⚠️ NEW REPORT⚠️ While data center companies typically focus on the amount of water they use to cool the technology running within their facilities, the water used for power generation to meet their massive energy needs has an even greater impact. Our new report, Water Behind the Watts, examines this largely overlooked water demand across seven states that together host about half of all U.S. data centers. In these states, water-intensive generation supplies much of the grid—and many of the plants supplying that power are in regions facing water stress or drought.

Shareholder proposals are critical to holding corporate leadership accountable and protecting shareholder value. I’m joining a broad coalition asking @SECGov to reform the Rule 14-8a process, not abandon it. This will address staff burdens but keep a neutral referee on the field. That’s good for shareholders and the companies we invest in. ⬇️ ⬇️ investorrightsforum.com/new-…

NYC pensions’ new asset manager search could be a major accountability test. BlackRock & other managers seeking to handle public workers’ savings should meet the pensions’ climate standards — or lose business to firms that will. @SierraClub statement: sierraclub.org/press-release…
