Can you tell me if I am correct in assuming that: Non-closed loop cooling, evaporates much more water than than just regular humans living regular family lives for a given region.

That is, if you have a dam that serves water to 100 families, a data center would need the water of 50, 60, 70, or more of those families.

The compound effect then is that the poorest families then become water-challenged.
