Amid expansion, how do we include water stewardship principles into every stage of a data center lifecycle? The water team at Meta are tackling this issue through their water stewardship program pillars: efficiency, water restoration and transparency. We discuss how Meta has partnered with local municipalities, such as its collaboration with the State of Utah and its water agreement in New Mexico, to advance responsible water management. We’ll examine the blind spots still present in data centre water management and mitigation strategies needed to be sustainable, including:

• Embedding water stewardship across the data centre lifecycle
• Best practice for water efficiency and onsite management
• Water restoration and offsetting beyond the data centre footprint
• Building sustainable growth through partnerships, policy and water rights management
