Plugged In: The race to power Georgia’s data center boom

Data centers are growing faster in Atlanta than anywhere else in the country. That rapid growth has left communities grappling with how these new developments will impact the environment and their neighborhoods. WABE has been taking a closer look at data centers as part of our series, “Server South.” On this week’s episode of “Plugged In,” hosts Sam Gringlas and Rahul Bali are joined by WABE and Grist Climate Reporter Emily Jones and WABE Environment Reporter Marisa Mecke to talk about data centers’ massive demand for power and water and some possible solutions.
