Erin Brockovich became world-famous after the 2000 film about her. The self-taught paralegal helped expose a water contamination scandal in Hinkley, California, in the early 1990s.
A class action lawsuit resulted in a $333 million settlement for those affected. Steven Soderbergh directed the film, and Julia Roberts won the Oscar for Best Actress.
The real-life Erin Brockovich has since built a career as an environmental activist and is now targeting data centers.
Gigantic warehouses filled with microchips and servers are mushrooming across the United States, contributing, according to critics, to rising electricity prices, increased fossil fuel use, high water consumption, noise and waste.
