  1. Large centres are using up to 5 million gallons of water each day. With over 5,000 centres (and growing) in the US, the math is nuts. They are already impacting communities.

  2. They are also significant sources of carbon emissions, which now helps me understand why Bill Gates switched his tone on climate change.
