EXCLUSIVE: Data Center Cheat Sheet From Parents Group Helps Families Sort Good From Bad

A conservative parents’ group is telling families that not every data center coming to their town is bad news, the Daily Caller News Foundation has learned.

American Parents Coalition released a guide laying out what parents should demand from data center developers before projects break ground, according to a copy shared exclusively with the DCNF. This comes as the race to build data centers to meet the demands of artificial intelligence has fueled backlash nationwide over water use, noise and electricity bills.

“Parents have enough on their plates and should not have to become infrastructure experts to understand how a proposed data center will affect their family and community,” Alleigh Marré, executive director of American Parents Coalition, said in a statement to the Daily Caller News Foundation. “Companies have a unique opportunity to build goodwill, add value, and be welcomed within a community by outlining and negotiating terms that work for both the industry and the safety and security of our shared future.”
