Water Conservation And Reuse For Data Centers
8/25/2025
Because of our own decades-long mismanagement of our collective global water resources, we are now facing a global freshwater crisis where the demand for freshwater is predicted to exceed its supply by 40% by the year 2030. Directly coinciding with the water crisis timeline is the growing need for data center construction in order to accommodate AI, cloud computing, and other Big Data and IoT processing.

What Private Utilities Need to Know About Nutrient Loading and Eutrophication
8/7/2025
For private utilities, discharging wastewater isn’t a one-size-fits-all process. If your facility serves a resort, a golf course, a residential community, or a mixed-use development, you’re likely discharging into smaller, localized water bodies (creeks, ponds, wetlands), not large rivers or oceans. And while these ecosystems are beautiful they’re also incredibly vulnerable to nutrient loading and eutrophication.
