carillio dives into this urgent issue with Helena Volzer, Senior Source Water Policy Manager at the Alliance for the Great Lakes. As data centers continue to grow and multiply, a critical question arises: how are these facilities affecting our precious water resources and natural ecosystems? Known for their massive water consumption, data centers draw staggering amounts from lakes, rivers, and other water bodies. Did you know? A single large data center can use over 1 million gallons of water each day, with some consuming up to 5 million gallons daily.
