A small town in Oregon is celebrating after officially stopping a large data center from being built in their community. The La Pine City Council voted unanimously to reject the proposed project. The proposal called for a massive 20-megawatt data center, which raised concerns among residents about energy use, water consumption, noise, and whether the project would truly benefit the community. BlackRock and Palantir frequently appeared in local community discussions, even though the data center was being built by Boxminer.

Most Albertans have probably seen the headlines about companies wanting to invest in and build AI data centres in Alberta. Many Albertans are excited about that, but others have legitimate questions. Here are the answers to 6 common questions on everything from power to water to land use and how these investments will financially benefit our province now and in the future.

🚨 Another one bites the dust. Over 100 Apex residents packed a town hall to push back against a massive data center proposal. This small town doesn’t even have a supermarket… yet they want to drop a huge energy-hungry data center right next to homes. Residents raised concerns about: • an already strained power grid • massive water usage • wildlife disruption • constant industrial noise One woman organized the community… and suddenly the room was full. Turns out when people actually show up and speak out, things change. And here’s the thing… Towns across the country are starting to push back on these projects. 👏 Proud of Apex. Proud of North Carolina.

A new HUGE data center campus called Project Open Sky is being planned in Oklahoma. The land will be over a square mile with 6 Data Centers One American family all built houses together on a compound, and the data center campus is planned less than 300 feet away from their homes The residents say they already have a water pressure issue and this is going to mean there won’t be enough water to farm or even for their homes The data center campus could use as 27.4 million gallons per year “They literally have an entire square mile and are pushing to get more — Cloverleaf Infrastructure is the company behind Project Open Sky, which is in talks to build a 633-acre campus with as many as 6 data centers on it” This is going to destroy the lives of the residents in this town

If you're in Mississauga or anywhere in the GTA where massive AI data centres are being proposed, this is worth watching. Everyone talks about the investment and the AI boom. Not enough people are talking about what comes with it. Enormous power demands. Massive water consumption. Noise. Pressure on the grid. Environmental concerns. And in some cases, surprisingly few permanent jobs considering the sheer size of these projects. I'm not against data centres. They're obviously going to be part of our future. But before cities start rolling out the red carpet, residents should know exactly what they're signing up for and what the community is actually getting in return. This clip raises some questions Mississauga and the rest of the GTA should be asking right now. PLEASE SHARE.

Why has Blair suddenly changed his tune on the climate and how to generate energy in the U.K. why is it ok for British citizens to be bankrupted to pay ever increasing energy costs and be constantly told they need to reduce their energy useage and the public and farmers told they MUST conserve water at the same time as huge data centres and Ai centres are bing built which use MASSIVE amounts of energy and huge amounts of water. And all whilst planning laws are changed overnight to stop residents and farmers complaining about the destruction of thousands of acres of land to build solar farms. It’s bullshit, a massive scam from top to bottom.

The arms race of quant funds making vids about water cooling AI data centres is unreal. Hudson River Trading uses one in Norway cooled by fjord seawater. It’s piped into a former mountain-side mineral mine now hosting GPU racks. Heated water sent to a land-based salmon farm nearby and the farm produces 15,000 tonnes of salmon a year. Salmon are very sensitive to water temperature and the data center water (that came in cold from the fjord) is now heated to a salmon-friendly 20°C. When is the RenTech data centres water optimization video dropping?

