• Pennsylvania's proposed data centers are bringing strangers together in protest (npr.org) — Archbald residents are uniting across generations and politics to oppose six proposed data center campuses that could bring up to 50 warehouse-sized facilities to their small borough. Locals have formed the Stop Archbald Data Centers group, packed public meetings, and are weighing promised economic benefits against concerns over health, environment, infrastructure, and higher utility costs.
