Of course they do. Do you really think they care about the residents, affect on property values or the suggested medical anomalies?? Musk’s and other tech billlionaires believe their own words. He and people who think like him are full of it…they are Trumpians: their goal, power and money!!!!

When did you last run an article talking about fears of the water consumption of a sod farm? Because buying the water rights to a sod farm is apparently all they needed to provide the water for this project. Like always, agriculture uses WAY more water than everything else combined.

The article doesn't ever bother clarifying the conversion from acre-feet, which they use for the farmers, to gallons, used for the data center. If they had, it would be clear that the data center is saving 98% of the water the sod farm was using.

Basically, there's quite a lot of water available in the Colorado compared to residential/business needs, but it was overallocated (primarily to farms) based on bad data, & now the Colorado no longer reaches the ocean most of the year and farmers don't want to give any back & get paid even to reduce

Because nothing says "Progress For The Future" like stealing water from the desert for the sake of letting internet trolls make fake child pornography.

There is a finite volume of water on our planet. Nobody manufactures H2O. It is crucial to life on earth. Nobody checks what the tipping (haha) actually IS. We are all gonna die thirsty - but when ? God is not mocked.

Buried in the article: data center owners, in lieu of paying $ billions in property tax, will give large sums but no where near $ billions to county for schools and other infrastructure needs. County commissioners sold out the county for peanuts. And then there is the Rio Grande settlement. Oy vey

Data Center owners drink only the finest, most expensive bottled water, so there is nothing to worry about... to them, Trump and the data center owners live by the motto: ''Hooray for me and F!@##K YOU'' SO ENJOY NO WATER after the aquifers run dry, you vote for it every time, wanna buy some eggs?
