>Today, the electricity utilized by data centers accounts for 0.3 percent of overall carbon emissions
So The Cloud, arguably the peak of human technology, uses contributes a tiny fraction of our total carbon emissions. Is curbing this technology in in any major way a productive way to reduce our emissions?
These emissions are all electricity usage converted to carbon emissions. Would it not be more productive to focus on transitioning all power generation to solar, wind, hydro, nuclear, etc?
