#dataCentre

The multiplicative risks of financing data centres. The revolution of artificial intelligence could change the world, but it comes with a 13-digit bill, is what is highlighted in this. (translated)

Data Centres, fairy tales, and dirty businesses of Mitsotakis! They sell us "digital transition," but in reality, they are setting up giant supercomputers that devour our future. These facilities consume huge amounts of electricity (just one unit). (translated)

As AI guzzles water and energy, a choice—datacentres or homes? And over all the land, instead of trees Clean poles and wire will whisper in the breeze We’ll keep one ancient village just to show What England once was when the times were slow John Betjeman https://t.co/MHdN3W4Q4I #AI #Sustainability #Datacentres #GB

The government spent €100,000 of public money on a KPMG report on data centres and then deleted anything negative from it! We are just paying for their propaganda to pretend that data centres aren't driving up our electricity prices and cutting across housing and transport! https://t.co/5JkbNZ2PSn #DataCentres #PublicMoney #GovernmentTransparency #IE

Data centres used almost one billion litres of water last year, but another industry used far more (via @thejournal_ie) https://t.co/jJiSXVqPX2 #DataCentres #WaterUsage #Sustainability #Nospecificcountrycodescanbeidentifiedfromthetweet.

Gemini estimates Ireland’s 107 data centres may use “13 to 30 times” more water than Irish Water claims. Irish Water says data centres are using 5 million litres per day. Gemini says it’s possibly up to 272 million litres per day. That’s 54 times more than Irish Water claims 🤔 https://t.co/EvZDrTiExJ #DataCentres #Ireland #WaterUsage #IE

No more data centres! Serious investigations need to happen by Uisce Éireann into water usage in data centres. Nobody knows or even seems to want to know how much water is being used by these energy-guzzling data centres. #BanDataCentres #HosepipeBan https://t.co/y9iNQUIkGE #DataCentreDebate #WaterUsage #EnvironmentalImpact #IE

Microsoft, Amazon and Google’s collective carbon emissions have increased by 20% in 2025, driven largely by datacentre construction. They emitted 119m mTCO₂e, or about a third of those of France, more than the emissions of Czechia https://t.co/f80zgn9eoj #CarbonEmissions #TechIndustry #Sustainability #FR #CZ

This isn't incompetence or an oversight when it comes to data centres and your electricity bills. It's simply that the government and KPMG couldn't care less about your electricity bills. https://t.co/OPPnldUOlF #ElectricityBills #DataCentre #GovernmentAccountability #Therearenospecificcountriesmentionedinthetweet.Therefore #therearenocountrycodestoreturn.

People are waking up and momentum is growing against data centres. Data centres are driving up prices for us all, while they only pay half the price for electricity that we do. Housing developments stalled, new electric buses can't be charged, more public transport delayed. https://t.co/M8prVCCAw8 #DataCentres #ElectricityCosts #PublicTransport #Nospecificcountrycodesarementionedinthetweet.

It's unsustainable. Ireland needs an immediate moratorium on new data centres and a plan to put people, communities, and climate before corporate profits. #DataCentres #ClimateAction #SustainableIreland #IE

Data centre electricity demand is projected to exceed the entire power consumption of the state. Already, data centres are adding an estimated €1.6 billion to Irish households’ electricity bills, while paying around half the rate charged to ordinary consumers. https://t.co/9qj6dZ6TLe #DataCentres #ElectricityDemand #Ireland #IE

"Are Irish people expected to adapt their lives to serve the Data Centres" that serve Global Corporations..? Who's interests do the Irish Government serve..? #DataCentres #IrishGovernment #GlobalCorporations #IE
