Dear Sounds Like Canada
During the 'Sounds Like Canada' radio
program last Thursday 17 January 2008, you had a segment in which you read
comments sent to you by listeners in regards to previous shows.
There were several comments read about cell phone towers and then
host, Kevin Sylvester introduced Dr. Bridget Stutchbury the author of a
book entitled Silence of the Songbirds http://www.harpercollins.ca/songbirds/.
Kevin asked Dr. Stutchbury - "We were talking earlier about electro magnetic
radiation, what kinds of effects have you noticed or found out about that on
songbirds"? Dr. Stutchbury's answer was a
shock to me, she stated "As far as we know there is no impact on birds, they
can't even detect them".
Although most of my files on electro magnetic
radiation concern the terrible health effects on the human population, I have
attached several documents which clearly show that a great many species of birds
are being severely harmed by electro magnetic radiation, all around the
world. I found it shocking that the author, a biologist, educated at Yale
could be so very much mistaken about how birds are being harmed by electro
magnetic radiation. She has provided
incorrect information to a large percentage of the population of
Canada!
It is vitally important for the Canadian public to
be presented with the true facts about how birds are being harmed by this
dangerous new technology. Please present the true situation about EMR and
birds as soon as possible.
Yours sincerely
