Your utility bill is about to get much, much higher. Why? AI’s rapid expansion is driving up energy demands, so electric companies and tech firms are making us, the customers, pay the price. 🔌
AI data centers cause incredible strain on water and electricity resources, not to mention the environmental impact they have in the neighborhoods they’re built in. But where are they being built? In Black and brown communities like Memphis, Tennessee; Prince William County, Virginia; Forest Park, Georgia; Jenkinsville, South Carolina, and more. We need Congress to intervene.
We need our members of Congress to:
⚡Hold hearings on the link between AI development, data center expansion, and utility rates
⚡Demand racial and environmental impact reviews before facilities are built
⚡Support legislation that pushes utility costs to companies–not customers
You can help us demand change! Learn more about this issue in this post, and click the link in our bio to send a letter to members of Congress now...
