Data centers are slowing down our transition to renewables. Ask your governor to support a two-year moratorium today. environmentamerica.org/cente…

Tell your governor: Data center moratorium now

Data centers shouldn't come at the expense of human and environmental health. Let's slow down and make sure we get this right.
