Stop the Rush to Build AI Data Centers Part 2

On October 28, four dozen climate and environmental advocates held a press conference outside of the state Public Service Commission to call upon the PSC and Governor Hochul to do a better job in analyzing the various environmental, public health and financial challenges related to the construction of data centers.

In part 2 of our coverage, we hear from Eric Weltman of Food and Water Watch, Emma Paulsen of NYPIRG, and Kathy Nolan of Catskill Mountain Keeper. This has been Mark Dunlea for Hudson Mohawk Magazine.
