Data centers should be required to make their own electricity with solar. They should also be required to use ground source heat pumps for cooling. And I don't think it would be unreasonable to require them to be underground facilities too; as Ukraine has shown, data centers are valid military targets.

    It's better than gas, but I'd hate to think how large of a footprint that'd require.

    The only way I'd be on board is if they put the panels 15m up and the land was still used for growing food, which would then be provided to the local community for free.
