It can be put this way….you have the right to help us fight the so-called data center trend.
There are many issues known and unknown with the generalized term “data centers.” One needs to be informed to overcome the disinformation and propaganda in favor of these societal and cultural disruptors.
There are many categories of what is termed “centers” with specific use, size, engineered operations, etc. They can be anywhere from a computer room, a small server room to a larger server room, off-site rooms, small and large off-site centers, to hyperscale centers. The short list is this:
General Data Storage Center
Secured data center
Bit Coin Minning
Data Mining
AI centers
AI Training
Mixed Use Centers
This is why they are termd centers as they have different purposes.
There are some 4, 287 centers in the USA and the numbers are growing rapidly. The national data center map is updated regularly. The federal government has given huge incentives for new centers commissioned before January 1, 2030.
Project developers say a lot to get their foot in the door but have no data on how much holds true to the end.
Municipalites ancd countties do not have any codes in place of which to protect themselves and the citizens therey sever from the harm centers cause.
The city of Flagstaff Arizona has taken the proper course with proactive code developement. This is one waay to not only protects everyone but prevent unscrupulous projects from poping up.
The trend now is for rural area land exploitation.
