Data storage is climbing the ladder of sectors responsible for the largest carbon footprints. In fact, data storage now accounts for more carbon emissions than the commercial airline industry – and a single data center uses the same amount of electricity that can power up to 50,000 homes. Keep in mind, there are over 8,000 data centers all around the world, and as the need and desire for data storage continues to grow – so do the amount of data centers, eating up electricity, across the globe.

Is Bangalore water crisis a big worrying factor or is it political propoganda?

It seems to be a concern for many. Specially the poor. Water issues supply and access always are political, specially when there are shortages.
“Chief Minister Siddaramaiah on Monday pegged Bengaluru's current water deficit at approximately 500 million litres per day (MLD)against the city's demand of 2,600 MLDs. Of this demand, 1,470 MLD is sourced from the Cauvery river, while 650 MLD is extracted from borewells”
The big question is is there equitable supply for all?
It seems very hard for many to accept that it’s not possible for us to be happy and secure when some are deprived, discriminated and unhappy.

“…climate change certainly is changing our brains, because our brains change with every new experience we have. That’s what learning and memory is: the subtle rewiring of our brains to store new information. But for most people, climate change — at least so far, in most of the world — is subtle; bad, but subtle. The changes it has wrought in most of our lives so far are minor. ”
