WISCONSIN WANTS YOU!
to decide our future. Not Big Tech.
Hyperscale AI data center development has proven that Big Tech doesn't have our interests in mind. Build Wisconsin Better brings Wisconsinites together to decide a future we actually want to live in. -Charlie Berens

WE SAW WHAT AI DATA CENTERS DON’T WANT YOU TO SEE
We investigate one of the world’s largest AI data centers, using thermal drone footage to reveal the hidden pollution powering the AI boom. As companies race to build the future of AI, residents and experts warn that fossil fuels, secrecy, and weak regulation may be putting communities at risk

AI Data Centers & Our Communities
Brockovich AI Data Center Reporting
An initiative by Erin · Environmental Advocate
I am watching as YOU, the communities show up and speak out. In the famous words of Mark Twain … “The secret of getting ahead is getting started,” so let’s go!
— Erin"
Kairos Data Center Campaign Support HOTLINE
The movement to mitigate, delay, or outright stop the massive and unregulated expansion of hyperscale AI data centers is one that is activating and energizing communities across the United States and around the world. This movement has been fueled by grassroots resistance, with residents rising up to defend their communities often without prior experience organizing or mounting a campaign. Knowing how to organize your community to win is a skill set that can be learned. That's where we come in!
Erin Brockovich Is Taking On Data Centers
GREAT OVERVIEW IF YOU'RE NEW TO THE ISSUE
After scores of people wrote to her about the alarming influx of hyperscale projects, Erin launched Brockovich Data Center Reporting—which received nearly 4,000 submissions in its first month alone. She sits down with Jon to discuss everything she’s learned, what the industry gets wrong about the backlash, and whether there’s a way to build what we need without screwing over the people who have to live with it.
