QUOTE OF
THE WEEK:
"Though
we humans have
indeed been slow
learners, many
have now come to
understand that
exponential
growth cannot be
maintained on a
finite planet.
At this moment in
time, our sense of
inter-dependence
has largely been
uprooted by the
insatiable
appetite of the
global economy.
The metaphorical
umbilical cord
that connects us
to Mother Earth
has been severed. We are
being corralled
into cyber space
and becoming
ever more
dependent on
technology,
stuff, and
services to meet
our every need.
There is no
universal code of
right action for
us all, for nature
never has a single
answer. We all
have a different
set of life
circumstances,
gifts, and
challenges. As the
happenings of the
world permeate our
being, we evolve.
Our intuition
percolates as new
ingredients seep
in. And we may
just find
ourselves guided
toward the
response that
feels right for us
— Moment by
moment, issue by
issue, encounter
by encounter. We
need just open our
hearts and listen
deeply.
And
bit by bit, the
structures that
have defined and
confined our
lives will melt
away and become
the compost of
lived experience
that provides
needed nutrients
as a new
civilization
emerges from the
debris. A
civilization that
embraces our
interconnectedness
with all living
beings, and one
that truly
cherishes life’s
diversity."

INTERNATIONAL
COMMISSION ON THE
BIOLOGICAL EFFECTS
OF ELECTROMAGNETIC
FIELDS (ICBE-EMF)
ICBE-EMF is
made up of a
multi-disciplinary
consortium of
scientists,
doctors and
related
professionals who
are, or have been,
involved with
research related
to the biological
and health effects
of electromagnetic
frequencies up to
and including 300
GHz.
Published
today in the
journal
Environmental
Health by
ICBE-EMF, “Scientific
evidence
invalidates
health
assumptions
underlying the
FCC and ICNIRP
exposure limit
determinations
for
radiofrequency
radiation:
implications
for 5G,”
demonstrates how
the U.S. Federal
Communications
Commission (FCC)
and the
International
Commission on
Nonionizing
Radiation
Protection
(ICNIRP) have
ignored or
inappropriately
dismissed hundreds
of scientific
studies
documenting
adverse health
effects at
exposures below
the threshold dose
claimed by these
agencies, which
was used to
establish human
exposure limits. ICBE-EMF
calls for an
independent
assessment of
the effects and
risks of
radiofrequency
radiation based
on scientific
evidence from
peer-reviewed
studies
conducted over
the past 25
years.
The aim of such
assessment would
be to establish
health protective
exposure standards
for workers, the
public, and the
environment. The
public should be
informed of the
health risks of
wireless radiation
and encouraged to
take precautions
to minimize
exposures,
especially for
children, pregnant
women and people
who are
electromagnetically
hypersensitive.
ICBE-EMF calls for
an immediate
moratorium on
further rollout of
5G wireless
technologies until
safety is
demonstrated and
not simply
assumed.
"It is
mandatory to
review
environmental
radiofrequency
electromagnetic
field measurement
protocols and
exposure
regulations: an
opinion article"
Read
the full
report published
by four Spanish
scientists (Lopez
I, Rivera M, Feliz
N, Maestu C)
"According
to the International
Telecommunication
Union (ITU) World
Telecommunication/ICT
Indicators Database
in 2004 there were
1.76 billion mobile
phone subscriptions
in the world, in
2020 this figure
increased to 8.27
billion (1). By 2023,
there are expected
to be 13.1 billion
mobile terminals,
almost 10% of
which will be 5G
technology. In
conclusion, two main
ideas arise: the
review of the
environmental EMFs
measurement
protocols and the
need for a
comprehensive
assessment of all
the effects of EMFs
not only thermal
effects."
The
lack of
international
and national
health policies
to protect
persons with
self-declared
electromagnetic
hypersensitivity
Electromagnetic
hypersensitivity
(EHS), known
also as an
idiopathic
environmental
intolerance
attributed to
electromagnetic
fields (IEI-EMF)
or a microwave
sickness, is not
considered by
the World Health
Organization
(WHO) as being
caused by the
exposures to
electromagnetic
fields (EMF).
EHS is not
recognized as a
disease anywhere
in the world. Some
studies have
roughly
estimated that
1-10% of the
population
might
experience
some form of
EHS. However,
because of the
lack of
diagnostic
criteria for
EHS, these
estimates might
be either under-
or
over-estimates.
Because the vast
majority of
human population
is exposed to
EMF, the
possibility of
developing EHS
from the EMF
is a
substantial
public health
issue that
should be
dealt with
globally, even
if the
individual risk
of developing
EHS might be
small.

