So Benjamin, why does water become such an important part of this conversation as well?

Well, the cloud has a material footprint, and everything has to go somewhere, and computers generate heat, and some cooling systems, in fact, most of them at the hyperscale level, remove it by evaporating water.

Uh, some of the other designs reject it largely through air, but most of them combine it or rely solely on water.

It's absolutely fascinating to see one of these data servers in operation.

Like a car engine has a manifold that it circulates water to cool it, these chips, which cost...

Some of these servers will cost over a million dollars apiece.

They're just rack upon rack upon rack.

So if some of those facilities can require up to 200 million gallons of water a day, like that example that you just gave, what does that demand mean for an area where local water resources couldn't support it? Because it's all coming from, um, local water places, like local watersheds, right?
