Mean Not Green Facebook Machine

Can't we all just get along?  Apparently not.  Greenpeace is pissed at Facebook.  Facebook is building a $200 million dollar data-center to store information for it's 500 million users.  Creepfest.  Anyway, Greenpeace is so mad they even took out a Facebook page to prove it.

Facebook is using coal and 30 mega watts of electricity to power it's new facility.  Don't know what that really means? It's fine, neither do I, but apparently it's not good.  According to Greenpeace, Facbeook is taking the cheap way out and could be using clean energy to keep it's stalker station running. Check the video below for a better explanation.
