Keep our beautiful southern Ohio free from data centers. Join us at the Adams County Courthouse at 1:30pm to 4pm to stand together against the what “could be one of Ohio’s biggest power guzzlers”, a center that will “consume more than 20 times as much electricity as Adams County itself.” This won’t only affect Adams County but the surrounding as well especially with the possibility of them being built in almost every surrounding county too. It will be devastating. Data Centers cause extreme environmental and economic destruction. Environmental Impacts: Massive land use, little benefit Strain on fragile infrastructure Heavy water and power use Daily noise and light pollution Emissions and poor air quality 📢List of Data Centers to fight against.
