                        Big Tech Is Putting the World's Largest Freshwater 
System at Risk



                             Sign Now




                        The Great Lakes contain nearly 20% of the world's 
surface freshwater, supplying drinking water to more than 40 million people 
and supporting countless ecosystems, Indigenous nations, and local 
economies. Yet today, this vital resource faces a growing and underregulated 
threat: massive data centers built to power AI, cloud computing, and Big 
Tech infrastructure.



                        Sign now to demand that the Great Lakes Compact 
Council and the EPA work together to regulate data center water use and 
protect Great Lakes water levels.



                        Since 2019, water levels across the Great Lakes have 
dropped by two to four feet. Climate change, reduced ice cover, and 
increased evaporation are already placing enormous strain on the system. At 
the same time, water-intensive data centers are rapidly expanding throughout 
the Great Lakes basin, drawn by easy access to freshwater, tax incentives, 
and weak oversight. The Great Lakes are not an expendable resource for 
unchecked technological expansion. They are a public trust: essential to 
life, climate resilience, and future generations. Sign now to demand 
coordinated action from the Great Lakes Compact Council and the EPA to 
regulate data center water use and protect the world's largest freshwater 
system before it's too late.




                 Thank you,
