This week's #BlockAndBuild with @mediajustice.bsky.social's @myaishahayes.bsky.social, @nodesertdatacenter.com's Vivek Bharathan, and Memphis Community Against Pollution's @keshaunpearson.bsky.social was a complete banger. convergencemag.com/podcast/orga...

Watch @moreperfectunion.bsky.social's overview on how @nodesertdatacenter.com and community organizers resisted Amazon's shady plan to build a major data center in Tucson. Defeating the proposal, their story shows how our communities are stronger than corporations. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mn5t...

An ordinance passed tonight adds oversight and transparency for companies seeking millions of gallons from the Tucson water system

Data center developers: We need to build this necessary infrastructure close to your house and drain your water and push up your power bills so the university and businesses can get data faster. Proximity is critical! Also data center developers: SPACE COMPUTERS!!!

Last week in the lead-up to the city council vote, @moreperfectunion.bsky.social came to Tucson to tell this story. Here it is, from the days prior to our city council voting to end plans to build the data center: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mn5t...

Underwater data centers?? Noooooope nope nope nope! www.bbc.com/news/science...

More good news! Tract, the developer behind this project, withdrew their application in a big victory for the community members who opposed it! Like us, they continue their work to protect their environment and resources. Here's their website: nodatacentermooresvillenc.com

I'm a guest on It Could Happen Here with my friend @jamesstout.bsky.social , this time talking about something else we should all care about: the very biosphere we exist in: omny.fm/shows/it-cou...

The UK government to AI companies: invest in the UK, we will deregulate and build data centers! Let us grovel at your feet, please, tech gods favor us The UK government to the people: delete your emails and photos, you peasants

In a new digital twist to environmental individualisation of responsibility, the UK government is now advising people to “[d]elete old emails and pictures” in data centres to help with the current drought. www.gov.uk/government/n...

we got our electric bill in this house and were like WTAF?!?!?!?! it went up 60% from last month due to the Intel Data Centers that moved into town, and now the city residents are footing the bill. RIDICULOUS.

Want to see billboards in every major city that just say 'Power Bill Too High? Thank "Generative AI"' and then a link to a website all about "AI" and data center energy and water use

In solidarity with the people of Mooresville, NC, who are opposing the construction of a Tract data center in their community. www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

Local reporting uncovered Amazon was behind the water-guzzling data center slated for the desert. Residents fought against the data center. Today, the city council unanimously voted against Project Blue. If you care about local journalism that drives impact, consider donating to @azluminaria.org!

We learned from our from our neighbors in Phoenix that data centers have caused 94% of the increase in energy demand there. Yet consumers bear the cost in rising rates. That's one reason we fought back and WON, and your community can too! www.12news.com/article/mone...

& for those not above petty delight 🙋🏽 here are the faces of the Amazon data center developers as the unanimous no vote came in. They thought they could 🐂💩 and bully our desert city into giving up our 💧. They were wrong. 📸 Kathleen Dreier. Mad organizer props @nodesertdatacenter.com More in alt txt

HEY WE WON!!!

Communities in #Tucson have made it clear: Not one drop for data! Here’s how local organizers at a community meeting are showing up to stop #ProjectBlue, the latest proposed Amazon #DataCenter: www.kold.com/2025/08/05/t...

@moreperfectunion.bsky.social has been doing excellent work covering data centers. Here's a piece about how one operating by Meta has affected air quality and ground water outside Atlanta: www.youtube.com/watch?v=DGjj...

Check out @thirdactaz.bsky.social's letter opposing Project Blue, Amazon's data center in Southern Arizona: thirdact.org/arizona/2025...

We know from our Phoenix neighbors' experience with data centers that as consumers, we can expect our electricity bills to go up if Project Blue goes through. Data centers account for 94% of increasing energy demand in Phoenix, and working families have to subsidize that cost.

New evidence shows AI's thirst for power may be distorting the flow of power to US consumers (gift link): www.bloomberg.com/graphics/202...
