GoKawiilGoogle clears 300 hectares of Finnish forest for data center without full approval
Google's Finnish subsidiary began clearing approximately 300 hectares of forest for a new data center project, despite ongoing environmental reviews. Finnish regulators have questioned the legality of the work, which was reportedly carried out before completing the required assessments, prompting an investigation into whether laws were violated. The company maintains compliance, but environmental groups dispute these claims, citing satellite images showing unapproved clearing.
