Stand up against Musk’s polluting Memphis datacenter
Recently, xAI—a company founded by Elon Musk—began operating a massive datacenter in South Memphis. To meet the facility’s huge power needs the company set up polluting, methane gas turbines without getting a permit. These turbines release harmful chemicals like formaldehyde and worsen smog problems across Memphis. Help us tell the Shelby County Health Department that it should deny xAI’s permit.
TAKE ACTIONTell Congress to stand up for wildlife
Tell Congress to stand up to President Trump’s reckless firings, funding cuts, and rollbacks to wildlife protections, and defend the South’s wildlife, including the public lands and workers they depend on.
TAKE ACTIONStop burning fossil fuels for data centers
Georgia Power is breaking its promises to retire coal plants and doubling down on dirty and unpredictably priced fossil fuels. Tell the Public Service Commission Georgia doesn’t want more dirty, expensive fossil fuels.
TAKE ACTIONProtect South Carolina, not utility profits
The South Carolina House just passed a damaging bill that allows utilities to quickly double down on major methane gas plants and pipelines in the name of profit. Let SC senators know we don’t want more pollution harming our communities, health, and the environment.
TAKE ACTIONStand up for our public lands workers
No one voted for the destruction of our public lands. The Trump administration’s decision to recklessly fire thousands of public lands workers puts our national parks, forests, and wildlife refuges at risk. Stand up for our public lands and the people who protect them.
