66 billion litres, for the record, is equivalent to about 0.07% of the water used for crop irrigation in the USA, much of which is in significantly more water-stressed areas than datacenters.
I'm still confused why we're focusing on water rather than electricity. The article claims datacenters will be 6.7%-12% of the USA's total electricity demand by 2028.
