Pax Silica: Building a huge AI Data Center in the Philippines

[stadus]

I would not question what Pax Silica can bring to the Philippines. Surely it can create jobs and help the country become more advanced.

My concern is the natural resources that may be damaged just to bring these big companies in. Thats also what I keep reading in many comments, especially about its possible negative impact on the environment.

So for those who are experts on this topic, I would really like to know if there is something we should be worried about. I will keep following this thread because I admit I still don't fully understand everything, and I want to be properly educated about what we need to know.

There is always a price to pay. Now if that's the case, I don't want to trade the future of our rich natural resources for the sake of rise of employment. Jobless people can always find job from different means, and even work on side hustles that they can find online.

So I say big NO to  Pax Silica. It can only ruin the health of most Filipino people in nearby areas. And since they will take advantage of our water supply, and compromise its cleanliness, I guess Filipino people will never love that.

The building of Pax Silica will be an advantage for those who are behind the project as they will surely make massive profits. But the after effect on the community around will always have the worst scenario. People will surely experience a risky and unsafe environment due to complications from building AI data center, and would put our local resources highly compromised because data center operates with high in demand of our natural resources.

In addition, the economic state of our farmers will surely drop low because this AI data center will compete with the scarce water supply, thus leaving our very own farmers losing the chance to grow their farm, to maximize their farm income.
