Google is under fire for clearing over 300 hectares — the equivalent of almost 500 football fields — for two new data centers in the northern part of Finland without concluding the necessary environmental assessments. Despite the assessments still being in progress, the tech giant’s contractors started clearing trees in the area months ago, raising the alarm bells at the Finnish Nature Conservation Association. https://futurism.com/artificial-intelligence/google-accused-illegally-killing-forest-data-center
