We deplete our midwestern aquifers to make ethanol which we burn, and we grow almonds in California.

Both of those have significantly more water impact. Both of those are significantly less useful.

Why not focus on issues that matter.

Food and fuel are significantly more useful than chatbots.
Why either/or? This is largely a tech forum so almond crops don't need to be the big area of focus or where we as a community can offer our best knowledge/coordination.
