“A proposal for the world’s largest data centre has been submitted at Chapelcross in Dumfries and Galloway. If approved, the data centre would have a capacity of 1GW - bigger than any other in the world - using 7 million MWh of energy per year, equivalent to over two million homes. If the proposal goes ahead, the data centre will put a massive strain on Dumfries and Galloway’s energy grid and destroy the local natural environment. We need your help to reject this proposal.” https://greens.scot/ChapelcrossDataCentre #DataCentres #DataCentre #DataCenter #DataCenters #ChapelcrossDataCentre #Scotland #ScottishGreens #GreenParty #Green #Greens #ClimateChange #Climate #ClimateEmergency #ClimateCrisis @ScottishGreens@mastodon.scot

KI-Rechenzentren in den Orbit zu schießen ist absurd teuer, verschwendet Ressourcen und schadet dem Klima. Dazu kommt ein teures Problem: die Abwärme. Im Vakuum gibt es keine Luft, die Wärme abführt. Die Vorteile? Die Sonne scheint rund um die Uhr. Man braucht keine Baugenehmigung. Und anzünden kann man die Dinger da oben auch nicht. Letzteres wird in Zukunft vermutlich immer wichtiger werden. #ai #datacenters

At Trump's rally in #Ohio last night, #Trump rambled on and on about #DataCenters to dead silence. Of course, all #Republican electeds who aren't in dementia know this issue is wildly unpopular. But we know some people will drink the kool-aid no matter what. That's why we cannot know whether this woman was a real #MAGA or a resister trolling the candidates. Accidentally or deliberately, she made Ohio's R Senate candidate the face of data centers and Sherrod Brown pounced.

"If it wasn't for the data center boom, the US economy🚨would likely be in a deep #recession. It's no wonder that #Trump is going all in for them; he has nothing else to keep the #economy humming." -C Owiki " #DataCenters are booming. 🚨All other private #construction is shrinking." #AI companies🚨will need to find at least $4.2T a year in new revenue by 2031 to pay for their data center buildout, per Bain & Co. Despite the AI boom,🚨Silicon Valley is shedding #tech #jobs." -S Rattner #USPol

Big Tech is building its AI empire by consuming water, straining energy systems and taking over land, while billionaires pocket the profits and communities pay the price. But people everywhere are resisting. Our future is not theirs to exploit. https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026/sep/27/people-are-standing-up-and-fighting-back-north-devon-ai-datacentre #timetoresist #bigtech #tech #AI #datacenters

"In a 5-2 vote, the planning commission approved Digital Realty’s proposal to build a two-story, 450,000 square-foot data center along Lexington Avenue between 99th and 103rd streets near the Panasonic Electric Vehicle Battery Plant." However, "the total footprint has since shrunk from 3 million square feet to 1.5 million square feet as the relationship with the potential operator 'didn’t come to fruition'.” The Kansas City Star: Data center project moves forward in De Soto – over opposition. ‘Too much unknown’ https://www.kansascity.com/news/local/article317386837.html @KansasCityStar@flipboard.com #datacenters

I've decided to start a project to help neighbors of existing data centers and proposed data centers to monitor noise using <$300 field units. I haven't built it yet, but I have done two other monitor projects with success, so I do not anticipate this will be any different... just a different set of variables and sensors. Here's a page introducing the HDC Sound Monitor Project. (Just this page for now.) https://salemdata.net/HDC/HDC_Sound_Monitor.html #DataCenters #DIY #Noise #Environment #ESP32
