Switzerland: Giant banner targets Big Tech outside data centre site

Greenpeace has launched a campaign against the expansion of mega data centres, highlighting their environmental impact. A large banner featuring Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos was displayed near a STACK Infrastructure site, criticizing the consumption of resources by tech companies. Greenpeace demands a moratorium on new data centres until regulations are established to safeguard water and energy supplies. They argue that planned facilities in Beringen could consume excessive electricity and water, raising concerns about waste heat management and public benefit. This protest is part of a broader international movement against large-scale data centre growth.
