I am just unreasonably excited to introduce you to Chapter 2 in @climatecabineteducation.org's series offering concrete, actionable policy solutions for lawmakers facing a tsunami of data center proposals.
This one is good, y'all.

The question is not whether states will face these financial, environmental, and health risks from hyperscale developments — it is whether lawmakers act before irreversible infrastructure commitments are already made.
This plain language report is the second in a 5-part series. Our next installment will get into specific policy responses to manage these risks. But to manage them, we first need to understand them.
That's why we have created this comprehensive, highly readable guide as a decisions support tool.
Every hyperscaler proposal raises 3 questions:
- Who pays?
- Who benefits?
- Who bears the consequences if projections prove wrong?
The decisions made over the next 12–24mo will determine how costs and risks are allocated for decades to come.
We are helping lawmakers navigate this challenge

Knowing how to manage this risk requires understanding the many axes that this risk exists along. Every aspect of our existing regulatory frameworks is being challenged by the rise of hyper scale loads, which can be overwhelming and obscure the available solutions.
We break it down for you.
