Data center boom could leave Americans 'on the hook' for big costs

The reporting was supported by a grant from the Pulitzer Center . MEMPHIS, TN — More than three decades after serving in Operation Desert Storm, Loretta Young Thornton never expected the sounds of war to follow her home. Thornton, 66, spent nearly 25 years in the Tennessee Army National Guard, serving as a military police officer before retiring as a decorated sergeant in 2004. She also built a career with the U.S. Postal Service. After a lifetime of work, she poured her savings into a modest, four-bedroom home built in the 1920s on a secluded two-acre lot in Memphis, near the Mississippi state line. She named it Serenity. When Thornton bought the house in 2014, the surrounding woods were home to deer, squirrels, hawks and wild turkeys. At night, she listened to the calls of owls, including one she affectionately called her boyfriend. Then the trees came down, sending clouds of dust swirling toward Thornton's home. In their place rose Colossus 2, a massive data center built for billionaire Elon Musk's artificial intelligence company, xAI. The sprawling complex, designed to house thousands of powerful computer chips to train the next generation of AI models, sits just across the railroad tracks

TN groups aim to restore South Fork of Forked Deer River floodplains

Conservation groups are celebrating the acquisition of 985 acres of land along the south fork of the Forked Deer River in West Tennessee to help restore the area’s natural landscape. For more than a century, low-lying floodplains near Jackson have been drained to accommodate railways, highways and row-crop farming, exposing residents to flash floods and disrupting wildlife habitats. Kendall McCarter, chief development officer for the Tennessee Wildlife Federation, hopes to see the return of towering oak and hickory trees and aquatic species, like mussels, to help filter the river. "To think that we can bring that back to this area of the community that is really not very attractive but also ecologically lifting what is there, is just really cool," McCarter emphasized. McCarter credited a coalition of conservation groups working with area residents to secure the state’s purchase of the land. He said once the flood risk is minimized, the public can help plan and develop the rest of the project. Some of the ideas being floated include recreational trails, a nature center and new areas for kayaking. The West Tennessee River Basin Authority is developing a restoration timeline, which also includes public education about rivers and floodplains. The project
