SUMMARY:Environmental Health\, Data Centers\, and the Case for Equity in the Southeast
DESCRIPTION:This webinar is hosted by Grantmakers In Health(opens in new tab) and co-sponsored by Appalachia Funders Network(opens in new tab)\, Blue Sky Funders Forum(opens in new tab)\, and Health and Environmental Funders Network(opens in new tab).  \nThe Southeast faces some of the nation’s most persistent environmental health challenges\, which are a product of decades of disinvestment\, discriminatory policy\, and regulatory failure. Now\, a new concern is emerging as the region has become a prime target for massive data center development. These facilities can use millions of gallons of water per day\, strain regional grids\, and compound existing health challenges. \nThis webinar opened with a grounding in the region’s environmental health landscape and what the data center build-out means for community health. The conversation then turned to a community leader\, whose work has reshaped national policy\, followed by a funder with investment in environmental health\, who shared what meaningful partnership and effective philanthropy looks like on the ground. \n\nPanelists Included: \n\n\nAdrienne Hollis(opens in new tab)\, Vice President\, National Wildlife Federation\nLaTricea Adams(opens in new tab)\, President\, Young\, Gifted and Green\nShilpa Joshi(opens in new tab)\, Director\, The Climate and Clean Energy Equity Fund\n\n  \nResources from the webinar:  \n\nNew York Times\, “How Meta Uses A.I. Data Centers to Avoid Billions in Federal Taxes”(opens in new tab)\nYoung\, Gifted\, and Green\, “Community Benefits Agreement v.s. Community Benefits Ordinance”(opens in new tab)\nNAACP\, “Reducing the Harm of Data Centers”(opens in new tab)\nGallup\, “Americans Oppose AI Data Centers in Their Area”(opens in new tab)
