LETTE F OM THE Iselys
May is for the beautiful things. We wake up in the morning to spring sunshine and step outside to a lilac-scented world. We walk down the street and feast our eyes on the flower-filled brilliance of this lovely month, alive with new growth. We feel motivated to run toward life with arms outstretched, to pull the mountains in for a hug, grab a friend and take a sunset hike, dust off our tents, and start making summer plans. May is for the beautiful people. The ones we call mom—those who gave birth to us and those who fill that role regardless of biology. Why should we limit the celebration of these multi-dimensional, glorious humans to just one day? Let’s show them how much they matter all month long. Let’s remind them how their faces were often our first introduction to beauty when we entered this world. Let’s tell them how, sometimes, when we’ve lost a sense of our own beautiful selves, we can find it again, reflected in their eyes. Let’s thank them for inspiring creativity, instilling wisdom, and teaching us how to accept the many flawed parts that come with being human. May is for remembering, too. Sometimes, life temporarily blurs our vision to the things that are lovely and light. Sometimes, the people and places that made it easy to see beauty are gone. If we find ourselves in such a season, if beauty feels out of reach, we hope we can trust that it will return to our line of sight. We hope we can remember that we are resilient, and so is this big, beautiful world of humans who have also loved, lost, and loved again. We hope we can feel the beauty of those who have left us as a living, breathing part of ourselves now. May is for moments. We hope we can all take one, or 31, grab a good book, and find a sun-filled, lilac-scented corner to sit in for a while—a moment to breathe, remember, heal. Happy Spring, friends! We wish you to see the beauty all around you this month. And we look forward to seeing your lovely faces at our Beauty Bonanza, too! “ Anyone who keeps the ability to see beauty never grows old. ” –Frank Ka a

The Hidden Cost of AI’s Unquenchable Thirst
You care about your footprint on the planet. You buy sustainably produced food, recycle, conserve energy at home, and keep your showers short. But how long has it been since you’ve asked ChatGPT a question? Because with billions of daily interactions, AI is racking up an enormous environmental footprint. Not only is AI energy-intensive to operate—it’s also thirsty. The data centers that keep it running can consume up to five million gallons of water daily at the largest facilities, and with more than 5,400 data centers in the U.S., that adds up to billions of gallons annually. Data centers power many computing tasks, but AI is a leading driver of their growth, and its water footprint is slipping under the radar.
assume they can figure it out later. In the meantime, Microsoft and Meta are making deals with local governments in the Phoenix area to use up to three and four million gallons per day, Business Insider reports. Unfortunately, there’s little transparency about data center water consumption, and no federal laws to regulate it. Only half of data center operators track their water use, and estimates rely on voluntary disclosures, public records, and expert knowledge of operations. Real world consequences In July 2025, The New York Times reported on challenges arising in Newton County, Georgia, a growing data center hotspot. A recently opened Meta facility currently consumes around 10 percent of the county’s total daily water use. Now, nine other companies are applying for permits in the region, some requesting up to six
The electricity that fuels data center servers constantly generates heat and to keep the systems from overheating, many facilities rely on water-intensive evaporative cooling systems. These systems primarily use fresh water, with about 80 to 90 percent drawn from public supplies . Rather than recycling that water back into the supply, it’s evaporated into the atmosphere. Meanwhile, as droughts and water shortages increase across the country, data centers are tapping into critical sources, including underground aquifers.
million gallons a day—more than the entire county’s daily use. Meanwhile, Newton County faces a projected water deficit by 2030. Water for cooling data centers is just a fraction of AI’s true water footprint. A 2021 research paper, from Virginia
...pesticide use is “incompatible with healthy soil ecosystems"
Tech and the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, found that 75 percent of data centers’ water impact is from electricity generation. More than 50 percent of this electricity is fossil fuel-derived, created by steam-generating power plants; that added up to 200-plus billion gallons of indirect water consumption by data centers
So, if heat and water are both significant factors in data center operations, why are tech companies flocking to the desert to build them? A Business Insider investigation, published in June 2025, finds that roughly 40 percent of U.S. data centers are in regions classified as “extremely high” or “high” water scarcity by the nonprofit World Resources Institute. The companies with the heaviest footprint in these areas are Amazon, with 81, and Microsoft, with 23, while Meta and Google each have nine. Meanwhile, Arizona, which has been in an extended drought since the 1990s, is one of the country’s leading data center markets. Tech companies are drawn to arid regions for cheap electricity, plentiful land, and hearty tax incentives. “Water is an afterthought,” Newsha Ajami, director of urban water policy at Stanford, told The New York Times this year, adding that companies
in 2023, per a federal report. Tech companies are making bold pledges to rebalance the scales of their water consumption, even as they continue to build data centers in water-stressed regions. Yet, for some of the biggest names, like Google and Microsoft, water use continues to increase year-over-year, reaching billions of gallons annually. Considering that just three percent of Earth’s water is fresh, and only about 0.5 percent is safe and accessible for human use, and with much of the U.S. already experiencing long-term droughts, perhaps it’s worth considering, is that AI query really worth it?
