There are dozens of causes for folks to post about, discuss, support or protest. How to choose what to be involved in is not easy when so many speak to our hearts.
Data centers and BESS (battery energy storage stations) are two very hot topics. There is a serious issue in my community about the proposal for a very badly located BESS. It boggles my mind how stupid the location is for such a facility.
If you aren’t familiar with those issues, then I encourage you to read about them using various sources.
I’ve listened to videos recording the noise data centers create. How anyone can pollute the environment and cause people that level of physical harm is, I feel, an absolute outrage.
Know what your state government is doing.

From what I've read, data centers use exhorbitant amounts of water to cool their 'machinery' and that alone is enough to justify campaigning against them.
ReplyDeleteMaryanne,
DeleteThere are videos and reports of people with very little water pressure because of data centers.

Data centres use a lot of energy and with the growth of AI more will be needed!
