Biologically Safe Levels For Wireless Exposure Have Never Been Established


Biologically safe levels for long-term exposure to pulsed modulated non-ionizing wireless radiation at non-thermal levels, what today's wireless technology exposes us to, have never been established by any United States health regulatory agency.  Current safety guidelines are based upon the heating of tissue, or thermal effects, from short-term exposures only, and do not consider long-term non-thermal effects.

"The RFR (radiofrequency radiation) exposure limits were designed to protect the general public only from heating risks due to short-term exposure to this type of non-ionizing radiation. The limits were not designed to protect individuals from chronic exposure to low-intensity (i.e., non-thermal levels of) RFR. Yet the preponderance of peer-reviewed research on low-intensity RFR exposure finds biological effects and adverse health effects."  Joel M. Moskowitz,  Ph.D., Director of the Center for Family and Community Health, School of Public Health, University of California, Berkeley | Worldwide Radio Frequency Radiation Exposure Limits versus Health Effects

In 2002 (and prior) the EPA questioned the adequacy of the current U.S. RFR safety guidelines established by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) in 1996.  Yet U.S. RFR exposure guidelines are still the same today as they were in 1996, and are based upon thermal, or heating effects, only.  They still do not consider long-term exposure at non-thermal levels.

The 4G / 5G small cell antenna infrastructure is creating long-term exposures to exponentially higher levels of RFR at non-thermal levels.  NO safety is assured.

If someone tells you that 5G technology is going to use lower power or lower energy levels than 4G and 3G (and therefore assumed 'safer'), let them know it's not the power levels or energy levels that elicit the most severe  adverse biological effects.  It's the pulses and modulation that appear to be so biologically damaging, according to the scientists and medical professionals who have been studying this issue (see images HERE for a better understanding of modulation).

The 5G wireless infrastructure is in ADDITION to the 3G / 4G infrastructure, adding exponential levels of RFR to our environment, with no biological health impact or environmental impact assessment.

Large cell towers are not being removed as the 4G / 5G infrastructure is being built.  In fact, many large cell towers are getting taller with more cells and antenna.  RFR measurements are increasing exponentially across Michigan as the 4G / 5G infrastructure is being installed.

Because safe levels for long-term exposure to pulsed modulated non-ionizing RFR at non-thermal levels have never been established, we have absolutely NO assurance of safety from any of the wireless technology we are exposed to over the long-term.

We can limit cell phone use, use speaker-phone or air-tubes, turn WiFi 'off' at night, and shield 'smart' meter RFR.  But when a small cell antenna is installed on a light pole outside our bedroom window, our options to avoid excessive untested exposure to RFR  (already making some people very ill) are limited.

This is why we need an immediate moratorium on wireless infrastructure expansion including small cell antenna installations until safe levels for long-term exposure to pulsed modulated non-ionizing RFR at non-thermal levels are established. 

To protect your health, and the health of your loved-ones, please contact state lawmakers and ask for legislation placing a moratorium on wireless expansion until a systematic review of the science is done by independent researchers without conflicts of interest, and safe levels are established for long-term exposure to pulsed modulated non-ionizing RFR at non-thermal levels.

Electromagnetic Fields & Plant Life



Starling W. Childs, M.S., Geologist and Forestry Consultant, Adjunct Faculty, Yale School of Forestry and Environmental Studies, President, Berkshire-Litchfield Environmental Council:

"We've known, certainly, that electromagnetic fields affected trees..."

Of critical importance to humans, trees play a major role in producing the oxygen we breathe and cleaning carbon dioxide out of the air.  They also stabilize the environment, prevent erosion, and provide food and shelter for wildlife.  One large tree can provide a day's supply of oxygen for four people.

But trees, like humans, are affected by electromagnetic fields.

Cell towers (large mega-towers, 5G or 5th Generation small cells, DAS nodes/towers), antenna, smart meters and other wireless transmitting utility meters (electric, natural gas and water), WiFi, cellphones, and other wireless devices introduced in the U.S. within the last 40 years or so, all create electromagnetic fields we were not exposed to previously.

The majority of people in the U.S. were still using land-lines prior to 2002, and at that time Internet was "largely stationary," which means that everything was hard-wired, not wireless.  

More facts and information about the demographics of mobile device ownership and adoption in the U.S. can be found HERE




The above picture shows how one tree was damaged by a nearby cell tower.  More images and information on how "Wireless Kills Trees," can be found HERE.








This above image shows a vine surrounding a 'smart' meter in Ontario Canada, and the dangerous effects spiked (pulse modulated) transmitting utility meter radiation has.  Image and story HERE.





