Where Are the Environmentalists Now? This is the Hidden Cost of Data Centers.

Submission by Kathleen Marquardt, American Policy Center

 

Where are the Chicken Littles—the environmentalists and climate-catastrophe worriers?

And where is government oversight? I haven’t seen hearings on data centers—at the county, state, or even federal level.

 

Where are all those brainwashed, whining protesters who once screamed that fossil fuel users would cause the world to overheat and collapse? Because now, it’s really happening.

 

A data center’s (DC) water usage varies, but a single large facility can consume several million gallons of water daily—comparable to a medium-sized town. This water is primarily used to cool equipment, either directly or indirectly through the electricity that powers the facility. In some cases, data center water consumption exceeds 25% of a local community’s total water supply. (Emphasis mine.) And power usage? Your solar farm handling this? Not a chance.

 

Excuse me—but the federal government wants to control 30% of all water (meaning: keeping it from farmers, landowners, and municipalities), while these centers will be using, as my kids used to say, ginormous amounts of it. And that water will be heated. We don’t have global warming yet, but we’d better start looking at the science behind all this heated water in enormous facilities, spreading across acres of land nationwide—and worldwide.

 

They told us farms use too much water, yet these DCs will use hundreds or even thousands of times more than farming requires. And they’re being built on some of the most pristine land left.

Don’t forget—we already have the illegal orders for the Biodiversity Treaty and the Wildlands Project. The plan written for Dave Foreman, founder of Earth First! (one of the most militant ecoterrorist groups in the world), was used to determine land restrictions for biosphere reserves around the world. Fifty percent of that land would be off-limits to human beings in core wilderness areas, surrounded by buffer zones allowing very little human use. Even now, in forests across the country, dirt roads are being removed without proper authorization.

 

The global elite building these data centers are doing exactly what they accused farmers, ranchers, hunters, and fishermen of doing—destroying the flora, fauna, air, and soil of Mother Earth. We enriched them; they’re destroying this beautiful country faster than anyone imagined.

They demanded open space where no human activity could take place, and now they’re covering that same land with massive industrial roofs. Where are the environmentalists now, when this destruction is so egregious it leaves us speechless? There’s no oversight—none. Are they silent because they’ve been bought out? You can bet your sweet bippy they have.

 

Wake up and smell the aroma of sewer water cooling some of those new data centers, because there isn’t enough fresh water on this planet to cool them all. If they could build them in the ocean, maybe there’d be enough water—but then they’d heat up the oceans and actually create the global warming they’ve been screaming about for decades. And they—the so-called environmentalists—would be the ones destroying Mother Earth, all to give the powers-that-be control of the world through AI.

 

And who cares, right? They’re planning to move to Mars anyway. Why don’t they just go now—and build their data centers there?

 

Where are the government officials responsible for oversight on these issues? Where is Congress, which is supposed to be monitoring the states’ use of our natural resources?

Three years ago, The Nature Conservancy proudly announced:

 

“In December 2022, over 190 countries adopted the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework (also known as The Biodiversity Plan)—an international commitment to better protect the planet that sustains us all.”

 

But don’t forget—the Wildlands Project was designed to eliminate humanity. And where are we the people, who should be demanding that our elected officials require environmental studies before taking our water?

 

In the end, this is our house—the people’s house—and the new administration needs your voice. This crisis was decades in the making. We still have the power to protect humanity, but it will take people standing up and saying, “No—not in America.”

 

They are at our Gates of Vienna. What are you going to do?
