@dystopod@social.tchncs.de @thejuicemedia@mastodon.social Nice graph, thanks. How much of the water used by Dairy, Beef/Veal and Pork production can be reused in other areas via processing? Because, the number is "0" for data centers, esp. if they are using open cooling systems. You have to add tons of harmful chemicals which can't be processed out of that water, hence the water becomes "waste". Not usable for anything. Can share resources if you want.
