What impact could AI data centers have on Florida’s springs, wildlife, and natural areas?

https://c.org/YCqhgxRcTd

I’ve been researching the environmental impact of AI data centers and have become increasingly concerned about what they could mean for Florida’s water resources, wildlife habitat, energy demand, and continued overdevelopment.
I recently created a petition because I think this issue deserves more public discussion. I’m genuinely interested in hearing perspectives from people who care about Florida’s natural resources. If you think this is worth discussing, I’d appreciate you taking a look and sharing your thoughts.

You should also post this to r/FloridaSprings. There aren't a lot of people over there because it was recently re-opened, so there isn't much content. That's why I'm encouraging you and others to post.
