A rare bee species reportedly put an end to Meta's plans for a nuclear-powered AI data center

A rare bee species reportedly threw a wrench in Meta's plans for an AI data center.


Meta planned to build a facility to run on nuclear power, but the bees complicated matters, FT said.


Other tech giants are spending billions on data centers to further their AI ambitions.

In the race to build out AI infrastructure, Meta met an unlikely roadblock in one case: bees.

A rare species of the insect threw a wrench in the company's plans for an AI data center, the Financial Times reported Monday.

Meta had been in talks with a nuclear power plant operator for a US data center to support the company's AI work, per the FT. However, Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg said in an all-hands gathering that the discovery of the bee species at a location next to the planned plant was partly responsible for upending the plans, the FT reported, citing two people familiar with the meeting.

Regulatory challenges were also a factor, according to the FT. The newspaper didn't name the power plant operator or say where the site was set to be.

Meta said in its latest earnings report that it expects "a significant acceleration in infrastructure expense growth next year" and "significant capital expenditures growth in 2025," owing in no small part to its work on AI.

Meta isn't the only tech giant spending big on infrastructure for its AI ambitions. Rivals, including Google, Amazon, and Microsoft, also invest billions in data centers to power their AI. Last month, Google announced a partnership to buy nuclear energy from small modular reactors to be built by Kairos Power, making it the first tech giant to broker a deal for new nuclear power plants.

Amazon plans to spend about $150 billion on data centers by 2040, Bloomberg reported in March. The company could roll out as many as 240 new data centers by 2040, Marc Wulfraat, the president of the consulting firm MWPVL, previously told BI, citing the massive square footage at the company's disposal by way of its leasing space in buildings shared with other firms.

In September, Microsoft signed a 20-year power purchase agreement with energy company Constellation in a deal that would bring back online part of Three Mile Island, the site of the US's worst nuclear energy accident.

The boom in data centers to power AI also comes with high costs environmentally, not just financially. In the US, data centers are expected to reach 35 gigawatts of power consumption annually by 2040, up from 17 gigawatts in 2022, according to a McKinsey analysis.

Meta did not immediately respond to Business Insider's request for comment.


The humble bumblebee just messed things up for Meta

The humble bumblebee has played a part in obstructing an ambitious construction project by Meta, according to a Financial Times (FT) report.

The Mark Zuckerberg-led tech giant has apparently had to abandon a plan to build a nuclear-powered AI data center partly because a rare bee species has been found on the land where the facility would’ve been built.

Meta, like other tech behemoths such as Google, Amazon, and Microsoft, is looking to harness nuclear power to run its new energy-hungry data centers that are being built to propel their AI plans.


The FT said that Meta was hoping to partner with an existing operator of a nuclear energy facility for a new plant that would help to power its proposed data center, but that “multiple complications including environmental and regulatory challenges” have forced the tech company to think again.

Intent on seeing the project through, Meta is believed to still be considering various deals for carbon-free energy that would involve construction work in a different location, presumably one without any rare bees buzzing around nearby.

Processing data for generative-AI products requires enormous amounts of energy, prompting major tech firms to ink deals with nuclear power companies to supply their needs cleanly and efficiently.

Google announced just last month that it had inked a deal with nuclear energy startup Kairos Power to purchase 500 megawatts of “new 24/7 carbon-free power” from seven of the company’s small modular reactors (SMRs), with initial delivery from the first SMR expected in 2030 followed by a full rollout by 2035.

“The grid needs new electricity sources to support AI technologies that are powering major scientific advances, improving services for businesses and customers, and driving national competitiveness and economic growth,” Michael Terrell, Google’s senior director of Energy and Climate, wrote in a blog post announcing the deal. “This agreement helps accelerate a new technology to meet energy needs cleanly and reliably, and unlock the full potential of AI for everyone.”

Additionally, Microsoft announced in September that it’s working to restart a unit at New York’s Three Mile Island as part of a plan to power its own AI data centers.

