uh, that’s nonsense. co2 is problematic because of concentration - the sheer volume. leaded gas and mercury are a problem because of bio-concentration. dilution still helps!
Of course it helps, but where are you going to dilute more co2 these days?
Let's add as well "SpaceX’s Terafab will rely on natural gas power plants, not Tesla solar panels" to the mix :o( https://techcrunch.com/2026/08/07/spacexs-terafab-will-rely-...
Don't understand why. AI training can be run during the sunny days. Could be a good PR opportunity for Musk, I'm surprised he doesn't take it. Especially if he buys from his own company.
Renewable energy only makes sense in a society that is agrarian. The second you have to make anything industrial you need baseload. That baseload can either be coal or nuclear.

Hospitals can also just run on the sunny days. Renewable energy only makes sense in a society that is agrarian. The second you have to make anything industrial you need baseload. That baseload can either be coal or nuclear.

»Don't understand why.« Because you cannot turn a large datacenter with thousands of aggregates, power supplies and so on off and on like a toaster.
A 4 hour grid battery and a weather forecast would easily let a training run follow energy availability.

There's really no need for coal or nuclear power plants anymore.

That's how bad our system is at giving any consequences to white collar crime.
At least these sites (its more than Amazon) are being built near the energy source they will consume. Straight out of the ground into a turbine and then into the electron spinners. Also there's not a lot of anything where these sites are located (Near El Paso). The 4-5 Road Runners who live around there will probably appreciate the change. West Texas is basically Mad Max 2.
Co2 is pollution now?
Earlier quoted context omitted.
efficient in money, nothing is said about other metrics it's quite possible to have more product made, thus more pollution (or less materials consumed, thus less) but concentration definitely will rise
sometime in the energy sector once told me "the solution to pollution is dilution"

Amazon is not capturing this amount of carbon. And the offsets are all smoke and mirrors.
The system isn't broken. It's working exactly as intended.
