Can we reduce AI’s environmental cost?

Artificial intelligence might seem invisible, yet it has a significant environmental impact — one that is difficult to quantify due to companies' lack of transparency with their data. 

So, to what extent should we be worried?  Is there a way to reduce the environmental cost of AI?
