Texas data center boom could erase decades of progress on air quality

The trendy desire to blame data centers for everything is nauseating. Data centers aren't poluting the air. Power plants are.

Since Texas has been leading the nation on renewables because it has a fairly free power market amd renewables are the cheapest power available, I'd expect this surge in demand to be eventually replaced by more renewables. In the meantime, extra capacity comes from old plants that can be spun up quickly.

Decades of progress on air quality could erase jobs

Another article full of weasel words. Lots of could's and if's.