Rare bees kill Meta’s nuclear-powered AI data center plans

Environmental regulators reportedly quashed Mark Zuckerberg’s nuclear plant partnership meant to help power Meta’s ongoing artificial intelligence projects. Details remain scarce, but the main reason for pausing plans allegedly comes down to one issue—rare bees.

The tech company’s setback, first reported on November 4th by Financial Times, came after surveyors discovered the currently unspecified pollinators while reviewing land meant for a new AI data center. The selected area offered easy access to tap into the nearby, unspecified nuclear plant. Zuckerberg, however, confirmed the project’s cancellation during a Meta all-hands meeting last week, according to FT. The company’s CEO added that, prior to the termination, Meta was on track to become the first company using nuclear power for AI through the largest plant currently available for data center use. (Meta did not respond to requests for comment at the time of writing.)

Meta and many other tech companies continue to face energy crunches thanks to their recent AI investments. Earlier this year, Microsoft confirmed its greenhouse gas emissions rose an estimated 29 percent since 2020 due to new data centers specifically “designed and optimized to support AI workloads.” Google has also calculated its own pollution generation has increased as much as 48 percent since 2019, largely because of data center energy needs.

“As we further integrate AI into our products, reducing emissions may be challenging,” Google researchers wrote in a July sustainability report.

Critics, meanwhile, continue to voice concerns about these often controversial AI projects’ staggering energy requirements. A single AI-integrated search query, for example, is estimated to require up to 10 times the energy of a standard Google search—equivalent to keeping one light bulb on for 20 minutes. In response, tech companies have announced multiple plans in recent months that hinge on nuclear power. Microsoft currently aims to bring the infamous Three Mile Island plant back online for its AI needs, while Amazon is funneling hundreds of millions of dollars into a partnership with Pennsylvania’s nuclear plant in Susquehanna. Google is currently investing in the development of modular “mini” nuclear reactors for its own energy requirements.

The United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission lists 94 operational commercial reactors at 55 nuclear power plants in 28 states that collectively provide about one-fifth of the nation’s energy. Dozens of bee species found across the US are currently considered at-risk or endangered, so it is difficult to determine which species caused Meta’s project setback, and where it happened.

While the specific nuclear plant and bee remains a mystery, Purdue University assistant professor of entomology Brock Harpur believes that the current status of US bee species points to a few possibilities.

“If it’s in California, there are now several protected bumble bees,” Harpur told Popular Science.

California’s only operational nuclear facility is currently Diablo Canyon Power Plant in San Luis Obispo County. Given that the process for approving and constructing any new nuclear plant takes years to accomplish, it’s possible Meta would have wanted to court Diablo Canyon’s owners at PG&E if the company hoped to keep up with its AI competition. Diablo Canyon representatives did not respond to Popular Science at the time of writing. With the majority of US nuclear plants located across the Midwest and East Coast, Harpur speculated that it’s also possible the rare pollinator in question is the Rusty Patched Bumble bee, the first bee added to the US Fish and Wildlife Service’s endangered species list in 2017.

Bizarre 2,500-year-old burial of woman found with knife stuck to grave

Archaeologists have unearthed a strange 2,500-year-old burial of an Iron Age woman in Sweden with a small knife stuck to her grave.

The latest dig at the ancient cemetery site in Pryssgården in eastern Sweden unravelled nearly 50 burials dating to between 500 BC and 400 AD.

Of these burials, the woman’s was peculiar as the people who buried her seemed to have “stuck the knife in.”

“We don’t know why, but it is clear that it is meant for the woman,” Moa Gillberg, an archaeologist at Sweden’s National Historical Museums, said in a statement.

Archaeologists discovered the site with clues from text written as early as 1667 by the Swedish priest Ericus Hemengius, who catalogued ancient cemeteries within his parish.

However, researchers were unsure whether anything would be left of the graves today until they found bones during their preliminary investigations earlier this year.

