Fighting Data Centers – General Call to Discuss Tactical Wins, State-by State
Third Actors everywhere are rising to the moment and fighting back against data centers where we live. Join your fellow members and members of the Campaigns team to review strategic pathways to victory, and to discuss what wins (and risks) we're seeing across the country.
Driven by the explosion of AI infrastructure and its immense resource demands, data centers have become a highly salient, contentious, and rapidly evolving political and environmental issue. A lack of public oversight threatens to only further enrich the ultra-wealthy technocrats who are undermining our democracy.
The window is closing for rational voices to intervene. Third Act is convening monthly calls on data centers this year to cover multiple strategic pathways to counter the threat: we’ll cover legal, corporate, political, and narrative approaches to winning these fights. Last month, we hosted a webinar on legal and regulatory approaches; this month is to discuss what kinds of tactical wins we’re seeing across states.
