    It is renewable (or at least effectively infinite). All of Amazon runs off Jeff Bezos’s ego.

    Amazon has laid off at least 19,000 workers since 2022, with the Devices division reportedly hit especially hard.

    It’s incredible how there’re no penalties to execs for massively over-hiring. Just rewards for cutting jobs after.

    TL;DR: Amazon is offsetting its power consumption via renewable production elsewhere, which even though it mathematically works out to the same thing, isn’t good enough for this guy.

    Data centers whose energy demand isn’t met on a 24/7 basis from zero-carbon sources located on the same grid are not part of the climate solution, they are part of the problem.

    Bullshit. Just an excuse to bash Amazon. We should be celebrating companies that use renewable energy, not moving the goalposts.