“When we started to excavate the earth, there were two more small skull fragments and then smaller stone packings. We also found two fibulas, costume buckles, and a costume pin at the launch site with the detector,” archaeologist Moa Gillberg, who is part of the latest dig, said.

“Then we realized that we were probably on to something and that it could be about the burial ground that the priest was talking about,” Dr Gillberg said.

One grave was peculiar, researchers say.

It was found to have an extremely sooty and thick layer of fire and had an iron folding knife poked straight into the ground.

“We don’t know why, but it is clear that it is meant for the woman. It is also very well preserved and may have been on the pyre before it was staked,” Dr Gillberg said.

The woman likely had arthritis in the big toe, researchers say, adding that similar women’s graves have been found in other Swedish burial grounds where the dead also brought knives of the same type.

Archaeologists believe there could be about 50 graves in the area and also found signs of two houses, a large ancient warehouse, and a well buried in the region.

“One pit turned out to be a fairly large post hole, so it may have been part of some kind of superstructure or boundary for the burial ground. We want to see if we find more such pits,” Dr Gillberg said.

ARACHNOPHOBIA TRIGGER WARNING

Giant spiders that can grow to size of human hand thriving in the UK

TOO LATE

Thousands of giant spiders that can grow to the size of a human hand are thriving in the UK, thanks to a successful breeding programme from Chester zoo.

The fen raft spider is a harmless arachnid that plays a vital role in aquatic ecosystems, but 15 years ago was on the brink of extinction because of habitat loss.

Chester zoo worked with the RSPB to raise hundreds of baby spiders, keeping them separate in test tubes so that they did not eat one another.

The spiders were hand-fed with tweezers in the zoo’s bio-secure breeding facility until they were big enough to be released into the wild.

This year, the spiders have had their best mating season on record, Chester zoo said, with the RSPB estimating that there are 10,000 breeding females across the UK.

According to London zoo, the stretched-out leg span of a fen raft spiders is typically 65-70mm – roughly the width of a human palm or the length of a newborn rat.

The zoo was also involved in the breeding programme, along with other members of BIAZA, the British and Irish Association of Zoos and Aquariums.

The spiders were hand-reared between 2011 and 2013, and later released into the wild. Chester zoo said it had helped to release “thousands” 10 years ago, adding “you can’t miss them, they grow to be the size of your hand!”

“We’re super proud to be part of this conservation breeding rescue programme, working alongside our friends at the RSPB to prevent the extinction of the fen raft spider,” the zoo said in a post on X.

Also known as the great raft spider, the semi-aquatic arachnids have a chocolate-brown body with cream stripes along the side and are able to walk on water. They live in unpolluted fens and marshes.

The first fen raft spider population in the UK was identified in 1956 by the arachnologist Dr Eric Duffey, at the source of the River Waveney in East Anglia.

“Of course, there is also nothing to fear from increased numbers of spiders,” Dave Clarke, who heads up London zoo’s Friendly Spider Programme, wrote in a blog post.

“This is a huge conservation success, both for the spiders and the wider habitat restoration driving the success. And more natural bio-controls out there (even if this species is never coming into human areas) are only a good thing.”

One of the UK’s largest breed of spiders have had the biggest mating season on record as efforts to re-establish the species in the UK receive a major boost.

From near-extinction 14 years ago, the number of fen raft spiders are now soaring increasing thanks to recent conservation efforts.

Only a handful remained as their wetland homes were destroyed by humans in 2010, but work to bring them back from the brink of extinctions saw the likes of Chester Zoo release thousands back into the wild a decade ago.

The zoo has continued to breed the spider, and has now revealed that 10,000 resident breeding females have had the biggest mating season on record.

Sharing the news on social media, Chester Zoo said: “Ten years ago we helped release THOUSANDS of GIANT spiders back into the UK!

“The fen raft spiders were bred right here at the zoo, and we’re super happy to report there’s now more than 10,000 breeding females... and they’ve just had the biggest mating season on record! You can’t miss them, they grow to be the size of your hand! Honestly, you’re so welcome.”



