> Tech companies like Meta, Amazon, and Google have responded to this fossil fuel issue by announcing goals to use more nuclear power. Those three have joined a pledge to triple the world’s nuclear capacity by 2025.
Erm ... that's a weird date considering this article came out yesterday. They actually pledge to triple the world's nuclear capacity by 2050[1]
There are a couple of weird things like that in this article, including the classic reference to "experts" for some of its data points. Still ... at least somebody's trying to quantify this.
