And...

They want people to understand that what we've done so far has made a dent in, you know, to make a greener world and planet has improved, you know, we've improved emissions by introducing green energy, and we need to do a lot more of it.

But we also, you know, we have a long way to go to,

decarbonize the world.

And it's going to take a lot of new technology, new thinking, some adaptation.

And so, I would say, you know, on the energy side, they're saying, like, the world needs more energy because we prosper with more energy.

More energy, you know.

is part of just progress of civilization, but we need, we need lower emissions.

We need cleaner water.

We need all those things.

It is so 2023.

I think that it could come full circle again with some of the innovation that we're seeing.

The tech companies are still standing by goals that now look increasingly impossible to meet in terms of net zero by 2030 and look at the direction that they're going.

And so then, you know, on the other side, that's where the, you know, advocates for climate action, for the environment, for health are saying, you know, you need to acknowledge your full life cycle footprint and communities need to hear everything

transparently that you are coming into a community and going to do.

And there's a lot that... There's a lot of dialogue that, you know, is kind of hard to have when the two sides are at odds.

But I would say, you know, the environmental groups are saying, look, like, don't de-emphasize, like,

You know, the truth is, you know, if you're backing up your data center with diesel, you know, that creates air pollution for the community.

If we're all using shared water and you are adding incremental water demand, this is an issue for the community.

If you are removing virgin land and wild places, you know, we ought to have a say on it.
