That 37% hasn't been near one. Promise 0 % that live near one enjoy having it there.
Especially when they have no water, the noise level is terrible and all thier electric bills went up three times.
I work at and live near one. I have zero objection. I love that my commute is short enough to get to work by bicycle.
We use less water than an average lawyer office - mostly the toilets. All of the generators added together make less noise than a landscape crew working on my neighbors house. Our building construction actually added electrical capacity to our county.
I accept that many other companies do it wrong. We do not. The industry is not monolithic. There are some bad actors that make us look bad.
