内容总结：
美国纽约州立法者近日提出一项法案，计划暂停新建数据中心相关许可审批至少三年。据科技媒体《连线》报道，尽管该法案前景尚不明朗，纽约已成为全美至少第六个考虑暂停新建数据中心的州。
随着科技公司持续投入巨资建设人工智能基础设施，民主、共和两党人士均对数据中心可能给周边社区带来的影响表示担忧。研究显示，数据中心的扩张可能导致居民电费上涨。进步派参议员伯尼·桑德斯与保守派佛罗里达州州长罗恩·德桑蒂斯罕见地共同发声批评，后者更直言数据中心将导致“电费飙升，却只为让聊天机器人腐蚀上网的13岁孩子”。
包括“食品与水观察”“地球之友”“绿色和平”在内的230多个环保组织近期联合致信国会，呼吁在全国范围内暂停新建数据中心。相关动议已在佐治亚、佛蒙特、弗吉尼亚等由民主党主导的州，以及马里兰、俄克拉荷马等共和党主政的州相继提出。
该法案发起人、纽约州民主党参议员莉兹·克鲁格指出，纽约对“蜂拥而至的巨型数据中心完全缺乏准备”，必须“按下暂停键，为制定强有力的数据中心政策争取时间，避免让纽约公用事业用户最终承担巨额账单”。
值得注意的是，纽约州州长凯西·霍赫尔上月刚宣布推出“能源纽约发展计划”，声称既要优化大型能源用户（如数据中心）的电网接入方式，也要求其“承担公平份额”。各方博弈仍在持续。

纽约州议员提出了一项法案，要求暂停发放与新建数据中心建设和运营相关的许可证至少三年。尽管该法案的前景尚不明朗，但《连线》杂志报道称，纽约至少已是第六个考虑暂停新建数据中心的州。
随着科技公司计划投入越来越多的资金建设人工智能基础设施，民主党和共和党人士都对数据中心可能对周边社区产生的影响表示担忧。研究还表明，数据中心会导致家庭电费上涨。
批评者包括进步派参议员伯尼·桑德斯，他呼吁在全国范围内暂停新建数据中心；以及保守派佛罗里达州州长罗恩·德桑蒂斯，他表示数据中心将导致"能源账单上涨，而这一切只是为了某个聊天机器人能在网上腐蚀一个13岁的孩子"。
包括"食品与水观察"、"地球之友"和"绿色和平"在内的230多个环保组织最近签署了一封致国会的公开信，呼吁在全国范围内暂停新建数据中心。
"食品与水观察"组织的埃里克·韦尔特曼告诉《连线》杂志，由民主党州参议员莉兹·克鲁格和民主党州议员安娜·凯莱斯共同发起的纽约法案是"我们的主意"。佐治亚州、佛蒙特州和弗吉尼亚州的民主党人也提出了暂停新建数据中心的提议，而马里兰州和俄克拉荷马州的共和党人也发起了类似法案。
据《政客》杂志报道，克鲁格称她的州对"瞄准纽约的巨型数据中心""完全没有准备"。
她说："是时候按下暂停键了，给我们自己一些喘息的空间来制定强有力的数据中心政策，避免陷入泡沫，泡沫破裂后会让纽约的公用事业用户承担巨额账单。"

New Yorker state lawmakers have introduced a bill that would impose a moratorium of at least three years on permits tied to the construction and operation of new data centers. While the bill’s prospects are uncertain, Wired reports that New York is at least the sixth state to consider pausing construction of new data centers.
As tech companies plan to spend ever-increasing amounts of money to build AI infrastructure, both Democrats and Republicans have expressed concerns about the impact those data centers might have on surrounding communities. Studies have also linked data centers to increased home electricity bills.
Critics include progressive Senator Bernie Sanders, who has called for a national moratorium, as well as conservative Florida Governor Ron De Santis, who said data centers will lead to “higher energy bills just so some chatbot can corrupt some 13 year old kid online.”
More than 230 environmental groups including Food & Water Watch, Friends of the Earth, and Greenpeace recently signed an open letter to Congress calling for a national moratorium on the construction of new data centers.
Eric Weltman of Food & Water Watch told Wired that the New York bill — sponsored by state senator Liz Krueger and assemblymember Anna Kelles, both Democrats — was “our idea.” Data center pauses have also been proposed by Democrats in Georgia, Vermont, and Virginia, while Republicans sponsored similar bills in Maryland and Oklahoma.
According to Politico, Krueger described her state as “completely unprepared” for the “massive data centers” that are “gunning for New York.”
“It’s time to hit the pause button, give ourselves some breathing room to adopt strong policies on data centers, and avoid getting caught in a bubble that will burst and leave New York utility customers footing a huge bill,” she said.

Last month, New York Governor Kathy Hochul announced a new initiative called Energize NY Development, which her office said would both modernize the way large energy users (i.e., data centers) would connect to the grid while also requiring them to “pay their fair share.”
