Four Va. counties will pump almost 20 million gallons of water a day to Amazon. Cause for concern?

Four Virginia counties—Louisa, Spotsylvania, Caroline, and Stafford—have allocated at least 19.6 million gallons of water daily to Amazon for data center cooling, according to public records and FOIA requests. Amazon claims its water use is minimal compared to other national uses and aims to be 'water positive,' but critics highlight potential local strain on water resources.
