Don't Panic, Get Organized. Events on decision-making, rural campaign strategy, and plastic greenwashing

Hello Reader, It's a lot easier to take action and have influence when we have all the information we need. Thanks to leaders in this network, we're all able to track industry proposals, legislation (even if it's in a different state), and know when and where important decisions are taking place. Yesterday Mia and Katie from FracTracker Alliance shared more updates on the open tracker map (details posted in HHN), and next week we have 3 webinars on July 7th, 8th, and 9th covering different topics you might be interested in. See the network calendar here to register so you have access. ↓ Don't Panic, Get OrganizedA presentation with leaders from Tucker United, a grassroots coalition formed in 2025 after the discovery of plans for a massive gas- and diesel-fueled power plant to be located within 2 miles of their community to power a 10,000-acre data center complex ↓ The Data Center Decision Tree: A Strategic Guide for CommunitiesJoin staff from Fair Shake Environmental Legal Services, Buckeye Environmental Network, FracTracker Alliance, and Ohio River Valley Institute for a walkthrough of the Data Center Decision Tree and a discussion about how communities can use it to identify permitting, utility, financing, legal, communications, and organizing opportunities. ↓ Behind the Toxic Chemical Recycling CurtainHazardous chemicals on site at plastics “chemical recycling” and other types of industrial facilities put workers and communities at risk.

Hello Reader, Pennsylvania is being lined up for a wave of new data centers. Behind that build-out is a quieter story: more fracking and new gas power plants to run it all. The communities closest to this development are the ones who will carry the harms. On Wednesday, July 29, we're hosting a webinar about what's coming and how you can push for stronger protections.
