This is the greenwash playbook: promise 1GW of renewables, get the consent and the headlines, quietly retreat to 'grid served' once nobody's checking. Planning conditions need teeth.

Residents 'deeply concerned' by the sheer scale of proposal of huge solar farm in Northamptonshire described as 'national disgrace' trib.al/x1V2mpf
Thank you to @NIAbbot & @LBC for talking about the nightmare that is the onslaught of hyper-scale data centres. Lives, land & wildlife are being threatened. THIS HAS TO STOP NOW. Listen to our team chat to Nick #DataCentres
Which would you rather have? Food, wildlife & countryside or a polluting data centre? #stoplongmarsh #DataCenters #Farmers
Dear @andyburnham, please 🙏🏻 hear the global pushback on data centres. Protect our countryside. Halt all new projects outside brownfield sites, including Norfolk’s Longmarsh & Apex. @mrjakehumphrey

Great to see so many people joining the days of action across Europe against data centres.
I've put down a motion in Parliament for a national moratorium on new AI data centres and for the Government to work with communities to fully assess their environmental and local impacts.

Good Afternoon dear friends and followers, pleas take a few minutes to watch this heartbreaking video.
It shows the proposed DESTRUCTION OF A VILLAGE local to me by Net Zero.
I have no words 😭
If you can donate to the Fund please do however little is one step forward.
🙏🏻
One small Suffolk village. Now a mega hub for energy infrastructure: 2 lines of 400kv pylons, 2 more proposed; substations; converter station; batteries; solar. All exposed in the event of hostile action, but no-one is listening:

This is NOT a game Scotland needs to play. Listen to this. The size of these monstrosities (23 of them!), the noise, the power consumption, the water consumption, the nature destruction.
We do NOT need to have them here.
New documents released by the Scottish government under a freedom of information request show that data centres could cause water shortages, higher energy bills and power cuts.

A petition with almost 55,000 signatures was handed into Google’s flagship London office this week, calling for the withdrawal of their controversial data centre plans for an Essex Local Wildlife Site. The Thurrock Data Centre plans make a mockery of Google’s sustainability claims. buglife.org.uk/news/more-tha…

Wow! I hadn't heard of the project in Norfolk. I used to live not far from that proposed data centre. I know the area, and I know the UK can't feed itself as it is, so why the F*CK would they destroy 4,695 acres of prime arable farmland for a data centre? It is utter madness.

Fury in tiny rural Norfolk village which faces being 'blighted forever' by huge data centre and solar farm bigger than Heathrow trib.al/weSRomw
Stop Longmarsh retweeted
There are plans being submitted to build the largest data centre in the UK on rural land next to a nature reserve in Norfolk.
We can t allow our countryside to be stolen in this way. We need data centres, but this application is wrong on every level.

Thank you for highlighting this!
"We cannot eat data." ❌
A petition opposing plans for a 4,700-acre solar, battery storage and data centre development in West Norfolk has attracted more than 39,000 signatures.
Campaigners fear the project could threaten productive farmland and food security, while the developer says it would bring significant investment and jobs to the area.
