This site provides information and support for communities opposing data centres in Melbourne and Victoria, Australia. The Victorian Government and Australian Government are fast-tracking approvals for data centres without informing or consulting the public.

Large tech companies aim to build facilities Australia, as there is increasing opposition to data centre projects overseas because of increases to household electricity prices, demand on energy and water supplies, and noise and air pollution for neighbours.
