They are only discussing about how they can make it more efficient. As far as I understand one kind of cost cutting they are aiming is energy and money required in "Cooling" systems, ya I read about less failure cases too. But putting a heat generating device under water will have adverse effect on underwater ecosystem surrounding it.

Cooling underwater does not produce additional carbon. Cooling in normal data centers, produces a lot of carbon (in case they are using solar panels, production of those panels generates short term carbon).

I would definitely choose the former over the latter.

The same is true of land based operations ha IMG environmental impact, there is a whole lot more sea than land.

are you trying to say we can afford to alter sea because its alot than land ?