In a school experiment, the plate of cress seeds on the LEFT were germinated in a school room that had WiFi routers.  The plate on the RIGHT was germinated in another room without any WiFi routers.  

The cress on the left were clearly affected by the electromagnetic fields from the WiFi router.  Read the full story HERE.

Within the last several years, electromagnetic fields in our everyday environment have increased exponentially, and with the "roll-out" of 5G small cell towers, it will only increase more exponentially.


"Wireless radiation has biological effects.  Period." 


Instead of ignoring the evidence of harm done by wireless technology, let's begin to reduce our exposure so that we don't end up like the cress on the left, mutated and/or dead, prematurely.

Wireless Baby Monitors - A Great Invention?



Wireless Baby Monitor Radiation - Measuring RF Radiation from Wireless Baby Monitor

From the video description:

"I have covered the name of the company who makes this wireless baby monitor. However, 'wireless' baby monitors, of various types, and from various companies will be similar in function. I have also chosen to not make any statements regarding the safety or lack of safety of this product. That will be for you to decide. I have simply provided the summary of clinical research done by the scientists who compiled the BioInitiative Report 2012. This information is available at: www.bioinitiative.org. You may watch this video and make your own decisions based upon what you are watching."


(Note:  Wireless radiation has proven biological effects.)

5G Wireless Technology: Millimeter Wave Health Effects

5G Wireless Technology: Millimeter Wave Health Effects


by Joel M. Moskowitz, Ph.D.
Director
Center for Family and Community Health
School of Public Health
University of California, Berkeley


The emergence of 5G, fifth-generation telecommunications networks, has been in the news lately because the wireless industry has been pushing controversial legislation at the state level to expedite the deployment of this technology. The legislation would block the rights of local governments and their citizens to control the installation of cellular antennas in the public “right-of-way.” Cell antennas may be installed on public utility poles every 10-20 houses in urban areas. According to the industry, as many as 50,000 new cell sites will be required in California alone. 

Although many major cities and newspapers have opposed this legislation, the potential health risks from the proliferation of new cellular antenna sites have been ignored. These cell antennas will expose the population to new sources of radio frequency radiation including MMWs.

5G will employ low- (0.6 GHz - 3.7 GHz), mid- (3.7 – 24 GHz), and high-band frequencies (24 GHz and higher). In the U.S., the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has allocated “low-band” spectrum at 0.6 GHz (e.g., 600 MHz), “mid-band” spectrum in the 3.5 GHz range, and 11 GHz of “high-band” frequencies including licensed spectrum from 27.5-28.35 GHz and 37-40 GHz, as well as unlicensed spectrum from 64-71 GHz which is open to all wireless equipment manufacturers.


Prior to widespread deployment, major cell phone carriers are experimenting with new technologies that employ “high-band” frequencies in communities across the country. The “high-band” frequencies largely consist of millimeter waves (MMWs), a type of electromagnetic radiation with wavelengths of one to ten millimeters and frequencies ranging from 30 to 300 GHz (or billions of cycles per second). 


The characteristics of MMWs are different than the “low-band” (i.e., microwave) frequencies which are currently in use by the cellular and wireless industries. MMWs can transmit large amounts of data over short distances. The transmissions can be directed into narrow beams that travel by line-of-sight and can move data at high rates (e.g., up to 10 billion bits per second) with short lags (or latencies) between transmissions. The signals are blocked by buildings, and foliage can absorb much of their energy. Also, the waves can be reflected by metallic surfaces. Although antennas can be as small as a few millimeters, “small cell” antenna arrays may consist of dozens or even hundreds of antenna elements.

What does research tell us about the biologic and health effects of millimeter waves?

Millimeter waves (MMWs) are mostly absorbed within 1 to 2 millimeters of human skin and in the surface layers of the cornea. Thus, the skin or near-surface zones of tissues are the primary targets of the radiation. Since skin contains capillaries and nerve endings, MMW bio-effects may be transmitted through molecular mechanisms by the skin or through the nervous system.

MI State Rep. Donna Lasinski Defends Her Support of 5G Streamlining Bills




House Energy Policy Committee, October 4, 2018, hearing on Michigan's two 5G streamlining bills, SB 637 and SB 894.

Rep. Donna Lasinski clarifies the heart of her question, recognizing those with concerns around the clear biological health effects from wireless radiation, why she supports SB 637 as clarifying the FCC’s preemption of every state and locality in the nation.

