The Canadian initiative to stop Wireless Electrical and Electromagnetic Pollution
5 April 2016Representatives from Kauai's conservation community recently met with representatives from the Pacific Missile Range Facility to discuss concerns that electromagnetic radiation coming from the high-powered radar and antennas could be the cause of coral's decline.
Electromagnetic radiation is composed of waves — just like light is, except that electromagnetic radiation isn't visible to the human eye. According to scientific models, the radiation covers much of the northwest part of the island.
"If we could see the radiation like we can see light, the entire island would be lit up 24/7," Lilley said. "That's now much we're exposed to every day."

Tomanova K, Vacha M. The magnetic orientation of the Antarctic amphipod Gondogeneia antarctica is cancelled by very weak radiofrequency fields. J Exp Biol. 2016 Mar 29. pii: jeb.132878. [Epub ahead of print]
Abstract
Studies on weak man-made radiofrequency electromagnetic fields (RF) affecting animal magnetoreception aim for a better understanding of the reception mechanism and also point to a new phenomenon having possible consequences in ecology and environmental protection. RF impacts on magnetic compasses have recently been demonstrated on migratory birds and other vertebrates.
We set out to investigate the effect of RF on the magnetic orientation of the Antarctic krill species Gondogeneia antarctica, a small marine crustacean widespread along the Antarctic littoral line.
Here, we show that having been released under laboratory conditions,G. antarcticaescaped in the magnetically seaward direction along the magnetic sea-land axis (Y-axis) of the home beach. However, the animals were disoriented after being exposed to RF. Orientation was lost not only in an RF of a magnetic flux density of 20 nT, as expected according to the literary data, but even under the 2 nT originally intended as a control. Our results extend recent findings of the extraordinary sensitivity of animal magnetoreception to weak RF fields in marine invertebrates.

The project aims to provide a regulatory framework to "radio infrastructure with radiant systems, antennas and all installations capable of generating electromagnetic radiation" in order to "ensure the protection of public health" considering "both thermal effects and biological ".
In education and health facilities only wired connections to data networks and Internet access may be used. In hospitals phones may not be used in areas that health authorities have higher health risk.
Pediatricians in Italy ask to prohibit cell phones for children under 10 years old
Sara Ficocelli
The Italian Society for Preventive and Social Pediatrics, raises the alarm: cell phones for children under 10 years old, need to be prohibited. Loss of concentration, difficulty to learn and aggressiveness, according to the experts, are among the harmful effects for health that smartphone provoke in the smallest.
22% of children use it 1 hour adapt and 23% up to 4 hours.
In Lazio regions, beyond 50% of the children between age 6 and 7 years old use tablet 1 or 2 hours a day, up to 4 hours. At 10 years old, the threshold is above 60%.
Giuseppe Di Mauro, president of the Italian Society of social and preventive pediatrics [Società italiana di pediatria preventiva e sociale (www.sipps.it)] – we do not know all the consequences associated with cell phone use, but excessive use could can lead to concentration and memory loss, increase in aggressiveness and sleep disturbances. I think that children don't have to use cell phone, if their parents can not help but give their children this object, I hope that is used for a short time, avoiding their use of many hours, exchanging text messages, chatting or surfing.
The other big problem is the use of cell phone. The use of cell phone is indeed related to the behavioral sphere: not only does the abuse of smartphone cause addiction, but it would be at the basis of anti-social behavior and the inability of children to build stable relationships with the people who live around them.
Are many - concludes Di Mauro - the guys who, while being close to each other, do not talk but they continue to keep their gaze fixed on the mobile phone. If we do not put a stop to this veritable invasion, the new generations will increasingly go towards isolation

One reason that many people who aren't made ill by other wireless devices are becoming sick from smart meter exposure is that meters, essentially plugged into the back of your breaker box, radiate transmissions on home wiring, all of the time. This exposes the whole body, and everyone in the home, nonstop

WHO - Electromagnetic fields and public health: radars and human health
More false information from the World Heath Organization!:
The ICNIRP guidelines protect against all established RF health effects and are developed following reviews of all the peer-reviewed scientific literature, including reports on cancer and non-thermal effects.
To date, researchers have not found evidence that multiple exposures to RF fields below threshold levels cause any adverse health effects.
After reading this rubbish you may want to ask: Are they all really stupid, or are they just common criminals?

WI-FRIED! "Teachers At Risk from Wi-Fi"
Please see the article a retired teacher submitted to the BC Teachers' Federation magazine about the effects of wifi in schools. This information needs to reach teachers and parent because school boards are preventing information from reaching them now. Provincial health officers are telling school boards that wifi is safe, leading to trustees refusing to allow information to be disseminated.
