Meet the Gen Zers fighting back against AI data centers—70% of young adults don’t want one in their town

Elijah Lee has spent years listening to Virginia lawmakers talk about data centers. At 18, he’s done listening. Lee is high school chapters coordinator for Voters of Tomorrow, a Gen Z–led political advocacy group. He lives in the state often called the data center capital of the world, since Virginia has more data centers than anywhere else on the planet . Now he’s helping young people across the country push back against them. “It’s difficult to break the data center issue into one piece, but for young people, we know what data centers mean long-term,” Lee said.
