>San Carlos Lake in Arizona, USA permanently closed due to ENTIRE fish population dying after reservoir was drained and remaining lake water rapidly evaporated in the summer heat
>Arizona law states the Coolidge Dam needs to drain periodically into the Gila River in order to meet demands downstream from lake (agriculture, sewer treatment, etc.)
>AI companies abused this law by having their planned data centers located all along the river and were already siphoning and rerouting water despite construction not starting yet
>This is in addition to the millions of gallons of distilled water AI has already earmarked for their data center cooling systems in advance, most of which isn't local and will need to be delivered by truck out of state
>Lake and river are part of Apache tribal lands, who depended on the fisheries and recreational businesses for income and continued tourism
>San Carlos Lake was one of the largest, most biodiverse freshwater lakes in the American Southwest region and fishermen broke world records catching fish from this lake for the past 100 years since the dam was built
And it only took 1 year for AI to destroy it forever.

>Draining Lake Dry
The watering of American lawns uses over 100 times as much water as data centers.

Alas. The price of progress.

Cool.

i think that every retard who thinks water disappears when it is used to cool a data center should automatically lose their right to vote. there are many such misunderstandings and sins many normies like faggot op commit on a daily basis and we gotta punish this to the utmost extreme.

The articles I found all say it's from honoring existing water agreements with ag outfits

And the lawns provide 1000 times the benefit too

>>
>>537696984
Where are the centers siphoning the water from? This makes me kind of pissed off given Arizona has already earmarked a large sum of water for our semiconductor plant.
>>
>>537697371
Green lawns are good for the local environment, and the water goes back into the natural cycle in time. Water for data centers is contaminated after use, so it has to go to a treatment plant where it eventually goes back to data centers.
>>
>>537696984
Why not drop incendiary devices on data centers from miles away with retail drones ?
>>
>>537697430
How do you mean?
If it's evaporative cooling then the water leaves the area, if it's "closed loop" then the water becomes unusable due to chemicals etc.

>muh datacenter boogieman

Tired of this midwit sloppa. Yeah, they plan these billion dollar projects with the intent to dry up these lakes, so that they can stop being functional in 2 weeks. It's clearly the datacenters doing this. Are you retarded?
>>
>>537697430
The water is not disappearing. But drain enough at once and the fish will die.
>>
>>537697371
Yes, every lake in the world was completely drained and made barren 50 years ago because people water plants.
Mentally crippled kike retard.
>>
>>537697763
This makes no sense. Nuclear reactors use sea water without damaging it by using heat exchangers. There is no reason why it should damage the water by using it for cooling. Put the data centers in California and Florida and other coastal states.
>>
>>537696984
What does the AI data centers do to the water that it can’t just be put back where they found it after cooling the data center? What is wrong with the water after they use it to carry the heat away from the data centers? Why is everything being done in such a stupid fashion?

The cooling loops should be mandated open and made out of stainless with the water sent back to the source.
>>
>>537698345
In big cooling towers like the winery? Then that type should be illegal for them to use useless they recapture the steam.

Isn't it easier to just make the taxpayers pour water back into the lake?
>>
>>537697430
the water leaves the reservoir and goes into the air as its evaporated for cooling.
it effectively disappears from the area.
>>
>>537696984
Hey you gay nigger kike. The water levels have nothing to do with computers.
The levels are low because of farmers. This has happened many times in the past

>Under Arizona water law, the oldest water rights get filled first. When farmers with senior rights demand their water, they get first dibs on the water from the lake. Eventually, the lake can't fulfill all of its water rights holders' requests. Larson says releases from Coolidge Dam at San Carlos Lake to satisfy those rights brought the lake to record low levels

Your story about them putting data centers is fake.
>>
>>537698268
You can't do that because the water needs to be treated chemically to be used as a coolant.
Moreover dumping millions of gallons of warm water back into reservoirs or God forbid, natural freshwater sources would have a catastrophic effect

your shit data pretends usage of water is the same in arizona and in florida's swamps.
>>
>>537698661
naw dude very little is lost to evaproration in comparison to the total usage. its like the cooling system for a power plant. the vast majority of the water gets returend within 1degree F to the environment. most of the evaporation happens in the pond they use to bring the water back to enviromental temp. there is both a closed loop and a open loop in these systems with a heat exchange in between
>>
>>537700761
you don't run natural water into pipes it would clog in a few days. That water is 100% used to evaporation and they don't care if it's 60°C when released back in the river as long as it keeps the CPU's at 70°C
>>
>>537700761
naw dude, i know from experience with these coolers, they are massive and just dump water down a cooling tower and it evaporates into the atmosphere.
anyone that is ok with this shit is retarded.
they need to be closed loop by law or we fucking burn them.
>>
>>537700951
yea you kinda right i just looke it up. data centers use more evaporation systems. once-through cooling like power plants use take thousands of gallons a minute from the river. yes they use river water yes, fish get sucked into them, yes they are engineered for that

The elites are trying to overload the simulation and cause the game to reset because humanity is winning due to an awareness factor. The ai data centers are going to overload the grid and use more data than we contain ourselves. OR theyre going to trap us in a matrix whilst being in one
>>
>>537698401
And the water gets sent back to the source at 90 degrees F theyre lying to you about the cooling. Water is also filled with heavy metals.
>>
>>537698268
The Colorado river at lake Havasu is unnaturally cold because of dam outlet ar bottom. It would help to heat that water up.
