Consuming as much power as entire countries, these facilities <strong>drain electricity grids, devour precious freshwater<\/strong>, and <strong>revive fossil fuels<\/strong> to power risky, unchecked AI products.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Technology should accelerate a clean energy transition and strengthen communities. Instead, <strong>Big Tech<\/strong> billionaires and companies like Nvidia and Amazon are <strong>bypassing scrutiny<\/strong> ignoring the <strong>environmental footprint of the AI bubble<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Just as we wish we could turn back time to stop the dependency on oil drilling and prevent climate catastrophe, we now have a <strong>critical, once-in-a-generation window to stop Big Tech<\/strong> before it rewrites our energy future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>A freeze on new mega data centres<\/strong> is the circuit breaker we urgently need. Pausing approvals restores democratic control and stops destructive growth. <strong>Governments must enact strict rules<\/strong> to protect our water, <strong>mandate 100% new renewable energy<\/strong>, and <strong>protect communities<\/strong>, not servers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Join the movement by signing the petition.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div

has-large-font-size\">Join the global movement demanding an immediate halt to Big Tech\u2019s mega data centre build-out<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Across the globe, <strong>a wave of protest is rising<\/strong> against the relentless buildout of <strong>massive data centres<\/strong> fueled by the AI boom. Citizens are standing together to defend their rights against mega projects imposed without their consent. They refuse to let their lands be devastated, <strong>billions of liters of fresh water swallowed up<\/strong>, and <strong>electricity bills driven up<\/strong>. This is people power and it works! In Malaysia, the Netherlands and the US, <strong>local opposition has already forced the authorities to take action.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Tech giants like Amazon and Nvidia are both the architects of the AI frenzy and its chief beneficiaries. We have a <strong>critical, once-in-a-generation window to pause<\/strong> and rethink this unprecedented growth before it destroys the planet. The explosion of AI mega factories doesn&#8217;t just impact local communities; it poses a <strong>direct threat to our collective future<\/strong>. If we fail to stop them, they will <strong>ravage the climate<\/strong>, dragging dirty fossil fuels like gas and coal back into service. Their technology will be used to <strong>undermine our fundamental rights and freedoms<\/strong> through mass surveillance, data exploitation, and AI-enabled warfare.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Technology should make our collective future safer and better: fostering genuine human connection, advancing knowledge and science, and serving public well-being rather than corporations that already wield far too much power. <strong>A halt on new mega data centres<\/strong> is the circuit breaker we urgently need to force governments to <strong>hold tech giants accountable<\/strong>. We demand <strong>strict, enforceable rules<\/strong> that ensure technology <strong>serves the public good<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Join the movement by signing
