In France, opposition is growing against large, energy-intensive data centers. François Ruffin and several deputies are calling for a moratorium on non-sovereign data centers at the National Assembly. Meanwhile, local residents and elected officials are mobilizing against projects, such as Google's planned centers in the Indre.