What she and others who supported these bills don't understand is that neither the FCC Order, nor SB 637 are in the public interest. Cities are not rushing out to fulfill the FCC Order. Instead, cities are planning to sue the FCC over this ruling:



By supporting the FCC Order and SB 637, she and others on the committee are supporting stripping the rights of local authorities to control public right of way space, and giving those rights to a for-profit industry for an untested new product that will add exponential amounts of a class 2B carcinogen to our environment, with absolutely no safety testing.

The telecom industry's new product "5G" will utilize ultra-high frequency millimeter waves not yet in use. These frequencies are due to be auctioned off by the FCC in November. There are no published peer-reviewed studies proving that long-term exposure to ultra-high frequency millimeter waves is safe for children and pregnant women.

However, there are studies showing biological harm from ultra-high frequency millimeter waves:

Senator Thune & 5G Technology




Letter to Senator Thune in response to Kevin Mottus's request in the above video (at about 5 minutes in):
January 23, 2017 
Dear Senator Thune, 
Topic selected was "Telecommunications and the Internet" because it was the closest to the topic I wish to address, which is the Mobile Now Act, 5G technology, and wireless radiation health effects. 
We know that people are getting brain tumors from cell phones, and neurological effects from other electronic and wireless technology (smart meters, WiFi, cell towers, antenna, etc). 
The Mobile Now Act, which you have introduced, will put 5G technology, high frequency microwave radiation into our environment, and will certainly make even more people sick. 
This high frequency radiation has never been tested for biological effects.  Because it pulses more, and has more waves per second, people will get sicker, faster, with 5G technology. 
Current safety standards are sorely inadequate. 
Here are a few links to critical information concerning health effects from wireless and electronic technology: 
Please do everything to can to assure the safety of the people of America by stopping the Mobile Now Act, stopping the 5G roll-out, stopping the smart meter roll-out, and invoking the Precautionary Principle in regards to all wireless and electronic technology. 
Most Sincerely, 
Jeanine Deal
I encourage YOU to call or write Senator Thune also.  Feel free to use my letter, though it would be better if you stated it in your own words.

Bless us all!

Knowledge Is Useless Unless It's Used



I love how Richard Kimberley, in his blog post titled "What You MUST Know," compares becoming electro-sensitive with a glass slowly being filled with drops of water:
"Imagine a glass under a dripping tap.  You are the glass and the drips are microwave radiation. As the glass fills up throughout your life, there’s no cause for alarm, no damage is perceived as being done.  However, once that glass fills to the top, the trouble is about to start.  The final drip overflows the glass and now we have a mess.  You can move the glass away from the tap, but only a little of the contents will evaporate.  One or two more drips, and we’re overflowing again."
Most people don't feel microwave radiation.  That is, until they do.  When their glass overflows.

Cell phones were no problem for me.  Until they were.  After several months of cell phone use, I started to feel pain and a burning sensation in my "phone ear."  My glass was overflowing.  So I stopped putting the cell phone to my ear, and the pain went away.  My body began to heal, and perhaps some of the water in my glass began to evaporate.


Just a few months after new gas meters were installation, I felt the first symptom of my glass overflowing again.  I didn't know microwave radiation emitting utility meters had been installed.  New gas meters are not called "smart."  But, I found out later, they do pulse microwave radiation over 600 times per hour, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, non-stop.  That's the same frequency as cell phones, by the way.

And the gas company wont remove the new not-smart meters unless we want our natural gas turned-off.  Permanently.

New symptoms of my glass overflowing were occurring, beyond just my phone ear hurting.  I describe some of my experience here and here.  Within a short period of time, I went from radiantly healthy, to achy all over, extremely exhausted, and more.  I was rapidly declining.

Several months later, I identified the problem as being the not-smart gas meters, and began to remedy the microwave radiation problem.  


It's been ten months now since we first blocked the radiation emitting from the not-smart gas meters.  I've also been turning electric breakers off at night, to cut down on the dirty electricity.  Though many of my symptoms have lessened considerably, not all symptoms are gone, and I still don't have the energy I had before not-smart gas meters were installed.  Maybe I never will.  But it is what it is.

Biological effects from microwaves and radiofrequency radiation have been known about for many yearsand have even been researched by NASA.  But our governments seem to be run by large corporations and powerful utility companies, and they seem to be calling many of the shots.  At the expense of human health and safety.


"While human health and safety continue to be dismissed by many, growing scientific evidence is showing a dark side to cell phone, WiFi, smart meter and point-to-point technologies." ~ Dr. Albert Manville, Adjunct Professor, Johns Hopkins University

Is this the world you want to leave to your children's children's children?  One that cares more about profit than human health and safety?

Knowledge is useless unless it's used.

Thank you for reading ~ May all beings be blessed!
