Modern computational infrastructure treats electricity and silicon as boundless inputs, ignoring the physical degradation of regional watersheds and mineral extraction sites. Our research models processing loads against local ecological recovery rates.
By reframing data throughput through material constraints, we establish metrics that measure server heat dissipation directly against forest canopy recovery and aquifer replenishment cycles.
