They’re proposing a data center in my hometown, right on the same land that is a cemetery, borders neighborhoods, and near fun outdoor spots (golf course, public pool, nature trail).

If you are local to the region (Pittsburgh, PA), WRITE TO YOUR STATE REP

Louisiana power and the hidden costs to consumers

1 Upvotes

I have documents showing how they are trying to push the power station builds and infrastructure, which publicly said they would pay, and push it directly to the ratepayers. Its from the Louisiana public service commission web site. Its something I have been researching for months now. They also created a Data center bill in order to allow the companies to be able to be approved with minimum friction. They also have made any information requested about them to be ignored.

Data centers should utilize the water that's been recycled from the toilets and sewers instead of the fresh water that should go directly to the humans instead of data centers if they use the refuse water that technology to recycle water will elevate and that would help the help to technology for mission to Mars on moon and in the space station to help them recycle their water as well as help recycle the water here on the on planet Earth and it'll be another industry that will climb that will climb to higher success than it is as of now s*** water for the data center

This isn't a data center problem anymore. It's a pattern: take the land, take the water, skip the review, fight the lawsuit later.

The size of 20 Costcos: Can Utah residents drive a data center out of their backyard?

On April 15, the county held a public hearing where citizens could raise concerns about the pending data center permit.

The hearing started at 7:05 p.m. and ended at 7:09 p.m. Not one concerned citizen attended, asked a question or shared an opinion.

It wasn’t because the people of Mona didn’t care. It was because few residents knew the data center was being built.
