The reckless depredations of corporate power and neo-Malthusian enthusiasts within the elite threaten our environment and our very survival. EM radiation,disappearing bees and pollinators, heavy metal toxicity, GM crops and soil depletion are amongst the most immediate dangers we face.
Meaford’s St. Vincent Euphrasia Elementary School(SVE) elected Parent Council announced in a media release on Friday that its parents have voted to turn off the school’s WiFi transmitters, and connect to the internet with hard-wires.
Canada became the first country in the world yesterday to declare bisphenol A (BPA) to be a toxic substance that poses risks to human health and the environment.
Mobile phone technology is basically military technology- any limitations on public exposure to protect public health would compromise military operations. Therefore in NATO countries , at least, such limitations must be prevented.
For this to hit the mainstream media is definitely a step forward. However, the focus is far too narrow. There are other sources of EM radiation pollution apart from mobile phones. Most prominently. chordless DECT phones and wi-fi. Most homes now seem to have these and are therefore are being subjected to 24 hour a day exposure regardless of whether they live in proximity to a phone mast or not. Here is a recent study on the impact of DECT phones, a source of non-stop emissions, and an article on the impact of wi-fi.
Could mobile phones be giving us brain cancer? And has the mobile phone industry spent years trying to bury the scientific evidence that it does in order to protect its $3 trillion, 4.6billion- customer, global business?
Amidst fears that conspiracy theorists may undermine US national security by pointing out the effect of EM radiation on honey bees and other life forms and thereby compromising the top secret HAARP and the Total Information Awareness projects, the Department of Homeland Security has confirmed its leading role in investigations into the mystery of the disappearing bees. This follows up their brilliant research showing that bees can detect landmines, a discovery which underlines the importance of preventing their complete disappearance. Their unprecedented role in an apparently civilian project has brought them face to face with new challenges, not least of which is the technique required to mash up dead bees, if they can find any, for analysis.
GM soy a death sentence for humans and the environment
Argentina has become a giant experiment in farming genetically modified (GM) Roundup Ready (RR) soy, engineered to be tolerant to Roundup, Monsanto’s formulation of the herbicide glyphosate. The Argentine government, eager to pull the country out of a deep economic recession in the 1990s, restructured its economy around GM soy grown for export, most of which goes to feed livestock in Europe. In 2009, GM soy was planted on 19 million hectares – over half of Argentina’s cultivated land – and sprayed with 200 million litres of glyphosate herbicide [1]. Spraying is often carried out from the air, causing problems of drift.
Peterborough’s Medical Officer of Health, Dr. Rosana Pellizzari, talked about WiFi in schools to the Kawartha Pine Ridge District School Board last week and said that anyone can cherry-pick results to support their conclusions and this is exactly what she did.
The following is a quick summary of another twenty papers that have come out over the last few months related to effects of electromagnetic radiation. Some of the papers are notable papers that have been published very recently, others are papers that were published a few months ago that have not yet made it to one of the Science Updates.
“Some things need doing better than they’ve ever been done before. Some things just need doing. Others don’t need doing at all. Know which is which.” — source unknown
Electrical conflicts between a very fast frequency and biologic systems that don’t function at those frequencies — stop the problem or hell is coming for what we are doing. This is like a sci-fi movie, where humans and the ecosystems that sustain us are irradiated — except this is reality.
