Elon Musk’s Colossus 2 data center installed 59 natural gas turbines without permission, report claims — thousands of tons of pollutants reportedly impact black communities in Mississippi already suffering from elevated lung disease rates

Estimates suggest that about half of the unpermitted turbines generate 2,500 tons of NOx, 4,000 tons of CO, and 22 tons of formaldehyde every year.

    So you’re just going to parrot Elon Musk’s public statement about why he doesn’t need permission? Get outta here!

    He has more than 2x as many turbines than is allowed for a temporary install. The article makes it abundantly clear that these things are illegal.

    Musk doesn’t have permission to do this, no matter what excuse he gives.
