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. Register and see the details in your time zone Fracking Fuels Data Centers: Protective Buffers Make Communities SaferWednesday, July 29 at 7 p.m. Eastern, with our friends at Protect PT, the Environmental Integrity Project (EIP) and FracTracker. You'll hear from:
Together they'll break down how the data center buildout proposed for Pennsylvania connects to more fracking and additional gas power plants, and where communities can win stronger protections. You'll leave understanding how these projects move forward, the harms they bring to nearby communities and the specific safeguards, like protective buffers, that keep communities safer. Whether you're already organizing in your area or just starting to track what's happening, this session is for you.
This webinar is part of the network's growing work to track the data center build-out and the drilling it drives, and to connect the people standing up for their communities. Can't make it live? Register anyway and we'll send you the recording. Hope to see you there, Ryan |

I hope their board members took note. As it happens, we just hosted a workshop on data center noise pollution, where I learned that a decibel reading is only part of the story. Continuous, low-frequency...
