We’re taking on the South’s data center buildout
SHARED FOR EDUCATION AND INFORMATION ABOUT THE ADVERSE IMPACTS OF DATA CENTERS AND THEIR DECEPTIVE TACTICS! Tell me if this sounds acceptable to you: A private company comes into your community to build a data center. To get it done, they cut secret deals with local governments. They hide information about the project from your neighbors. And when that data center does get built, it spews air pollution, generates constant noise, sucks up your community’s water, and gets fueled by dirty methane gas. Meanwhile, your power bill keeps going up. It all sounds like a movie plot, but this is how data centers are getting built in communities across the South. It’s why SELC, powered by your generosity, is developing a playbook for fighting back. And it’s why I’m humbly asking for your support today. Your advocacy is so important to SELC’s mission, and now a group of donors will match your gift $1 for $1 to help us pump the brakes on data centers....
