A large data center can consume millions of gallons of fresh water per day for cooling.

INSUFFICIENT LEANING
Recorded sources

Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that a large data center can consume millions of gallons of fresh water per day for cooling?

Unclear. One practitioner guide states that data centers often consume large amounts of water for cooling, and two peer-reviewed papers confirm cooling is a major resource load in data centers, but none of the placed sources gives a daily volume in gallons, so the specific 'millions of gallons per day' figure is not established.
