  1. The 23-Atomic-Bomb Valley: Why #Utah’s #AIDataCenter Is A #ClimateDisaster In The Making

    "Your state might be next. Utah counties just approved a data center so massive it would consume more power than the entire state currently uses, dump the heat equivalent of 23 atomic bombs daily into high desert, and potentially increase local #carbon emissions by 55%. Welcome to the #StratosProject#KevinOLeary’s 40,000-acre bet that #AI supremacy trumps everything else."

    [...]

    "Utah State University physicist Robert Davies calculated #Stratos would dump 16 gigawatts of #ThermalLoad into the surrounding valley—energy equivalent to 23 Hiroshima-scale atomic bombs worth of #heat every single day. You’re trying to cool massive server farms by blowing hot desert air over hot radiators, Davies notes, which doesn’t work well in high-altitude, arid conditions.

    "His projections show daytime temperatures rising 2-5°F and nighttime temperatures jumping 8-12°F across the region. #Desert #ecosystems depend on #NighttimeCooling to generate life-sustaining #condensation. Lose that temperature drop, and you’ve fundamentally altered how plants and animals survive in an already stressed #GreatSaltLakeWatershed."

    from an aerospace engineer:
    "...If aircraft had variable camber systems (The A350 already has this), this should be literally free, the reason it increases fuel burn is because changing altitude can throw you off your design lift coefficient (CL), but variable camber effectively redesigns the wing in real time to re-optimise the wing for the new CL point. The potential performance recovery is insane. ..."

    from a comment:
    "...warming effect comes only from PERSISTENT contrails. In certain conditions, over certain parts of the planet, contrails will form, and stick around, gradually spreading out and forming high altitude cirrus clouds. it is THESE which cause that warming effect. [...]We (military air forces) have been monitoring where such regions of the atmosphere are [...]so that fast jets are harder to pick out,"