Fen Raft spiders can spin a web as large as 25cm and can grow to the size of a rat - but are completely harmless to humans.

The fen raft spider has a brown or black body with white or cream stripes along the sides. With a span of up to almost three inches (8cm), they are the largest of the UK’s 660 native species of spider.

The species only lives in fens, marshes and wetlands, using their long hairy legs to skate across the surface of the water.

The spiders are not venomous but are semi-aquatic and can run across the water’s surface to capture their prey. Their diet includes other spiders, damselflies, dragonfly larvae and even fish and tadpoles.

They are easiest to spot in grazing marsh ditches from June to September.

Describing how it saved the unique species back in 2011, Chester Zoo said: “Our experts set about rearing hundreds of baby spiders in individual test tubes (so they didn’t eat each other!)”

It added: “Our team delicately hand fed tiny flies to each of the hundreds of spiderlings using tweezers, day in, day out, for weeks on end in our bio-secure breeding facility.

“Eventually, the young spiders grew strong enough to be returned to their natural habitat, which our partners worked to restore, and we released them in their hundreds!”

PFAS linked to gut health issues in young adults, new study finds

A new study links toxic PFAS “forever chemical” exposure in young adults to reduced gut health, which researchers suspect is a driver of kidney disease later in life.

Kidney disease is one of the well-established health problems linked to PFAS exposure, and the new research suggests changes in gut bacteria and associated metabolites caused by the chemicals seems to be responsible for up to 50% of a decrease in kidney function seen over a four-year period.

“Along with these metabolic diseases comes a higher risk of diabetic or chronic kidney diseases, and this is one of the fastest-growing causes of mortality in the US, so it’s a really important question,” said Jesse Goodrich, one of the University of Southern California study’s co-authors.

PFAS, or per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances, are a class of about 15,000 compounds that are used to make products water, stain and grease resistant. They are also linked to a range of serious health problems like cancer, immune dysfunction, birth defects, endocrine disruption and liver disease. They are known as “forever chemicals” because they do not fully break down once in the environment.

The only US epidemiological study to check health impacts of PFAS found some of the chemicals probably cause chronic kidney disease. The researchers built on recent findings linking PFAS to gut health effects, and an increased understanding of how gut health is tied to kidney function.

To try to connect those dots, the scientists assembled a small cohort of young adults, a majority of whom were Hispanic, which is a group that has a high rate of metabolic diseases and a high kidney disease risk.

Researchers collected blood and stool samples that allowed them to measure PFAS levels, gut microbiome bacteria and circulating metabolites, then measured kidney function four years later. They found reductions in anti-inflammatory metabolites, as well as the bacteria that produce them, and increases in inflammatory metabolites.

That reduces kidney function, which down the line can increase the risk of the need for dialysis or a kidney transplant, especially if one has diabetes or another disease that affects the kidneys.

It is unclear why PFAS affect gut health, but Goodrich said a “working hypothesis” was that the chemicals mimic fatty acids that are essential to regulating gut health, and the compounds appear to throw off that process.

The study’s sample size was small, and researchers say it points to the need for a wider exploration of the issue. But the authors say the findings could lead to treatment for or prevention of kidney disease caused by PFAS exposure, which is difficult to manage.

At a policy level, the study underscores the need to reduce the amount of PFAS produced and released into the environment or used in consumer goods, said co-author Hailey Hampson. But if there is a significant exposure, then drugs that could be utilized to treat disease. The findings also suggest dietary interventions that balance gut bacteria could be useful, Hampson said.


Decontamination of landfill waste leads to increase in toxic chemicals, says study

Processes intended to decontaminate noxious liquid landfill waste before it enters rivers and sewers have been found to increase the levels of some of the worst toxic chemicals, a study has shown.

Landfills are well known to be a main source of PFAS forever chemicals – or per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances – but the new study shows that the treatment plants designed to clean up the liquid waste can instead boost the levels of banned PFAS such as PFOA and PFOS, in some cases by as much as 1,335%.

