    Dude, it’s just a single downvote. It wasn’t even made by anyone who bothered to make their own comment in the thread.

    This study itself is bad, but it arguably promotes better studies to come out and nobody is doubting that data centers are just huge sources of heat radiation and energy consumption. At the very least, it gave an excuse for CNN to talk about the issue.
