In Memphis, Tennessee, Elon Musk's xAI company operates dozens of gas turbines without air permits to power a massive data center, releasing nitrogen oxides and formaldehyde linked to asthma and cancer increases in a predominantly Black, lower-income community. The NAACP, represented by the Southern Environmental Law Center, has sued xAI over environmental injustice. The EPA has joined Trump's Justice Department in intervening on behalf of Musk's company.