Related: ‘Forever chemicals’: what are PFAS and what risk do they pose?

PFAS are a family of about 15,000 human-made chemicals with nonstick properties that are used in a wide range of consumer products and industrial processes. They can take thousands of years to break down in the environment and the handful that have been studied in detail have been found to be toxic, with PFOA and PFOS linked to cancers and other diseases. PFAS pollution is widespread, having been found in the remotest parts of the world, and it is thought every US citizen has it in their blood.

Using data from an Environment Agency investigation into landfill liquid waste, which is known as leachate, Dr David Megson from Manchester Metropolitan University, who co-authored the study found “that instead of removing the banned chemicals PFOS and PFOA our treatment plants are actually creating them … likely being formed from the transformation of other PFAS within a chemical soup”.

Megson is concerned that the understanding of what is going on in the UK at landfill sites is poor and that monitoring “only looks at a few specific PFAS, so we are only getting a tiny snapshot of what is actually out there and what impact it may be having”.

The study looked at the leachate from 17 historical and operational landfills, just a fraction of the total across the country. Pippa Neill from the Ends Report, a co-author of the study, said that “with potentially hundreds of landfill operators legally allowed to discharge their treated leachate into the environment” there is an “urgent need” for more research so that PFAS can be disposed of properly.

There is also “an urgent need to ban all PFAS globally, whether through the existing Stockholm convention or a new global treaty on PFAS”, according to Dr Sara Brosché, an adviser at the International Pollutants Elimination Network. “PFOS and PFOA were known by the producers to be toxic from the beginning of their use in consumer products, and they continue to poison the environment and our bodies many years after they have been regulated. A multitude of PFAS are now in use with little or no publicly disclosed information about where they are used or their health impacts.”

In an attempt to halt contamination, the European Commission is considering a groundbreaking proposal to regulate thousands of PFAS as one class, something that is being fiercely contested by the PFAS industry. The UK has not followed the EU’s lead, prompting dozens of the world’s leading PFAS experts to write directly to UK ministers on Thursday, urging the government to “take a more ambitious approach and follow the science … Regulating all PFAS as one group is the only way to tackle PFAS pollution”.

Dr Shubhi Sharma, a scientific researcher at the charity Chem Trust, said: “PFAS emissions from landfills can contaminate the surrounding groundwater and surface water and are linked to serious health risks, such as kidney and testicular cancer. The UK government must take immediate action to regulate this entire group of PFAS.”

Dr Daniel Drage, an associate professor at the University of Birmingham, is also concerned that the same thing is happening in a range of treatment systems.

“It’s paramount that we identify other treatment processes that remove PFAS from leachate prior to its release into the environment,” he said. “This is a multibillion pound global public health issue and likely to go beyond government expenditure. I would suggest that industries that have profited substantially from the use of PFAS over the last half a century have a moral duty to protect future generations from the consequences of these uses.”

A spokesperson for the Environment Agency confirmed it is “working closely with the landfill industry” and that it is “carrying out further investigations about PFAS within the landfill waste mass, treatment processes, and on the consequences of the treatment that leachate undergoes.”

Climate breakdown is likely to exacerbate pollution from landfills, according to Prof Kate Spencer from Queen Mary University of London. Particularly “for historic landfills that are not lined these PFAS chemicals can enter surface and groundwaters with potential consequences for ecological and human health. This is likely to increase as the severity and frequency of flooding increases”, she said.

Tucker Carlson reveals his wild conspiracy theory that abortion causes hurricanes

Tucker Carlson reveals his wild conspiracy theory that abortion causes hurricanes

Donald Trump ally Tucker Carlson has peddled a wild conspiracy theory that abortion is “probably” the cause of hurricanes.

The former Fox News host appeared on Steve Bannon’s MAGAWar Room podcast on the eve of the election, where he dismissed scientific evidence that the extreme weather event is connected to climate change and instead theorized that abortion is a “consequence” of “human sacrifice.”

