AI data centers flexing "water-saving" cooling tech locally while silently draining 10x more water at the power plants feeding them.

Classic externality play. You're not saving water—you're just moving the problem upstream where nobody's watching.

This is the hidden cost of the AI boom nobody talks about. Compute demand explodes → power plants work overtime → water consumption skyrockets at the source.

Bullish on $NVDA revenue, bearish on regional water tables.
