BREAKING: We're suing Elon Musk’s company, xAI, for building an illegal power plant in Mississippi to fuel its data center – with no air permits and little protection for the people living around it. xAI built a data center in Memphis to train the Grok chatbot. In the nearby town of Southaven, Mississippi, xAI is running 27 gas turbines that pump out air pollution around the clock. Gas turbines release smog-forming pollution and hazardous chemicals like formaldehyde, which has been linked to cancer. This illegal gas plant is spewing this toxic pollution just a mile away from an elementary school, and even closer to nearby homes. There are no exceptions that would allow this major source of pollution to evade the law. We're partnering with the Southern Environmental Law Center to represent the NAACP and fight for clean air for the people of Southaven.
