Build your data center by the great lakes cycle it back dumbasses. Heat homes in winter areas...
It's not rocket science..
Concerning the latter; companies in Denmark are heavily taxed if they reuse excess heat/energy from production, in obvious beneficial ways, which makes absolutely no sence to anybody other than politicians..
The largest building in the world is just north of Seattle Washington the heating bill 9 months of the year has to be riddiculous. Set up a server farm close buy and sell your heat... or enginear your shit better to handle salt water? Then any ocean city becomes an acceptable location...
There's plenty of solutions but you nailed it, politics are preventing logical ways to fix things.
>or enginear your shit better to handle salt water?
Oh like the thoroughly proven and readily availiable technology called osmosis?
It's all about making as much $$$ as possible and do remember the multi billionaire IT-philantropists skillfully lobby every politician for sale, to point the climate-finger elsewhere..
We are at a time in history where nothing less than paradigm shifts are necessary for changing direction, in almost any field imaginable..
