    Global Emissions Peak is a bit like the Year of the Linux Desktop. (We should also keep in mind that mismeasuring of emissions is rampant, as is outright cheating. So whatever year it is determined to be, in actuality it’s probably going to be later.)

      They don’t even say that. They say emissions will peak which is en par with other institutions.

          Maybe if you start heating your homes by burning car tires in your gardens. But otherwise, no. You are already so far behind the curve that economics really don’t allow CO2 emission increases on a global significant level.

              Those data centers would soon be somewhere else due to… economics. And even if not, wouldn’t be significant.
