We are asking you, as neighbors, to commit to 10 conversations. Some might be short: a lot of people are ready and willing to sign the petition. Some might be longer: maybe they have a question about the effort. Some conversations might surprise you, and this is where the real magic happens. This is a grassroots effort run on the love, strength, and stubborn will of neighbors.
This petition seeks to amend the Ohio Constitution in order to ban the construction of data centers that consume over 25 megawatts (MW) of energy per month. 25 MW is the threshold between a manageable, community-friendly facility and an industrial scale data center that can use as much power as a small town. Our petition simply says that anything bigger than 25 MW should be prohibited. Ohio already has approximately 200 data centers and does not need any more.
If we all commit to 10 signatures each, we WILL change the future together.
The time is now. Please don't wait! Print the petition packet from the link above, get 10 signatures, and mail it in! Below are circulator instructions and talking points to get you started. You don't need permission to start getting signatures!
