The Citizens Action Coalition provides a case study on organizing against the rapid expansion of energy-intensive AI data centers by tech giants, highlighting their negative impact on decarbonization and ratepayer costs. Key arguments include the low job creation rate of data centers, the need for protective policies like exit fees and minimum bills, and environmental concerns such as high water usage and diesel pollution. The document also warns about tactics used by Big Tech to obscure projects and includes specific utility fights and local geographical threats.
