1
The U .S midterm elections are approaching.
2
One issue emerging in this election cycle is the impact of
3
data centers on people living in communities where these facilities are being built.
4
Across the country, communities are debating the economic benefits of data centers against concerns over quality of life and the environment.
5
And that is the focus of our report today from our correspondent in the United States.
6
A proposed 99 megawatt data center near a community park is now undergoing public review in San Jose, California.
7
The public hearing is a required step in the approval process at the public meeting.
8
Many residents voiced concerns about the potential impact of the project on their communities.
9
Fortunately, we have four applications just within my school district
10
that will impact my families and my students
11
and my schools out in South San Jose and we've had no say so
12
and the most concerning one is at Hitachi where we just
13
approved a land use split to allow for a data center
14
that's right next to our community right next to a park
15
that the children are playing at
16
and we actually at one point was supposed to be a community center for district 2
17
and so we're going the wrong way I believe we need to have a moratorium
18
and talk about over concentration within our community they're all saying the same thing
19
that we don't want them here it's going to cause
20
so many problems you in dust you zone the ibm property for industrial it's right next to residential we have
21
so many housing issues silicon valley's san jose is home to many of the world's largest technology companies
22
and has also become a major location for data centers city
23
officials say each proposal must be carefully reviewed with the goal
24
of balancing economic benefits with the concerns of local residents we're committed to making sure
25
that data centers are done right in san jose meaning
26
that we strike that balance between the economic opportunity
27
and tax -based growth with all of the things the community
28
is rightly concerned about quality of life environmental sustainability ensuring
29
that there are actual community benefits we've got to regulate tech to ensure
30
that any new development investment is a win for the broader
31
community some environmental activists in san jose are documenting the growing
32
concentration of data centers across the city they're using the footage
33
to show candidates running in the midterm elections how close these facilities are to homes parks children and wildlife
34
We're actually using that footage to talk to elected representatives, to show them with their own eyes the proximity of children,
35
of parks, of wildlife, and of the population that they're responsible for, how close they are to these data centers.
36
Data center is one of the issues in America today.
37
And in order to provide more information about that issue.
38
I have the interview with the official from the Laodau County.
39
The county has been seen the data center capital city of the United States.
40
Thank you very much for being interviewed with Vietnam today.
41
The first question I'd like to ask you is
42
that why some of the people are particularly concerned about the data center in midterm election.
43
It's a good question and And data centers need to be managed.
44
And because they are unique community challenges, they need to be managed at the community level.
45
So to the extent that they are properly managed from the outset, data centers can be a real benefit to a community.
46
But they have to be properly managed preemptively.
47
And what happened was the explosive growth
48
that began in the summer of 2022 caused a lot of data centers to simply roll into communities that were unprepared,
49
didn't know what a data center was had never dealt with data centers
50
and offer enormous amounts of money to be able to build
51
a data center with no regard whatever to the impact on the community.
52
And it didn't take a whole lot of bad actors like that to really cause this resistance movement among populations.
53
I talk to communities all the time
54
and I say it's specific to each community and
55
if you pay attention
56
and you get all the stakeholders to talk preemptively at the
57
beginning of the discussion you can build really effective community partners with data centers
58
but if you don't and
59
if you simply sign on the dotted line for the amount of money
60
that they're offering you you can end up with a data center
61
that has a real negative impact on the community
62
and I think it's those examples
63
that are making the news the really bad examples of data centers
64
that were built too fast in the wrong place without the right kinds of mitigation of the impacts on the community
65
In this scenario,
66
what is the company should do to balance between building the new data center and to meet the requirements from the community?
67
It's a great question.
68
The data center community right now is facing historic demand, really, truly historic demand.
69
And so as a business entity, they want to respond to that demand.
70
And the default position is to respond to that demand exactly as they've always responded to it.
71
Build more, build bigger, build faster.
72
The demand and the constant building is, if it's not managed correctly from the data center side,
73
can be just as damaging as if it's not managed from the community side.
74
If I were building a data center now, recognizing community resistance that's out there,
75
I would sit down preemptively and go talk to community leaders and all the stakeholders.
76
I'd bring it around the table, the community, the other data centers,
77
perhaps, utilities, water resources, all the stakeholders that are going to have something to do with my data center.
78
And we would come to a mutually agreed solution for how this data center should go forward so that I, as the data center, am creating a community partnership right from the outset set.
79
It's not an afterthought.
80
So the data centers, I believe now, they don't just have a blank check anymore.
81
They can't just build any way they want to, anywhere they want to.
82
I think now, for their own self -interest, they should start collaborating with community leaders, elected leaders, early on in the process.
83
And that will reduce a lot of the resistance and allow them to build really productive campuses.
84
Thank you very much for being interviewed with Vietnam Today.

Gölgeleme Tekniği Nedir?
Gölgeleme, başlangıçta profesyonel tercüman eğitimi için geliştirilen ve çok dilli Dr. Alexander Arguelles tarafından popüler hale getirilen, bilim destekli bir dil öğrenme tekniğidir. Yöntem basit ama güçlüdür: ana dili İngilizce olan bir sesi dinler ve hemen yüksek sesle tekrar edersiniz — konuşmacıyı 1-2 saniye gecikmeyle takip eden bir gölge gibi. Pasif dinleme veya dilbilgisi alıştırmalarının aksine, gölgeleme beyninizi ve ağız kaslarınızı gerçek konuşma kalıplarını eşzamanlı olarak işlemeye ve yeniden üretmeye zorlar. Araştırmalar, telaffuz doğruluğu, tonlama, ritim, bağlı konuşma, dinleme anlama ve konuşma akıcılığını önemli ölçüde geliştirdiğini göstermektedir — bu da onu IELTS Konuşma hazırlığı ve gerçek dünya İngilizce iletişimi için en etkili yöntemlerden biri yapar.
