Tell Congress: No new data centers!

Energy-hungry data centers are driving up our electric bills and handcuffing us to climate-wrecking fossil fuels. While Big Tech profits, the rest of us are left to pay the price.

We’re calling on Congress to support a moratorium on new data centers – but they won’t take action if they don’t hear from you.

Send a message to your senators today.

Personalize your message to your senators:

Right now, 1,489 new data centers are currently being planned or are already under construction across the country. If they’re completed, they’ll double U.S. data centers’ total combined energy demand by 2028, from 80 to 150 gigawatts, and require about as much energy as the entire country of Spain.

Where is that energy going to come from? And how much is it going to cost us?

Household energy prices are already growing at twice the rate of inflation. We can’t afford data centers driving that any higher. And we certainly can’t afford to build new fossil fuel power plants to meet this data center demand – not when the science shows us we must end our reliance on coal, oil and gas in order to avoid climate catastrophe.

The massive expansion of data centers is happening fast. The recently introduced “Artificial Intelligence (AI) Data Center Moratorium Act” would hit pause and give us time to fairly consider the risks to our communities and our climate. I urge you to support the moratorium today.

Sincerely,
