Newsletter examines unknown environmental impact of Europe's data centres

Original: This week's newsletter looks at some rather disturbing reporting into what we CAN'T know about the environmental impact

The Europeans Podcast's latest newsletter highlights reporting on what remains unknowable about the environmental impact of Europe's data centres, a footprint growing fast as AI adoption expands. The item suggests critical information about energy and water use is missing or opaque, and frames the issue as one of political and environmental concern for Europe.

Why now: Concern is rising over the environmental costs and lack of transparency around AI-driven data centre expansion in Europe.
