How Data Centers Are Wiping Out Our Drinking Water

How AI Stole Our Jobs and Now Our Drinking Water Artificial intelligence relies on massive data centers that consume vast amounts of water to cool heat-generating servers. A single facility may use millions of gallons daily, much of it potable, and significant volumes are lost through evaporation. Beyond direct use, AI’s indirect water footprint includes electricity generation, semiconductor manufacturing, and raw material extraction, all of which require substantial water. As AI demand grows, energy use and water consumption could rise dramatically, intensifying pressure in water-stressed regions and sparking social tensions. Although companies pursue water-neutral strategies and efficiency measures, sustainable AI development will depend on reducing water use across its entire technological supply chain.
