What a inefficient use of land, let alone what's being built on it.
Honestly I would probably prefer data centers built in old open pit mines before the mine gets filled back in.
Or maybe build them in Alaska for example where it's cold, or space like a halo?
It's cheap to build on that land and labor is cheap and less legal fight against the company if some fuckup happens
