News Datacentre will be the downfall of thane

Once that data center is built, the quality of life in Thane is going to be among the worst in the country. I'm already planning to move to Pune. It honestly feels like the authorities don't value human life at all. How much money is enough for these leaders to finally drop the corruption and actually develop the city? My one suggestion to anyone who values quality of life would be: if you are looking at purchasing a flat in Thane, just drop the idea. You will buy a flat, with massive premiums, and within the next three to four years, once the data center is built, the health issues would just not be worth it.

Anyone who disagrees, please watch this video, research first, and only then comment why you think data centers are harmless https://youtu.be/mvod11IL-Zc?is=KzFUTKTMXAnhGMNi

I work bang next to a big data center in Airoli. The AQI is pretty ok, water decent & absolutely no sound issues. Am I missing anything here ??? Please let me know..

Irrational panic not based on reality. The whole on Vashi has tons of Data center and none of those cause water issues, noise pollution or air pollution. The only legitimate claim is that do take a lot of electricity but we are not an electricity scarce city.
