Stop data centre in Coleraine

Nobody in Northern Ireland has voted for massive AI data centre infrastructure being created near our home towns, for me it’s coleraine but they are planned everywhere! 
They use massive amounts of water and put our environment under extreme pressure. There is evidence of that happening now near Gatwick airport where water pressure was so low, bottled water was given out to the public. Lands can dry up affecting our farm land, causing fires!
Ecological damage would be vast what with taking over large amounts of natural ecosystems, wiping out habitats, water pollution, birds,!insects and bees being affected!
Again, no one voted you in for this! Why is it happening without our vote? 

Why is this important?

People need to come together, this affects us all. What about living next to a data centre with the loud noise pollution relentless, your property values plummets, you can’t ever sit in your peaceful garden again nor hear the sound of birds and the bees! Will you be happy with this? I certainly wouldn’t and if we don’t all stand and shout and say, no! It’s going to happen to you and everyone near you!!!
