“A 15,000 sq metre #DataCentre near Perth will no longer go ahead after the developer withdrew plans amid community opposition over its impact on culturally significant sites. The three-storey, 120-megawatt #GreenSquare datacentre in the town of #Hazelmere had been intended to power #CloudComputing and the acceleration of #ArtificialIntelligence, but faced fierce community backlash.
