Third Act Arizona

What damn good does it do to plant a million trees in #Tucson, if all we're going to do is allow #Amazon to guzzle a whole town's worth of drinking water a year, bust our energy grid, and create total light pollution...all for 75 jobs? #ProjectBlue

Say NO to #ProjectBlue, the massive, water guzzling, grid busting, noisy, dirty #Amazon #DataCenter planned for #Tucson, #Vail and #CoronaDeTucson. #AI #PimaCounty #Arizona ⚡💦🐴💩

Hopefully we can stop it here before takes our precious water and burns more fossil fuels to run it.

We sent letters to Tucson Mayor and Council opposing Project Blue Amazon data center because of unsustainable water usage, exorbitant energy demand, lack of long-term jobs and non-compliance with Tucson’s Climate Action Plan. bit.ly/ProjBlue3rdA...

❌ Vendor payments stop → Small businesses struggle
❌ Manufacturing slows → We rely more on foreign suppliers

This is quite blunt and scary. Extreme heat is deadly and cutting funding for programs that save lives is NOT acceptable. #showyourstripes
