AGP Executive Report

Last update: 3 hours ago

Utah Data Center Fight: Kevin O’Leary’s Stratos AI data center in Box Elder County is being scaled back after pressure from Utah Senate President Stuart Adams, with O’Leary agreeing to remove 19,430 acres and leaving much of the rest as open space, plus new commitments tied to Great Salt Lake water protection and environmental reviews. Local Land & Wildlife: A federal Forest Service conservation easement will permanently protect 1,344 acres near Nine Mile Canyon, aiming to safeguard wildlife habitat, water resources, and cultural values. Heat Preparedness: New Census Bureau data shows big gaps in air conditioning access at the neighborhood level, with some areas far less protected during extreme heat. Wildlife Crossings: California’s first wildlife crossing is nearing completion, and mule deer are already using it—an approach Utah communities have watched for collision and biodiversity benefits. Public Health: Across the U.S., weakened state and local public health powers post-COVID are raising outbreak risks. Climate Disaster Anxiety: A new report argues summer climate disasters are worsening due to fossil-fuel industry actions, not just “natural” swings.
