We are now talking about food waste prevention and recovery. Craig Rice from Manna pointed out that the tighter margins (as food costs go up) for grocers and restaurants means food recovery groups get fewer additions.

ALSO food recovery is NOT free!

Note about these rising rates of food insecurity (from 27% to 34% in Montgomery County) is these numbers do NOT include our furloughed employees.

Organizations are reaching out daily to ask “can you feed another 70-100 families who have lost their SNAP benefits” but there isn’t fed $

At the Montgomery County Food Council’s Legislative Breakfast — notice how many different communities are losing their benefits. Many families are not applying to SNAP because mixed status households are afraid of putting their information on paper.

Don’t bring a speaker or else you’ll drown out the sound of our diesel generators!

Don’t smoke because it’s harmful to our air quality…wait a second??

This site has 106 diesel generators (each 2.5 MW) for these 4 data centers. You can see a dozen of these generators with stacks — the stacks are actually great because they push the pollutants higher so they are not going straight into this baseball field.

Note how close these buildings (and back up diesel generators) are to playing fields where developing lungs play! The company, with CSR principles, could have built battery back up storage rather than using the cheaper, polluting diesel generators but they chose not to.

First stop: data centers right next to playing fields!

This neighborhood had housing, a community center, playing fields, and other neighborhood benefits built before these data centers came. They were built within the last year or two due to by right permissions.

Coming in live in Landover, in the rain as the Prince George’s County Data Center Task Force prepares to have their public meeting. An amazing rally hosted by Party for Socialism and Liberation with guest speakers Staci Hartwell, Dr. Waters from Eagle Harbor, and more community activists.

According to this, it is bird 29 which is a Ruffed Grouse and is native to MD! I did think it was 14, which is a Northern Bobwhite at first.
