Webinar: AI Data Centers in Your Backyard: Who Is at Risk? The Center for Progressive Reform will explore how artificial intelligence (AI) requires the use of energy-intensive data centers. These facilities are forecasted to significantly increase global electricity demand. Some utilities in states across the country are building more fossil fuel infrastructure that directly contributes to climate change to account for this growing electricity demand. AI data centers also prompt questions around public and environmental health impacts, particularly in communities already overburdened by climate pollution. Tuesday, July 22 • 1:00 PM
