Data centers consume vast amounts of energy to support increasing digital services and computing power, resulting in significant heat emissions. For example, Equinix, based in California, is the world's largest data center operator and contributes to local temperature increases due to heat generated.

A tool provides estimates of daily energy consumption for various products and activities, measured in watt-hours (Wh). It aims to clarify the differences in energy usage to help users understand the impact of different activities on overall energy consumption.

A hothouse Earth trajectory poses significant risks to global ecosystems and human societies. Research emphasizes the urgency of mitigating climate change to prevent irreversible damage to the planet's climate system.
