#BigTech's latest extraction scheme is stealing our water and electricity. That's why @mediajustice.bsky.social released, The People Say No: Resisting Data Centers in the South, a NEW report exposing their plays and harms in the South, as well as how we can all fight back. 👉 bit.ly/nodatacenters

Unless companies like @microsoft.com ensure that new data centers run on local, 24/7 renewable energy, we won't meet our climate goals and communities already overburdened with fossil fuel pollution will continue to face deadly health impacts. ia.acs.org.au/article/2025...

🚨 Six weeks before COP30, Brazil’s environmental agency has approved the final stage of licensing for Petrobras to drill at the Mouth of the Amazon. 🧵

If data centers are worried about having enough energy, may we point them toward the fact that solar + storage is great way to always cheap, clean energy on hand? https://apnews.com/article/big-tech-data-centers-electricity-energy-power-texas-pennsylvania-46b42f141d0301d4c59314cc90e3eab5

Our research on Microsoft’s data centers is out and it’s 😬 💡Huge energy demand (as much as New England by 2030!) 
⛽️ Fossil fuel reliance (most data centers in states with ≥50% FF grids) 
🏫Local impacts (data centers used to justify more gas) Learn more and take action: stand.earth/microsoft-ai

Oil + gas CEOs invest hundreds of millions in political contributions to rig the system in their favor 🤑💰 In return, politicians shower fossil fuel companies w/ $35 BILLION in annual giveaways, offering Big Oil a 30,000% return on investment 😱😱 Read: oilchange.org/paying-for-c...

🔔 #goodclimatenews alert 🔔 The renewable revolution is picking up speed. All across the globe, we’re seeing unprecedented growth and investment in clean energy – displacing fossil fuels and helping to reduce planet-heating emissions.

“Behind a miles-long gray wall in the central Mexico town of Colón, a Microsoft data center portends the future for other data centers in the country. Unable to plug into the energy grid, it ran on gas-powered generators for at least part of the year.” Cool. Cool cool cool.

Affordable housing doesn’t have to be dirty. The path to green, affordable housing is one and the same. Electric heat pumps are a key tool to climate-friendly housing. Read more here:

#BigTech is doing anything it can to avoid accountability for hogging peoples’ water, polluting their air, and driving up their electric bills with their dirty data centers. 🤦‍♀️ But here’s the good news: we can do something about it. Watch this video to learn how 👇

Hurricane Katrina devastated communities in New Orleans over 20 years ago – killing 1,392 people and displacing 1.5 million. After experiencing the fallout, youth climate activists were spurred into action to fight climate change, environmental racism, and structural inequality.

Big Oil spent nearly half a BILLION dollars in last year’s election cycle. Now, they’re coming to collect — and they’re getting a big return on investment. Watch. youtu.be/aDQXiNlM5iM?...

My thoughts on the new federal gov agency to build homes: “Yes, we desperately need to build new affordable homes. We’ve also made commitments to tackle the climate crisis. Fortunately we can do both at the same time" (more thoughts/info in the piece) thepointer.com/article/2025...

In August, Amazonian leaders met for a crucial summit on the future of the forest. A major step: the creation of the MAPI. But while Indigenous voices called for strong action, the final declaration didn’t bring strong commitments to phase out fossil fuels.

Gran Tierra Energy, a Canadian oil company, claimed there were no Indigenous communities on their Colombian drill site. That was a lie. 🛢 The Inga Nation has lived there for generations and in 2015 won a court case proving it.

Brilliant. More of this, please!
