Which Side of the Fight Are You Interested In?
There are many ways to help protect Morgan County from this harmful data center development. Choose the area that matches your interests and skills to make the biggest impact in our fight.
Environmental
The data center threatens our environment through massive water consumption, air pollution from backup generators, noise pollution that disrupts wildlife, and industrial development destroying farmland and natural habitat.
How You Can Help:
- Monitor and document environmental impacts
- Attend environmental impact hearings
- Connect with environmental advocacy groups
- Research water usage data and air quality concerns

- Help research zoning and environmental law violations
- Document permit violations or procedural irregularities
- Connect with legal professionals willing to help

How You Can Help:

- Analyze tax incentive packages and their true costs
- Connect with local business owners opposed to the project
- Document infrastructure costs borne by taxpayers
- Research property value impacts from similar projects

- Attend town halls and public meetings
- Research candidate positions on development issues
- Organize voter registration drives
- Support candidates who prioritize community protection

- Research health studies from similar facilities

- Organize community meetings and events
