Are data centers the devil? On this episode, Matt welcomes land-use expert and County Commissioner for Jefferson County, West Virginia, Cara Keys to unpack the truth behind their impact on our communities.

Data centers are popping up everywhere, and with them come mixed feelings. On one hand, they bring jobs and revenue; on the other, they raise concerns about noise, energy consumption, and community impact.
