Smart meter killed our bees
Three hives gone within 3 days of installation of smart meters
FYI--direct from the ranch
We had three bee hives that were healthy and had no other reason to leave--when bees are uncomfortable, threatened, or lack food sources, they leave. Now, a colony will leave individually, yet these hives, all on completely different areas of the property left with in three days of the installation of a PGE smart meter. We also called PGE and asked them not to install, and they did when we were off the property.
I have read reports on the smart meters and was not enrolled that they were/are safe and now have evidence that they effected our personal livelihood and lost three hives which equates to $250/hive loss, pollination loss to fruit tress (bees pollinate 80% of all fruits and vegetables) $5k+/-, and honey as a source of medicine and food $4k.
The math does not equate, the loss of pollination does not equate, and the rapid push of PGE to do this just because they may be at a financial loss--does not equate when it DOES in FACT harmfully effect our community, livelihoods, and food stuffs.
I have experienced this personally and documented it.

Thank you for listening and doing the right thing.

No Time To Waste
Since we received smart meters, my dog (yellow lab) died of heart failure and two neighbors' dogs - one developed a virulent cancer at 9 years old and died within 3 months of getting it, got sick about 8 months after the meters were installed. That meter is on their bedroom, as is mine. I surely am in terrible health since the meter went in, and so has my adult son been, till we figured that out and keep him away from it.

News from a friend in New York where Smart Meters have been deployed for two-three years: "In the last 2-3 years, so many people are sick, and people have died. There have been several in their late 40's and 50's who have died of massive heart attacks in the last 2-3 years, and people whose cancer has reoccurred. I live in a small village, and this is a lot of people who are ill and have died. I am very suspicious why this is happening."

We know that Electromagnetism breaks the blood brain barrier.
Electrosensative people were found to have more mast cells in their skin when exposed to a TV on their backs.
This was seen in skin samples, taken from their backs after exposure by Professor Olle Johansson.
See mystery in the skin, by him.

Does life online give you 'popcorn brain'?
Our results suggested that long-term internet addiction would result in brain structural alterations, which probably contributed to chronic dysfunction in subjects with IAD. The current study may shed further light on the potential brain effects of IAD.

We have a new petition against "smart' meters. If you don't already know about them, you will soon, no matter where you are on earth. They are like mini cell towers, only attached right on your home and can be involuntary in many places around the world. This lethal roll out in the face of the recent IARC class 2 b classification of electromagnetic fields as a possible human carcinogen is a disgrace, shameful and UNACCEPTABLE. You can sign this petition no matter what state or country you are in. If you live in another country, I will 'can' your signatures after a month or so. Just ask me to do so.
We also have a "tell a friend follow up where you can send the petition to others on your list and a donate link as this petition costs us money since it is specifically targeted by zip code and delivered in real time to our reps, the white house, etc. So please pass it on and please donate what you can to help us pay for this petition.
This week I had the privilege of being interviewed again on The Power Hour with Joyce Riley. This time it was myself and Prof. Olle Johansson from the Karolinska Institute in Sweden who is currently being discriminated against because of his non industry stance on cell non ionizing radiation and heath effects.
I have also posted the interviews from last month as it gives some background on things and this month I was focused primarily on actions that the public can take to protect themselves from smart meters, but last months interview may give a little more info on smart meters themselves. Olle Johansson is brilliant and I want to thank our fantastic host Joyce Riley for giving this issue a platform from which the non industry POV on this issue can be heard.

And finally, documentary filmmaker and journalist Julius Morten has made multiple videos on Dr. Olle Johansson and Monica Nilsson, another investigative journalist on this issue. I have not watched them all but what I have seen is well worth your time.
35 interview videos with Olle Johansson from May 2008 to October 2010 -

I know there's a lot of content in this email. But the issue is rail road-ing right over us all if we do not do something about it, so the more material you have to educate yourself, the better off we all are.
Thank you for your time and attention, Liz

Fort Calhoun nuclear power plant: Fuel Storage and Flood Alert
Where is the news coverage?
This document (376 pp) is quite remarkable as a marketing tool. I have glanced at it and plan to read it more carefully but I thought I would bring it to your attention.
There is a section on e-health, e-education, and much, much more! However, there is no mention that electromagnetic radiation may be harmful to human health or that it might affect wildlife.
