With the rise of AI, and companies, investors and shareholders spending more than they should on data centres, it isn't them who get the backlash or consequences, it's us common folk; we are having to face rising energy prices, water restrictions, and water contamination, not to mention the health issues.
Early studies suggest that data centres have been linked to headaches, illness and even heart problems; we shouldn't have to suffer and face the consequences of these billionaire companies, thanks to the constant noise which people have recorded as high as 500 decibels.
In Ireland, which has recently become a hot spot for data centres, they're having to pay up to 21% more on their energy bills, and when foreign wars are raging, and everything already costs enough, we shouldn't have to suffer through high energy prices.
It's going to be a hot summer, thanks to climate change, and we shouldn't let these massive companies dictate more of our lives, and data centres can rise the ambient air temperature as much as three degrees, which might not seem like much, but a global increase of 1.5° c has resulted in dangerously hot summers, and us beginning to lose our winters. There is already a water bankruptcy, and our resevoirs are running low without this extra strain.
In the UK, we have a beautiful countryside, and wildlife, but it is fragile, with us losing insects which are deeply important, introducing AI data centres would strike at the heart of our country. We cannot let our forests, plains, moors, and protected land become more fodder for soul, art eating AI.
The UK government is daring to say that AI data centres are necessary for the growth of our country, when all they would do is feed foreign billionaires, run on dirty fossil fuels, rip the soul from our countryside, and cost us more. The government, and many political parties are willing to allow us to suffer for their money, but without us, they don't have power.
We don't want dirty data centres infesting our country, and if politicians want to win the popularity contest, they have to listen.
We should be allowed, to make decisions about our own counties to vote on, like a local election, the right to ban data centres. We should have the power over our country, not trillionaires, billionaires and millionaires who couldn't care less for our lives.