Residents in Crowell, Texas are being forced to live with constant artificial daylight because of Google’s AI data center that is being built right next to them Residents report severe 24/7 light pollution that creates artificial daylight at night (photo proof shown) The facility runs 24/7 with intense lighting that turns the sky bright all night long There is also a constant mechanical humming noise from cooling fans, HVAC systems, and generators that runs nonstop The project is a massive new hyperscale AI data center being built right next to the tiny rural town of Crowell with a population of around 800 people There are real health effects to humans for living with artificial sunlight at night Disruption of melatonin production leading to insomnia, anxiety, fatigue, and other issues. It’s described as “permanent jet lag.” These are exactly the complaints residents are making right now The project is part of Google’s massive $40 billion Texas investment: Google (Alphabet) announced plans for multiple hyperscale data centers in the region Residents from both political parties have packed town halls to protest the project, citing light pollution, noise, water usage, and threats to rural life, dark skies, and farming. Their leaders don’t care Residents feel the economic promises don’t outweigh the quality of life damage

Malaysia has restricted new data centre investments not linked to AI for the past two years due to high electricity and water usage. Short-term energy needs can still be met, but potential strain on the national grid and electricity tariffs must be considered, said PM Anwar Ibrahim. This comes in response to a US statistic showing that data centres consume around 4% of national electricity and millions of litres of water for server cooling.

What I saw at Alberta's anti-AI protest A $13 billion investment from Meta, the parent company of Facebook and Instagram, will see a new data centre built near Edmonton. But not all Albertans are on board with the development, and Rebel News heard from protesters opposed to the project. I went to a protest against an Alberta data centre the other day. It was a Sunday, in a small town, and 200 people showed up. That’s a lot. And unlike most protests I go to, where the protesters have no clue what they’re protesting about, everyone here had a lot to say. Even stranger, they didn’t try to block Rebel News. And the strangest thing was, one of the protesters was a die-hard Rebel News fan. So, are these protesters right? Are data centres something we should fear? The demand for computer processing is so huge these days — think of streaming a Netflix show or making a Zoom call — that the computing power doesn’t come from your laptop or your phone anymore. It comes from buildings stuffed with computers, called data centres. And as artificial intelligence becomes more commonplace, the need for data centres is going to grow. There’s a bit of a race between China and America on AI, and that’s fuelling some of the fevered growth, too. And to me, that’s an important point, and one that I put to a number of the anti-AI protesters: AI isn’t going away. The question is, do you want AI controlled by Communist China, or do you want it controlled by America? Which is more likely to respect privacy and freedom? That was the real fear of the people I spoke with. Their objections to the big $13 billion data centre being built in northern Alberta wasn’t really about its proposed water use (it will use less than a golf course) or it’s power use (it’s actually building its own $4 billion power plant). It’s about AI itself. AI is something to worry about, and to make sure that it’s done right. No doubt it will change many things in our lives. But protesting a computer factory in Alberta isn’t going to change the answers to that — all it might do is push some construction jobs down to Texas, or China itself. Watch the full video I did with Sheila Gunn Reid in Morinville, Alberta. I did my best to let the protesters have their say. I wasn’t surprised that there were climate activists there, but I thought it was weird that the Revolutionary Communist Party was out in such force. I should tell you, I just finished doing a lengthy interview with Nate Glubish, the Alberta cabinet minister in charge of data centres. I actually went up to the construction site of the big new data centre to interview him on location. I’ll have that video for you later this week. What do you think? Is opposition to this data centre just a front for opposing AI itself? And if so, isn’t AI just like the Space Race — it’s a race between us and China, whether or not we like it?

Georgia is basically turning into one large data center Get ready for this, there is no legal obligation for data centers to disclose how much water they will be using - Georgia currently has about 162 data centers already - They have an additional 141 new data centers planned - Combined these data centers will use 12+ GW or more of power, this is equivalent to the usage of 10 MILLION homes - Combined water usage estimate of 35+ billion gallons per year or higher Absolutely insane There is no comprehensive federal requirement for data centers to publicly report detailed water usage. A bill was introduced called “the Data Center Water and Energy Transparency Act” to mandate reporting of energy and water consumption to states and the EPA This is an issue, here’s one example The Quality Technology Services data center in Fayette County used 29–30 million gallons of water went unmetered and unbilled for months without initial detection. Residents complained about low pressure during drought conditions. The company later paid retroactively $150,000 but faced no fines
