Where Microsoft's data centers stand

Water stress index · median of 112 data centers
25/100 · below average
Social friction index · median of 112 data centers
44/100 · average

Both indices describe the places where the sites stand, not how Microsoft operates them: a higher water score means scarcer water around the sites, a higher friction score more of the conditions that tend to come before local opposition. Methods: water stress index · social friction index.
