Important! Please join the Stop AI Datacentres Scotland March

We are so excited to let you all know that, on Saturday 14th November, community campaigners, organisations and people all across Scotland will head to the Royal Mile in Edinburgh to make our voices heard on AI data centres – help get the word out and join us there!

Developers want to build monster data centres across Scotland and sell them on to big US tech companies – there are over 20 already proposed and more in the pipeline.

These massive developments would demand twice as much electricity as Scotland’s peak usage, and have huge consequences for our energy bills, water, health, communities, climate and nature.

Decisions on AI data centres should be led by the people, not by Big Tech profits. The people of Scotland must have a say on how our public resources are used.

No one voted for AI data centres. Where was this discussion in the Holyrood elections?

This goes beyond planning guidance. We need a national conversation about the rollout of AI and data centres before any decisions are made. This is an issue that affects us all.

Please join this march if you can. Tell others, bring friends and family. We need as many people as possible to come!

When: Saturday 14th November

Meet: 11.30am at the top of the Royal Mile, Edinburgh

March: 12pm. Rally: 1pm.
