You may have seen us at the farmers' market, at festivals, local coffee shops, or wherever people gather, with a sign proclaiming “ban mega data centers” and with our clipboards at-the-ready. We're gathering signatures for the Conserve Ohio petition; it is formally known as the Ohio Prohibition of Data Center Construction Amendment. It needs 413,488 valid signatures from at least 44 of Ohio's 88 counties by July 1, 2026 to get on the November ballot.
