拉斯克鲁塞斯绿商会反对“木星计划”数据中心 吁暂停并严审水源与空气影响
新墨西哥州拉斯克鲁塞斯绿商会（Las Cruces Green Chamber of Commerce）公开表态，反对在新墨西哥州南部建设代号“木星计划”（Project Jupiter）的数据中心项目，并敦促开发商与决策者暂停推进、与社区充分沟通。
绿商会董事会主席索默·米切尔（Sommer Mitchell）在评论文章中表示，商会支持经济发展，但这一项目的推进过程没有达到公众应有的透明度与参与度，资源消耗、环境影响与长期社区收益等问题仍未得到解答。
文章指出，尽管开发商称项目将采用闭环用水系统，但新墨西哥州南部本就面临严峻的水资源挑战，干旱持续加剧，Elephant Butte等水库水位长期处于历史低位，任何用水量大的项目都应接受严格的公众审查。
空气质量是另一大关切。绿商会认为，当地居民长期承受工业污染、沙尘与野火烟雾的影响，南部新墨西哥州值得符合本地价值观的经济发展，应在保护有限资源、造福子孙后代的前提下推进项目。
Las Cruces Green Chamber Opposes Project Jupiter Data Center, Urges Pause Over Water and Air Concerns
The Las Cruces Green Chamber of Commerce in New Mexico has publicly opposed Project Jupiter, a proposed data center development in southern New Mexico, and urged developers and decision-makers to pause the project and engage meaningfully with the community.
In a commentary, Green Chamber Board Chair Sommer Mitchell wrote that the chamber supports economic development, but that the Project Jupiter process has fallen short of the transparency and public participation residents should expect, with questions about resource consumption, environmental impacts and long-term community benefits still unresolved.
The commentary noted that while developers describe plans for a closed-loop water system, southern New Mexico already faces significant water challenges: drought conditions continue to worsen and reservoirs such as Elephant Butte remain at historically low levels, so any project with substantial water demands deserves rigorous public scrutiny.
Air quality is another major concern. The Green Chamber said local residents have long dealt with industrial pollution, dust and wildfire smoke, and that southern New Mexico deserves economic development consistent with local values, protecting limited resources for future generations.
