Gas Turbine Power Plant Opposition

Summary

Southaven residents are fighting xAI’s plan to run 41 gas turbines for Musk’s Grok data center. The worry is simple: more air pollution, more noise, and neighborhoods getting sacrificed so a tech campus can get power. This is headed to local officials, so expect a real fight over who pays and who breathes it.
