Thank you for this article! It is so informative. I live in Logan. This helped me understand the issue of the data center so much more clearly. I signed the petition!

Thank you for this! I appreciate the specific numbers and facts. Thank you for focusing the lens on the right personalities in this disaster. This has felt so immensely upsetting at a core level! Thank you for the info on ways to push back. I've been watching organizing spaces for things I can do.

Thanks for this article. Very informative! Let’s all get busy and show them how we really feel about their proposed data center!

I do not care what your politics are. I do not care how old or young you are. I do not care how much money means to you. WATER is essential to life -

Read that over and over again until it gets through to your brain.. Water is ESSENTIAL - that is not fantasy. That is fact. Fox cannot make it go any other way. Spin will not make it untrue. WATER! We cannot live without water.

We can live without ChatGPT. We can live without AI. We can live no matter what party is in power. We can live without a ballroom. We can live without the GOP. We can live without TV, radio and all the other elaborate nonsense - We cannot live without water.

We do not need many Data Centers — WE NEEE WATER. Plants need water. Animals need water. For Christ’s sake, WE NEED WATER. There is no other reality.

Another banger of savvy hot takes from Elevate. I read that the data center developers withdrew their water rights, is it worth filing a protest petition still, or should we wait until/if they refile?

Very cleverly written! The humor is wonderful. The methods and project of the data center is unconscionable.
