Google’s carbon emissions have soared by 51% since 2019—as AI hampers the tech company’s efforts to go green. While they've invested in renewable energy & carbon removal tech, it's failed to curb indirect greenhouse gas emissions—in large because of data centers that power AI. No pay wall.

There aren't really two sides to this story, as the byline makes it seem. The science is pretty clear that at best, soil carbon storage is temporary & might partially offset farm emissions, a bit. End of.
