This was intended to be absurd nonsense (or as I call it, irony).
I mean, if you think about this, burning stuff is also a part of nature, wildfires happens regularly, volcanos active right now, etc. Burning fossils like gas was(from caveman burning wood) and is still most popular way to generate energy among humans. I don't get what's so special about datacenters people find compared to any industrial facilities to fuel hateboner on most absurd nitpicks.
Arsenic is a part of nature, but it’ll still kill you. Burning the massive amount of co2 stored underground during the carboniferous period is not the same as random forest fires that burn co2 fixed a few decades ago.
