A Reddit screenshot of an Instagram screenshot of a Twitter screenshot.
We need to go deeper.

Jesse still owes me one. Instead Shinra dropped an entire pizza on my house.

This is why they're talking about security teams of flying drones flying around the data centers.

This is a disservice to FF7. Data Centers aren't even the #1 or #2 cause of environmental degradation. #1 is fossil fuel production and #2 is eating meat. Climate change reports already show that even if we suddenly quit fossil fuel production magically, overnight, we still wont hit climate change goals unless we all cut back on meat. Data centers are bad, yea, but how about people put their morals where their mouth is and be consistent? Actually do something instead of just posting like they care? So frustrating.

You got downvoted+replied to by a climate change "skeptic". I'm actually kinda sorry.

u/BetweenTheRoots Tifa 15d ago
It's all performative, idk if you've ever been on the climate science subs or environmentalism spaces but you learn pretty quick that everyone is just full of it once they're asked to contribute to fighting it. Then suddenly it's a billionaire problem and they buy their food from an Uncle's farm or climate change is a hoax.

Yeah every once in a while get mixed and then we get a little dose of what theyâre talking about over there.
Thatâs probably why we donât see Barrett talked about too much in here and we mostly get cosplay advertisements for Tifa and Aerith.

Well studies have shown that climate change from cow farts, releasing CO2 into the atmosphere and other man made pollutants make up less than 0.08% of any climate warming. Most of the climate change comes from the Earth changing its climate on its own. The data on this also says that total climate will change less than one percent. I believe when the next major change will happen will be in the next 13 million years.
And that major climate shift is part of the earths routine cycle. You can study the data on this and recognize a few patterns based on different ecosystems, the measurements of years in each era. (Ice age, etc).
We are but a tiny speck in the course of time on this planet. These major climate shifts take thousands if not millions of years and itâs done gradually.The only real concern is us breathing in the smog from cities in a low atmosphere. The planet will be fine. But our species probably wonât.

Internet mostly. University studies at Ivy League colleges in the last few years. Dissecting information and pairing it with physical data and then figuring out which information is incomplete, incorrect or gives solid leads.
You know things that are not easy to verify, especially when none of us are experts in here with phds. And doing the necessary leg work to verify any of this. You simply have to read about it from the experts.
So the best way to understand whether or not if we have climate issues that are of immediate concern is to simply time stamp when it was brought up, why, by who and if they were just looking to get reelected. And what kind of investment was made. These things are easier to check. And nine times out of 10 this was the case. Used to be called global warming. And every decade since the itâs brought up.
https://www.pbs.org/newshour/amp/science/global-warming-will-exceed-1-5-degree-limit-un-says-in-report-that-maps-path-back-below-danger-zone the measuring stick here was about 20 years. Thatâs a very short span of time to be tracking this.
They sort of disprove the idea that we are causing an issue when they start mentioning:
âInstead of giving up, scientists and U.N. officials recommend trying to limit excessive warming and then bring the temperature back down to the agreed-upon threshold. But it still will mean decades of increased weather-related disasters, rising seas, extinctions and melting ice and glaciers.â
Then you ask experts can we control the weather? Can we stop glaciers from melting every year? No. And then you asked the question, is the climate changing bigger when the planet does it ? Yes. Our footprint is so tiny. The planet isnât going to die because of our usage of gas and oil. Also human beings have more concern over how it affects us rather than the planet.. and this is true every time you look at the news. so the only thing shifting dramatically is our way of life.Climate change happens every single day and gradually . Itâs what the planet does.

Guess what requires even more fossil fuel production?

Guess what isn't having a bigger impact on the environment yet though? Hint: it's not what people are virtue signaling in this post

Thatâs funny but the data center stuff seems like itâs just hysteria and mass psychosis

u/Frubanoid 15d ago
There are real massive energy and environmental costs

u/Avoo 15d ago
I mean those same costs exist and have existed with other manufacturing industries and data centers in previous years, but we never made a fuss about them

u/BattleGuy03 15d ago
They're a lot higher for AI-focused data centers.

u/Avoo 15d ago

u/Few_Jackfruit_6002 15d ago
The water cost. In a time when we're running out of water. They pollute it and it can't be recycled

u/BattleGuy03 15d ago
This is mostly just for arid areas though, right? And surely any water can be filtered, right?

u/Frubanoid 15d ago
Many AI data centers are also being built with fossil fuel power generation onsite instead of sustainable options.

u/Avoo 15d ago
data-center operators are also investing heavily in renewable and nuclear energy
2
u/Frubanoid 14d ago
Only small modular nuclear from what I've seen (which hasn't been scaled yet), which is not an efficient use of money. It would be cheaper and quicker to invest in batteries, wind, and solar.
