This is mental that we sell arable land to build expensive, low quality condos or big buildings like a data center.

Yes, absolutely. Easy to turn viable farmland to bullshit data center, almost impossible to do the former. The datacenter boom causes us to act against our collective interests.

Cities would rather pollute a new parcel of land than fix the contamined ones.

There is a city nearby that has an abandoned industrial district and they plan on building a new industrial district instead of razing the old one and decontaminate it.

And shocker, they want to make the new district on farm land.
