More Food/Farms, Less Datacentres
Filed under: No animal can eat datacentres
ears ago we used to buy sacks of seed like these, but later we chose premium (vastly better) seeds at a local market. Months ago the government asked people to lessen or altogether stop the feeding of birds, saying there was no need during summer. This was immediately refuted by some NGOs. I had this theory about grain shortages leading to that advice. Are we prioritising humans over all other living beings?
It’s no secret the planet is overpopulated (by humans mostly).
Anyway, months ago I noticed that many stores no longer stocked large bags of seeds for birds. Last month not even the largest stores stocked them. Was this a business decision or something else?
I still have my sources for sacks of seeds, but they’re not cheap, even if they’re better and less “official”.
There are already press reports about how the oil shortages, the wars, and the drought lead to a grain shortage, potentially driving hunger/famine.
The demand grows, so do the prices. Poor countries are not prioritised for exports and the weather leads to crop (agra) failures.
And they tell us we need more energy-hungry datacentres that drive climate change!
