Data centers, which have high carbon footprints, form the infrastructure for all online, digital services that we use today. The many computers, servers and devices that we all use today form a significant part of the demands on all electricity grids, yet the rhetorics of inaccurate environmental policy are often employed to stiffle scientific rigor and rational debates. These energy intensive processes that utilize data centers, include for example, both the security of centralized financial systems, in addition to distributed, nascent technological systems like securing the Bitcoin protocol. Other uses may be computation used in data centers used for generative AI.
However, systems that are disruptive to more established, centralized systems are often stigmatized. Further to this, the limited role of anthropogenic carbon production in the atmosphere is unsettled in the fields of the physical and geological sciences.
