Open letter urges UK government to put wildlife before AI data centres

Original: wildlife √ AI data centres X if you care about the animals with whom we share the planet, please sign this open letter t

A campaign group is gathering signatures for an open letter to UK Housing Secretary Angela Rayner calling on the government to reject data centre developments that threaten wildlife and natural habitats. The letter, hosted by Protect the Wild, argues that the rapid expansion of AI infrastructure is coming at the expense of the environment, and urges planners to prioritise protection of animals and green spaces.

Why now: Growing concern that AI-driven data centre construction in the UK is destroying wildlife habitats, prompting a petition campaign aimed directly at the government.
