John Wargo, Ph.D., professor of Environmental Risk and Policy at Yale University and lead author of the report, said, “The scientific evidence is sufficiently robust showing that cellular devices pose significant health risks to children and pregnant women.”

Frequent texting means cell phones are often kept in a pocket all day and under a pillow or on a teenager’s bed at night.

Exposures to electromagnetic radiation are increasing most rapidly among the youngest in our society, as service providers focus their advertising on children and educational markets.”

Chris Varcoe, president of the Mississauga Fire Fighters Association, expressed concern about plans by the municipality to locate cell towers at City facilities, including fire stations.

“We believe that there are established biological effects from exposure to low-level cell tower radiation,” said Varcoe. “Such biological effects may be markers of adverse health effects, similar to biological markers arising from exposure to toxic chemicals. Therefore, we strongly object to placement of cell towers on our fire stations and request that you carefully consider placements for towers on City properties or withhold the decision altogether until the true health effects are known.”

Another school, known for its advanced computer lab, has removed its Wifi, following warnings that the system emits potentially harmful microwave radiation and now hardwires all of its internet connections.

“Schools are in the business of helping children, not hurting them so we shouldn’t be taking chances,” said Principal Brenda Glashan.

“Placing cell towers on school property unnecessarily places our children in potential danger and could even be viewed as experimenting with our children’s health. I am strongly committed to stopping these efforts to put cell phone towers on school property.”

Drenner, however, has a background in radiation physics and said she believes the school system didn’t act with necessary caution approving the deal. She has a bachelor’s of science in radiation physics from West Virginia State University and a master’s and a doctorate in environmental science. She also has worked as a radiation safety officer in California and calculated radiation exposure at a uranium enrichment facility in Ohio.

“And everywhere you look, on every factory and dormitory, in every stairwell and atrium, are suicide nets.

A rush by the Energy Department to use stimulus money to modernize the country’s power grid has left the system vulnerable to cyberattacks, the agency’s internal watchdog found.

Inspector General Gregory H. Friedman found “shortcomings” in the cybersecurity plans of more than a third of the utility companies that got federal funding for “smart grid” projects — from incomplete strategies to prevent an attack to vague steps for stopping one if it started.

Of 99 grants awarded to utilities — ranging from $400,000 to $200 million — 36 recipients did not take all the required security steps to ward off a cyberattack, auditors found. Even though Energy Department officials told the utilities to update their plans, many did not.

In America, utility companies have been hit with multi-million dollar class action lawsuits from people who have had the devices installed in their homes.

The move is a victory for campaign groups and backbench MPs, who raised concerns with ministers that the devices emit electromagnetic radiation 24 hours a day and cannot be turned off.

“We will launch a study to gauge whether there is any adverse effect of radiation on health of people,” the officials said adding electromagnetic radiation takes place not only from mobile towers but from a number of other equipment.

We noted that Novartis AG, the drug company that first went public with its intentions to license the technology, did not even plan to conduct clinical trials on the technology to prove its safety and efficacy…[Two-way microchips, such as Smart Meters and cell phones, emit microwave radiation and have been tied to health problems.]

Through GIS, the researcher noted that the South-Central region of Belo Horizonte has the highest concentration of antennas and the highest rate of cumulative incidence of cancer deaths. The lowest mortality rates from cancer are in the area of ​​Barreiro, where the lowest number of antennas were installed.

The researcher selected 4924 cancer deaths, from types – prostate, breast, lung, kidney, liver–that are recognized in the scientific literature as related to electromagnetic radiation.

Professor Adilza Dode developed a new methodology, using the GIS of the city to find out how far away from the antennas lived 4,924 people who died during the period. “They lived up to 500 meters from the antennas, and made up 81.37% of deaths by cancer (within ten years).”
