DATA CENTERS ARE AS NECESSARY AS BREATHING But because of a really effective propaganda campaign likely funded by China (who funded all the climate change nonsense so we would kneecap our own economy) to make sure we can’t/won’t build what will the backbone of the economy. There is a data center being built near Garden of the Gods that is JUST NOW getting pushback even though it’s been through the entire permitting process. My friend Ross Smith, who has experience actually building data centers, took the time to put together this website with the latest truth about data centers. I say latest truth, because a LOT of the opposition pertains directly to things that can be mitigated and ARE being mitigated as we speak.
