Data Centers Hide Environmental Impact

To accurately assess environmental risk, we must look for site-level data—the specific reporting of water and energy usage for individual facilities. This is the most critical metric because environmental impacts, such as water scarcity or power grid strain, are felt locally rather than globally. If a company excludes third-party or leased sites from its reports, we are missing the total ecological load of their entire service chain. This lack of transparency regarding local impacts has transitioned the data center debate from a corporate board room issue to a community-led struggle.
