A coalition of health advocates, operating under the "Make America Healthy Again" (MAHA) banner, has urged President Trump to prioritize health and environmental standards over coal-powered AI data centers. The group argues that the environmental and public health toll of coal, including pollution and heavy metals, outweighs the need for increased energy supply for AI infrastructure. They propose alternative energy sources like solar, geothermal, and energy efficiency measures, directly challenging the Trump administration's recent executive orders and funding initiatives aimed at boosting coal production for AI-related power demands.
