It's amazing people get paid to just post stupid poo poo on the internet and here we are doing it for free. Someone should tell the papers they could just pay the ten bux and steal posts from CSpam.

This is an utterly bizarre claim. The water "consumed" by these data centers is flushed through climate control systems and generally returned to the municipal systems it originates from, not destroyed or sent elsewhere. The water impact of these things is less than your average suburban housing development in terms of pound for pound. If you wanna see some real bullshit, check out Nebraska telling Colorado they're stealing water from the Platte despite being being above one of the biggest aquifers in the continent.

Its even more frustrating when you see how the current water supply is mismanaged, like last year all the irrigation canals we're running high because water was still being diverted to farms, but they didn't need to use it until middle of summer because of all the rain that came on the early part of the planting season.

These are usually evaporative systems which mean they just run water and let it dry out over fins. A LOT is lost.

The South is gonna get more snow this year than my rear end up at 7500ft in Colorado. But at least the valley isn't coming up off its' water. The SLV has been giving the middle finger to the front range for years, totally understand why too, since it's been over a decade since the last year of "normal" precipitation. Lot of deep water here though.

Are you referring to the Ogallala aquifer? Lol edit: it doesn't recharge and it is being sucked dry edit 2: while this near surface strata of sediement is unconfined and thus subject to recharge by streambed diffusion and precipitation, the timescale to build the kind of widespread interstitial saturation that produces the pumpable groundwater we observe today isn't exactly useful in human lifespans. Water was going into that sand for thousands and thousands of years before people came along with center-pivot irrigation rigs and agri-industrial pumps and so on.

Yeah part of the water cycle is that it cools down enough for rain to come down. Evaporative cooling is sacrificing our drinking water on a design that should be outlawed in the face of literal climate change.
