    Across the US, calls to halt data center construction have multiplied, as Americans grow increasingly concerned about risks of pollution, rising energy costs, and diminishing water supplies. At the federal level, Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) have introduced legislation seeking a possible nationwide construction ban. But Republicans are seemingly unlikely to embrace that legislation, given Donald Trump’s claim that such moratoriums would threaten America’s lead in the AI race.

  16. Europe’s lifelines are too old.

    Since the closure of the Strait of Hormuz, Europeans have paid more for their electricity – except in Spain.

    The average Spanish household has actually saved around €10 per month since the start of the war on Iran. Thanks to the country’s commitment to renewable energy.

    To replicate Spain’s success across Europe, massive upgrades are needed. And all stands and falls with our grids.
