Alarm bells sounded by the National Institute for Science, Law and Public Policy to alert legislators and journalists about the hazards of DECT phones and WiFi.
Prof. Magda Havas, a prominent researcher and voice advising caution in the use of wireless technologies, reviews the independent science on the health hazards of wireless radiation.
Wireless Technologies Cause Harm to Children and Adults
Washington, D.C., June 30, 2009; Today, the National Institute for Science, Law and Public Policy (“NISLAPP”) mailed a report on the health hazards of wireless technologies to Governors, Members of Congress, President Obama and his Administration, as well as to thousands of health and environmental journalists.
Legislators and journalists are being urged to learn about the health consequences of microwave radiation exposure from cell phones, neighborhood antennas, wireless net works, wireless routers, DECT portable phones, and the potential health consequences of further chronic exposures from wireless broadband and new wireless utility technologies.
The National Institute for Science, Law and Public Policy is encouraging all to become engaged with this important public health issue impacting adults and children, as well as animals and nature.
Co-authored by Dr. Magda Havas, Assoc. Professor of Environmental and Resource Studies at Trent University in Canada, and Camilla Rees, Founder of Electromagnetic Health.org, "Public Health SOS: The Shadow Side of the Wireless Revolution" reviews the independent science on the health hazards of wireless radiation and offers recommendations to the public on how to live more safely in a wireless world. It answers 110 questions posed by the audience at the Commonwealth Club of California, the nation’s oldest and largest public affairs forum, at an event co-organized by Wide Angle Health, LLC, Citizens for Health and the American Academy of Environmental Medicine.
Globally, public health officials and health advocacy groups are increasingly concerned about symptoms people are associating with rising levels of indoor and outdoor microwave radiation, known as 'electrosmog', including sometimes debilitating symptoms experienced near cell phone towers. In addition, they are troubled by the impact this radiation may be having on children, who are more vulnerable.
