Plans to give the green light for children to use cellphones – despite cancer fears – have angered health campaigners.

The draft of a new advisory leaflet for parents by the British Department of Health removes safety advice to impose strict limits on youngsters’ use of the handsets. Read the rest of this entry »

Today I am homeless. My money does not provide me shelter. My good health does not ensure my survival. My friends are unable to help me. I am being killed, but the law offers me no protection.

A court in France has ordered the dismantling of a cell phone mast based on the ‘precautionary principle’ because there is insufficient proof that cell phones are harmless. The suit was initiated by residents in the vicinity of the tower against cell phone company Bouygues Telecom. Following the judgements of the Nanterre TGI (District Court) and the Versailles Appeal Court  Bouygues Telecom began dismantling its phone mast  in the early morning of March 6, 2009.

Radiation from artificial electromagnetic fields: France begins to take it seriously?

– There is a significant rise in awareness among French people of the damage that artificial radiation n the microwave hyperfrequency range can cause to human health. – Every day front-page stories and press articles all over the country highlight people’s growing concern, and their testimonies provide damning evidence. – Le Dauphiné front page : Relay antennas in the dock “Psychosis in the Drôme Ardèche?” – Le Midi Libre front page Beziers “Relay antennas : anxiety is spreading”

Electromagnetic Fields and Health: Executive Report- Andrew Galsworthy

Membrane leakage

Scribd.com

All the living cells in our bodies are surrounded by membranes just two molecules

thick. Most of these molecules are negatively charged and tend to repel one

another. However, they are held together by positive ions (mainly calcium) that fit

in between them. The ions’ forces of attraction for the negative molecules

on either side help to bind them together like mortar holding together the bricks of

a wall.

Extremely weak alternating electromagnetic fields, similar to those produced by

Wifi, cell phones, cordless phones, and their respective base stations, can act on

these calcium ions and dislodge them. This weakens the membrane and makes it

more inclined to leak. Very little energy is required since the calcium has to be

moved only far enough from the membrane for an alternative ion (usually

potassium) to sneak into its place. Since potassium (with only one positive

charge) is less good than calcium (which has two charges) at holding the

membrane together, it still leaks.

MOBILES ‘COULD DAMAGE YOUR HEART AND KIDNEYS’; New health warning

Posted by seumasach on January 4, 2009

Sunday Mirror

12th Decemeber, 2008

A DISTURBING new report claims that mobile phones could cause serious long-term damage to the heart and kidneys.

Scientists found that exposing red blood cells to low-level radiation caused them leak a subsance called haemoglobin.

The iron-based part of a red blood cell is vital because it carries oxygen around the body.

But if the haemoglobin leaks from the cells then it accumulates in the kidneys and heart, which could seriously damage your health. Read the rest of this entry »

Mobile phone use ‘raises children’s risk of brain cancer fivefold’

Mobile phone use ‘raises children’s risk of brain cancer fivefold’
Alarming new research from Sweden on the effects of radiation raises fears that today’s youngsters face an epidemic of the disease in later life
By Geoffrey Lean, Environment Editor

Independent.co.uk
Children and teenagers are five times more likely to get brain cancer if they use mobile phones, startling new research indicates.

The study, experts say, raises fears that today’s young people may suffer an “epidemic” of the disease in later life. At least nine out of 10 British 16-year-olds have their own handset, as do more than 40 per cent of primary schoolchildren. Read the rest of this entry »

South Africa: Cellphone Signal Concerns Raised Again

South Africa: Cellphone Signal Concerns Raised Again

FRESH concern is being raised about the potential dangers of cellphone usage – especially as SA begins to roll out higher-power broadband technologies.

The radiation generated by cellphones and base stations has been under scrutiny for years. But for every report proclaiming a health risk, another proves inconclusive or dismisses previous research as scare-mongering.

Now the local branch of the Electromagnetic Action Group (Emag SA) has collated studies from around the world and is calling on network operators and Icasa, the industry regulator, to recognise and minimise the risks. Read the rest of this entry »

Forget climate change – the bees are buzzing off

August 14, 2008 Olivepress

“In a pandemic which has been dubbed Apian Flu and Mad Bee Disease, there is no shortage of suspects. Parasites, viruses, pesticides, climate change, GM crops and even radiation from mobile phones interfering with bee navigation. These have all been cited as the main culprit.
But without evidence, these remain simply theories.” As for evidence check here , here and here

If bees became extinct today, mankind would follow suit in 2012. Albert Einstein proclaimed this insect the most important factor in our food chain. As their numbers dwindle, BOB MADDOX believes we must refocus our attentions and save the humble bumble bee Read the rest of this entry »
