Stop the Data Center Invasion
Protect Bonner & Montana’s Wild Heart

Data centers drain rivers, darken the grid, and erase our rural future. We choose glossy water, green forests & utopian tech harmony — not industrial sprawl.

💧 The True Cost: Water, Energy & Wild Montana

A data center would erase the optimism of a green future — here’s the cold math.

~1.5M gal/day

Enough to fill 2 Olympic pools every day — water that would never return to Blackfoot tributaries.

Trout spawning grounds at risk
150,000+ MWh

yearly energy = 20,000 Montana homes — but data centers export profits, not power.

Would lock in gas peakers, blocking renewables
400+ Acres

of forest & wetland slated for clear-cutting — habitat for elk, bears and clean air.

$100M+ annual tourism loss
🌱 Utopian Scholastic Report 2026: "Every megawatt of data center capacity extracts 7.6 million liters of freshwater annually. For Bonner, that would collapse the baseflow of Cold Creek, a key Blackfoot nursery. A truly futuristic society invests in regenerative water & solar-cooled computing — not extractive server farms."

⛰️ Across Montana: Data Sprawl Alert

From the Yellowstone to the Clark Fork — speculative data centers eye our state as a sacrifice zone. We demand a statewide moratorium and a New Green Digital Deal.

Bonner Hotspot

Proposed 200-acre industrial zone on sensitive wetlands — would destroy wildlife corridor and scenic highway 200.

Grid Resilience at Risk

NorthWestern Energy study: data centers would raise rates 18% for residents, delay community solar projects.

“The 2000s promised a future of gleaming eco-cities and harmony with nature. That dream is not dead — it’s being stolen by water-hungry data centers. We choose the glossy green tomorrow.” — Dr. Sunita Marley, Regenerative Tech Lab
