The Issue

Our world water situation is at stake, directly under threat from artificial intelligence technologies which are using huge amounts of water for cooling purposes. Freshwater availability is a universal concern; 2.7 billion people still experience water scarcity at least one month per year - showing the precious nature of this resource (UNESCO). Yet, excessive water is used by large AI data centers to cool their vast arrays of servers, adding to the drain on this vital resource. Compounding the problem, such usage also contributes to a rise in water temperature, affecting aquatic ecosystems. We urge global tech companies to focus on incorporating more water-efficient cooling mechanisms. Please support our cause to protect water, our life-sustaining resource. Sign this petition today!
