Maybe my sense of scale is wrong, but I seriously doubt data centers could affect climate in any meaningful way. Maybe in some dystopian scenario they could, but that would probably require at least decades, or more likely centuries - and with the current climate awareness (as flawed as it is), I doubt we're ever going to go that far. |
But I have heard reports of data centers having heat island effects in their vicinity and harmful emissions, like using diesel or gas generators just to keep some data centers running.
