A Huge AI Datacenter Planned Near Mar a Lago May Imperil the Everglades A massive datacenter project, dubbed Project Tango, has been proposed for a 202 acre parcel of land just west of President Trump's Mar a Lago estate in southern Florida.
The facility would consume enough power to supply half a million US homes at peak capacity, posing significant environmental and health risks to the already fragile ecosystem of the Everglades.
The potential damage is twofold. Firstly, the datacenter's energy demands could exacerbate toxic bacterial blooms in Lake Okeechobee and its surrounding waterways.
