Extreme heat from the #BabylonFire and other wildfires across Utah and Colorado led to the formation of pyrocumulonimbus clouds earlier this week. These clouds were captured by @NOAA’s #GOESWest (#GOES18) 🛰️ over an eight-hour period on July 6. The Babylon Fire has burned over 100,000 acres and is 11% contained.

RT @antonioguterres: AI may feel intangible, but its footprint is not.

Data centres already consume more electricity than most countries.

I’m calling on every major AI company to measure & publicly disclose the full footprint of its systems & to commit to power every data centre with renewable energy by 2030.
