Elon Musk's xAI: Memphis Residents Allege Environmental Injustice

Elon Musk's xAI Data Center in Memphis: A Case of Environmental Injustice. A new report reveals that Elon Musk's xAI data center in Memphis, Tennessee, is operating 35 gas turbines without the necessary permits or pollution controls. Local residents are reporting health issues, including respiratory problems. Environmental lawyers are calling for an investigation. "It's extremely disrespectful," says KeShaun Pearson, a Memphis resident and activist. The company has only recently applied for a permit, but the permit only addresses a fraction of the turbines. The EPA, under the Trump administration, has significantly reduced its budget and enforcement capabilities, raising concerns about its ability to address this issue. This situation highlights the urgent need for stronger environmental regulations and corporate accountability. The video underscores the human cost of prioritizing profit over environmental protection and community well-being.
