Every video stream, text message, and AI query depends on massive data centers—invisible infrastructure that powers modern life. But these facilities consume enormous amounts of electricity and water, sparking real debates in communities across America.
Data Centers: Infrastructure, Resources, and Controversy is a 5-day unit study designed for 12-year-olds to explore this critical topic. Your child will learn:
- What data centers are and why they’re essential
- The hidden environmental costs of “the cloud”
- Why communities are pushing back against new facilities
- How AI is intensifying these challenges
- The trade-offs between progress and sustainability
Each of the 5 sections includes: engaging readings, vocabulary terms, discussion questions, creative coloring sheets, and hands-on lapbook activities that reinforce learning while building reading stamina and writing skills.</p
