Google aims to replenish more water than it uses by 2030

Google plans to replenish more water than its data centers consume by 2030. The company announced US$17 million in funding for water stewardship projects in seven U.S. states. Water cooling at data centers reduces energy use by about 10% compared to air cooling. Google's vice president Bikash Koley stated data center water use is less than 1% of annual American lawn water use.