Carcinogenesis
from chronic
exposure to
radio-frequency
radiation
"ALARA
(CDC) = The
guiding
principle of
radiation safety
is “ALARA”.
ALARA stands for
“as low as
reasonably
achievable”.
ALARA means
avoiding
exposure to
radiation that
does not have a
direct benefit
to you, even if
the dose is
small. To do
this, you can
use three basic
protective
measures in
radiation
safety: time,
distance, and
shielding. There
are consistent
indications from
epidemiological
studies and
animal
investigations
that RF
exposure is,
at least,
probably
carcinogenic
to humans. The
principle of
ALARA—as low as
reasonably
achievable—ought
to be adopted as
a strategy for
RF health and
safety
protection.
Groupthink
or herd
mentality is
as rampant
today as ever. Has
science become
partisan? And if
science becomes
partisan, is it
science or
politics, or
would it be
political
science? At
times, science
gets wrapped up
in politics and
politics
intervenes with
science. It may
simply turn out
to be a matter
of guilelessly
being
politically
correct of the
willing. Less
than rigorous
enforcement of
policies in
research conduct
or full
disclosure of
financial
conflicts can
lead to failures
in guiding and
informing the
development of
transparent and
trustworthy
evaluations of
scientific
evidence for
safety
protection.
Scientists may
not always be
consistent,
coherent, or as
transparent as
promoted."

Large
Constellations
of Satellites:
Mitigating
Environmental
and Other
Effects
For
decades,
satellites
have been used
for GPS,
communications,
and remote
sensing. The
number of
satellites has
recently
increased, as
thousands more
have been
launched to
provide
internet
access. But
this increase
may be
disruptive. For
example, it
could lead to
more space
debris, which
can damage
existing
satellites
used for
commerce or
national
security. We
reviewed
technologies
and other
tools to
lessen
potential
effects. We
also looked at
mitigation
challenges,
like unclear
rules and
immature
technology. To
help address
the
challenges, we
developed
policy
options, which
may help
policymakers
achieve a
variety of
goals.
The
GAO Report
assessed
technologies and
approaches to
evaluate and
mitigate the
following
potential
effects:
• Increase
in orbital
debris. Debris
in space can
damage or
destroy
satellites,
affecting
commercial
services,
scientific
observation, and
national
security. Better
characterizing
debris,
increasing
adherence to
operational
guidelines, and
removing debris
are among the
possible
mitigations, but
achieving these
is challenging.
• Emissions
into the upper
atmosphere. Rocket
launches and
satellite
reentries
produce
particles and
gases that can
affect
atmospheric
temperatures and
deplete the
ozone layer.
Limiting use of
rocket engines
that produce
certain harmful
emissions could
mitigate the
effects.
However, the
size and
significance of
these effects
are poorly
understood due
to a lack of
observational
data, and it is
not yet clear if
mitigation is
warranted.
• Disruption
of astronomy. Satellites
can reflect
sunlight and
transmit radio
signals that
obstruct
observations of
natural
phenomena.
Satellite
operators and
astronomers are
beginning to
explore ways of
mitigating these
effects with
technologies to
darken
satellites, and
with tools to
help astronomers
avoid or filter
out light
reflections or
radio
transmissions.
However, the
efficacy of
these techniques
remains in
question, and
astronomers need
more data about
the satellites
to improve
mitigations.

RADIATION
COURT CASE
AGAINST
BELGIUM AND
THE EU
"I
want to inform
you all about
our Belgian
court cases
and their
European and
world-wide
relevance.
Basing
ourselves
primarily on
the
fundamental
rights of the
European Union
and the
European
Convention on
Human Rights
—a unique
approach— we
recently
submitted our
evidence of
close to 8000
pages to the
Belgian
courts. We
not only
invoke EU
fundamental
rights but we
ask the
national judge
to ask the
European Court
of Justice 3
prejudicial
questions. You
can read more here.
Because of the
pronounced
European
dimension in
our cases, we
believe that
what we are
doing is of
direct
relevance to
scientists and
anti-radiation

to Stymie
Future
Wireless
Overreach
Local
activists in
the U.S. are
concerned
about the
accelerating
push of huge
towers and
distributed 5G
minicell
systems. They
have heard
often that
revising their
local city or
county
telecommunications
code is an
essential
safeguard
against
FCC-enabled
stealth and
bullying
tactics of Big
Wireless.
There is an
expertly
recognized
body of
recently
developed
legally
protective
clauses needed
to bolster old
codes. They
empower
governments to
take back
local control
of planning
and safety
from Big
Wireless. The
challenge is
to get local
authorities to
act as they
fear technical
complexity and
they tremble
about legal
trouble from
the FCC or big
telecoms. They
hide behind
inaction,
citing budget
and staff
shortages.
After
navigating a
maze of trial
and error,
Mark Wahl of
CLEAR put
together a
quick,
successful
pathway for
informed
citizens to
achieve a
state-of-the
art protective
wireless code;
it uses a
