No More Data Centers and No More Diesel Generator Usage
 

We know the electrical grid will not support the data centers, and we are going to experience power outages because of our officials allow them to do anything they want. We should not allow an increase or really any usage of diesel generators that pollute our air. Do not change any requirement that allows them to increase their usage under any circumstances. Citizens are not being heard and by the time our officials realize the mistakes they have made it will be too late.
