Just sharing one of my videos from one of my scuba dives in Saint Lucia this past week. This is a Green Sea Turtle. These turtles as of 2025 are no longer endangered because of years of conservation efforts & grow up to 3 feet long with their main diet being sea grass. They are so beautiful to watch

Residents in Fayette County, Georgia noticed their water pressure was unusually low. Turns out that a data center 20 miles away had been drawing 30 million gallons of water in secret through connections the county didn't know existed. Is it any wonder why so many are opposed to data centers?
