New Mexico students and organizers protest AI data centers, call for statewide ban
Students and organizers across New Mexico staged protests and a statewide walkout to demand a ban on AI data centers. The demonstrations included a march on Senator Martin Heinrich's office, where participants urged leaders to "pull the plug" on these facilities. Activists from New Mexico State University and other groups voiced concerns over the environmental impact, particularly the significant energy and water consumption associated with large-scale data centers. They argue that the state's resources should not be used to support what they view as environmentally damaging AI infrastructure. The protests highlight growing ethical concerns among students and community organizers regarding the rapid expansion of AI technology and its resource demands.
