Lake Qarun's fisheries are dead. Not a new crisis, but the predictable outcome of 50 years of 'development' prioritizing profit over ecological health. The same script, different lake. #EnvironmentalInjustice

'I can't drink the water' - life next to a US data centre Residents in rural Georgia say the data centre next door has disrupted their water supply.

"The cloud lives in over 10,000 data centres... most in the US.... With AI now driving a surge in online activity, that # is growing fast & with them, more complaints from nearby residents."

More AI,

US Department of Energy Intervenes to Prevent Power Plant Decommissioning Amid Growing Electricity Demand Concerns The U.S. Department of Energy, acting under the current administration, has intervened to prevent the scheduled decommissioning of two power plants. An order has been issued mandating the Eddystone Generating Station in Pennsylvania to remain operational throughout the summer, and a similar directive was recently given for the J.H. Campbell coal-fired power plant in Michigan. This action comes amid growing concerns about the nation’s electricity supply. The primary driver behind these interventions is a surge in electricity demand. Factors like the rapid expansion of artificial intelligence, the proliferation of data centers, and general economic activity are all contributing to this increased need for power. Concerns have arisen regarding potential electricity shortages and the risk of blackouts during the peak summer months, particularly as older coal-fired and nuclear power plants are being retired. This creates a strain on existing infrastructure. The situation is further complicated by criticisms leveled at PJM, the grid operator responsible for the region including Eddystone. Critics argue that PJM is unduly delaying the approval of new renewable energy projects, hindering the transition to cleaner energy sources and exacerbating the reliability issue. The queue of proposals awaiting PJM’s approval is overwhelmingly comprised of solar, wind, and battery storage projects, demonstrating the potential for a more sustainable energy future. The decision to keep the power plants running hasn't been without controversy. MISO, the grid operator for Michigan, publicly stated that the order for the J.H. Campbell plant was unnecessary, asserting that no energy emergency currently exists. Environmental groups, such as the Delaware Riverkeeper Network, have condemned the move, labeling it an "environmental injustice" due to the continued emission of pollutants and carbon dioxide.

In case anyone needs another reason to leave X & to support #TeslaTakedown to help depower him, here you go:

Musk's #XAI center in #Memphis is an example of #Racism & #EnvironmentalInjustice - putting his greed over the health of the local people.

The #ecologicalcrisis isn’t just about rising temperatures. It is about who profits, who suffers, and how systemic inequalities threaten us all.
