Erin Brockovich Creates Map of AI Data Centers

Erin Brockovich is now focusing on AI data centers.

Erin Brockovich has launched a website to track AI data centers across the US. The website maps data centers that are already working and being built. People can also report new data centers in their area.

Erin Brockovich says that the US is quickly building AI infrastructure. In some places, data centers are welcome, but in others, they are opposed or stopped. The map shows how AI is growing and where there are problems.

Building data centers has become a big issue in local politics. Some communities are fighting against new data centers. Environmental groups and the NAACP are also involved.

Erin Brockovich taking on AI data centers is important.

In the 1990s, Erin Brockovich found out that a big company was hiding water pollution in California. She fought the company and won a big settlement of $333 million.

Erin Brockovich's story was made into a movie with Julia Roberts. The movie was a success and Julia Roberts won an Oscar for her role.

The website lists 33 working data centers, 44 under construction, and 27 planned. Users have also reported 2,716 data center locations across the US.

Most AI data center reports are from Texas, with 612 reports. One city in Texas, Sulfur Springs, has 297 reports.

People who reported concerns about AI data centers are worried about water, electricity, and the health of their community.

Big AI data centers use a lot of water, up to 5 million gallons per day. They also produce a lot of carbon dioxide, which is bad for the environment.

The website shows how people can make a difference. Many communities have stopped or paused AI data center construction due to public opposition. In one city, four council members were removed from office after a vote on an AI data center.

The website provides information on how people can get involved and make a change.

The topic is about activism and artificial intelligence.
