Amazon’s building a colossal data center in Texas with its own natural gas-powered plant, potentially becoming the U.S.’s biggest carbon emitter—spewing 33 million tons of CO2 annually. Amid surging AI demand, Amazon’s emissions jumped 16% last year, conflicting with its 2040 carbon neutrality pledge.
