EMF health effects
Data centers are being fast-tracked at the federal level despite documented human health and environmental harm. Data centers bring together nearly every type of pollution from air, water, land to harmful noise, EMF, and fire risk. Yet regulatory frameworks in place to allow development, lack the holistic oversight needed to address these compounding, multi-system impacts. Communities are blindsided by well-financed corporate pushes, while existing policies evaluate only a few hazards in isolation, creating massive loopholes that fail to protect public health and the environment.
Hyperscale data centers are enormous industrial-facilities that can span hundreds of acres and contain hundreds of thousands to millions of servers. They require massive amounts of electricity, water cooling infrastructure, transmission lines, diesel generators, and industrial equipment.

Using thermal drone footage to reveal hidden pollution powering the AI boom, we investigated ‘Stargate’ one of the world’s largest AI data centers in Abilene, Texas. As companies race to build the future of artificial intelligence, residents and experts warn that fossil fuels, secrecy, and weak regulation may be putting communities at risk.

My testimony on the science on health risks of EMF from data center-driven powerlines and substations. Montgomery County is considering a 2-year moratorium on data centers until proper regulatory oversight processes are in place. We have a 6-month moratorium right now via the County Executive.
A substantial body of scientific research on EMF health effects links exposure to cancer, dementia, miscarriage, sperm damage, and a range of cellular effects. https://substack.com/@theodorascarato/note/c-280292902

Safety first
There is safety in numbers. This explains why a weak animal moves into the center of a herd and why the primitive human brain sustains herd mentality [follow the crowd]. Perhaps AI data centers could be leveraged to unite humans around a common intention to safeguard our species and home planet b/c resonance trumps resistance.
To be continued.