“I’m sure I’ll be attacked for saying this, but I really believe it,” Carlson began.

“People are like, ‘oh, well, we had another hurricane, it must be global warming.’ No! It’s probably abortion, actually.”

“You can’t kill children on purpose,” he added. “You can’t participate in human sacrifice without consequences.”

Carlson appeared on the podcast a week after Bannon was released from prison after serving time for two counts of contempt of Congress relating to his refusal to comply with the House committee investigating the January 6 riots at the US Capitol.

Tucker Carlson appears on Steve Bannon’s War Room podcast where he made wild claim (@bannonswarroom/Instagram)

The comments come after two deadly hurricanes Helene and Milton wreaked havoc across parts of the US southeast. Hurricane Milton was the Gulf’s strongest late-season storm on record, and the strongest hurricane in the Gulf of Mexico since Hurricane Rita hit in 2005.

Climate change has contributed to the problem, causing hurricanes to bring more intense rainfall and increased storm surge from rising seas. For every one degree of global warming, the air can hold an extra 4 percent of moisture, according to nonprofit Climate Central.

The organization World Weather Attribution, which was initially funded by Climate Central, said that the burning of fossil fuels made increased sea surface temperatures during the track of Helene between 200 to 500 times more likely than they would have been otherwise.

Carlson has become a key player in the Trump campaign’s bid for reelection. The right-wing pundit has interviewed the former president a number of times and spoke at his Madison Square Garden rally last weekend, where he falsely described Kamala Harris as “Samoan-Malaysian.”

“It’s going to be pretty hard to look at us and say ‘You know what? Kamala Harris, she got 85 million votes because she’s so impressive as the first Samoan-Malaysian, low IQ, former California prosecutor ever to be elected president,” he told the crowd.

Carlson then sat down with Trump last Thursday at a campaign event in Glendale, Arizona, where the former president referred to former Republican representative Liz Cheney, who has endorsed Harris, as a “radical war hawk.”

“Let’s put her with a rifle standing there with nine barrels shooting at her, okay?” Trump said. “And let’s see how she feels about it, you know, when the guns are trained on her face.”

Tucker Carlson Bizarrely Blames Abortion For Increase In Hurricanes

David Moye
Mon 4 November 2024 

If you thought Tucker Carlson couldn’t get any weirder after claiming he was “physically mauled” by a demon that left claw marks on his body, guess again.

Now the former Fox News host turned Donald Trumptoadie is blaming abortions for the increase in hurricanes.

Carlson made the dubious claim Monday on Steve Bannon’s “War Room” podcast during a discussion about spirituality that stemmed from his recent claim he’d been attacked by a demon.

Somehow the conversation morphed into Carlson decreeing that anyone who thinks reproductive rights are a good thing is “evil” and practicing child sacrifice.

Carlson then claimed that people who don’t agree with his thinking are “worshiping abortion, the killing of kids, not as something that, like, needs to happen unfortunately, but as something that is good, that’s pro-abortion.”

He then proclaimed that abortion likely causes hurricanes.

“I’m sure I’ll be attacked for saying this, but I really believe it. People are like, oh, well, we had another hurricane, must be global warming,” Carlson said. “No, it’s probably abortion, actually. Just being honest.”

Carlson continued: “You can’t kill children on purpose knowing that you’re doing that in exchange for power or freedom or happiness, whatever you think you’re getting in return. You can’t participate in human sacrifice without consequences.”

You can see the exchange below.


Not surprisingly, Carlson’s theory that abortions cause hurricanes produced some stormy reactions on social media.

Some posts pointed out that his theory goes against data suggesting that hurricanes have increased even as abortion rates have dropped over the last four decades.

Another person noted that hurricanes are common in tropical Nicaragua despite very strict anti-abortion laws.

Other critics posted their own thoughts.

One user jokingly suggested that Carlson might be on to something since “he is the one being mauled by demons.”
