You are invited to join us for our next speaker in the Rural Data Center Forum series hosted by the Rural Power Coalition. This call will be held next Wednesday, October 14th at 2PM ET/ 1PM CT/ Noon MT/ 11AM PT/ 10AM AK.

Join us on Wednesday, October 14 for a presentation and discussion with Marc Boom of the Environmental Protection Network (EPN) on how growing data center electricity demand can increase pollution from power plants and on-site generation. Marc will also speak about why some of the resulting health impacts can occur far from the data centers themselves, and the federal policy changes EPN is tracking as this build out accelerates.

In September, EPN released a report titled The Hidden Health Costs of AI Data Centers. This report focuses on the health impacts of energy demand caused by the AI data center build out, and how the EPA is failing to do its duty to protect people.
