On this edition of KBOO News in Depth:
The Oregon Data Center Advisory Committee was created by Governor Tina Kotek in January, to come up with policy and regulatory recommendations for data centers. How the state should balance economic opportunities with negative local impacts is a key question. The committee met for the first time Friday, February 27th. KBOO's Doug McVay reports on their meeting, and what experts say about the impact that data centers have on the communities they're built in.
Then, it's the Global Citizen International Digest, wtih Portland State Professor Emeritus Mel Gurtov. Tune in for thoughtful commentary from a human interest lens.
