Amazon’s $1B plan to combat data center backlash draws more backlash

Amazon has faced criticism for its $1 billion plan to address concerns over data center pollution, with some praising the company for ending non-disclosure agreements (NDAs) for data center projects, but others accusing it of downplaying the environmental impact of its data centers. The company's plan aims to power 50% of its data centers with renewable energy by 2025, but critics argue that this goal is not ambitious enough and that Amazon's data centers are still a significant source of pollution.
