When couples disagree about data center environmental impact and career choices

My partner works for a cloud company and I'm in environmental advocacy and we keep having the same fight about whether their job is fundamentally incompatible with our values around climate change. We both care deeply about the planet but we can't find a way to talk about data center energy use without it becoming about their career versus my principles.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Two people with shared values are struggling to reconcile competing loyalties when one person's livelihood directly involves environmental trade-offs.
