This month at True Texas Project, we are eager to hear from Joshua Moroles, as he gives a follow up to his last talk “Downstream – the RGV Water Crisis”. In this presentation he will focus in on the data centers being proposed for the Rio Grande Valley, and what that could mean for the already shrinking water supply. We have ALL seen the chatter in our communities about data centers coming into our towns, taking up water, causing light and noise pollution, and even potentially harming property values and livestock. This is no small issue, and we should explore all angles before we allow these businesses to come into our communities. Join us as we learn from Joshua about what his research has uncovered!

About Joshua Moroles:
Joshua Moroles is an award-winning documentary filmmaker, published author, and public speaker focused on water security, infrastructure, and energy in the Rio Grande Valley.

He is the author of Downstream, a book examining how pollution and water mismanagement move through the Valley’s river systems and communities—shaping public health, costs, and quality of life across the region.

Through investigative storytelling and community presentations, Joshua has raised awareness about Rio Grande water dependence, Arroyo Colorado impairment, drought conditions, disinfection byproducts like TTHMs and HAA5, agricultural pressures, and the growing infrastructure burden tied to rapid industrial expansion and population growth.

Known for translating complex water and power issues into clear, relatable language, Joshua connects policy decisions to real-world impacts on families, farmers, and ratepayers—emphasizing transparency, accountability, and responsible planning in a region that relies heavily on a single river system for its municipal water supply.
