Erin Brockovich has created a tool to map data centers across the United States and provides a form for community members to report on these centers and their local impacts. The initiative aims to address the varying reception of data centers in different towns, where some are welcomed while others face delays or opposition.

Utah has approved the construction of a datacenter that will span over 40,000 acres, more than twice the size of Manhattan. The facility, known as Stratos, will require approximately 9GW of power, raising concerns about its energy consumption and impact on local water supplies.

SpaceX plans to launch one million satellites into orbit, which could significantly impact the atmosphere and the visibility of the night sky. Scientists express concern over the long-term effects of such a massive increase in satellite presence, including potential air pollution and emissions.

The New Brunswick City Council voted to cancel plans for an AI data center and will instead develop a public park on the site. AI data centers are known for their significant environmental impacts due to high electricity and water consumption, as well as the use of rare earth metals.
