Disturbing honeybees’ behavior with electromagnetic waves: a methodology

Posted by seumasach on August 14, 2017

Journal of Behaviour

9th May, 2017

Abstract

Mobile phone companies and policy makers point to studies with contradictory results and usually claim that there is a lack of scientific proof of adverse effects of electromagnetic fields on animals. The present perspective article describes an experiment on bees, which clearly shows the adverse effects of electromagnetic fields on these insects’ behavior. The experiment should be reproduced by other researchers so that the danger of manmade electromagnetism (for bees, nature and thus humans) ultimately appears evident to anyone.

An invisible danger

Una amenaza invisible

Canal Sur

This documentary from Andalucian television exposes fully the toxic nature of the radiation which we are now being exposed to continually, the greatest threat to humanity and the environment which we face. A must view, including footage from the US embassy affair in the sixties. Quite a lot of it is in English for those of you who don’t understand Spanish

EM radiation and the survival of the bees

La multiplication des réseaux d’ondes électromagnétiques peut-elle avoir une incidence sur la survie des abeilles?

23rd August

Cela paraît impensable, mais des études scientifiques au protocole strict ont démontré que ce réseautage avait des effet néfastes. Des champs électromagnétiques externes provoquent une contraction des petits cristaux de magnétite (Fe3O4) que les hyménoptères utilisent pour s’orienter.

Next-up a publié cet article le 7 février 2013. Dr. Favre donnera une conférence sur “Influence des ondes électromagnétiques sur le comportement des abeilles” lors du 9e Congrès national de l’électrosmog à Berne le 20 avril 2013. Dr. Favre est aussi membre du Comité de l’ARA (Association romande alerte aux ondes électromagnétiques), Morges, Suisse.  Voici l’étude du Dr. Favre, publié en anglais en 2011 dans le journal “Apidologie”.  Voir aussi ce document par Ulrich Warnke, “La destruction de la nature par l’électrosmog : des abeilles, des oiseaux et des hommes” (2007).

Effects of Electric Charges on Honeybees

 

Plants could turn out to be one of the more chatty organisms. Recent studies have shown they can communicate with a surprising range of cues. Now it turns out they could be sending out electrical signals, too.

RESONANCE is a sensational eye-opening documentary that reveals the harm we are doing by existing in an ocean of man made wireless frequencies.

http://vimeo.com/54189727#

Under 3% of the Global population was using cellphones in the mid eighties whereas today, about 99% of people use cellphones on a daily basis. In the last 25 years, species endowed with a magnetic sense have declined significantly. Bee populations are highly affected and have dropped by up to 70% worldwide, 35 Species of Australian shore-bird population decreased to up to 75%, all European grassland butterflies declined 50%. Bees pollinate over 90% of the world’s plants! Cellphones could end up costing us civilization itself.

Dutch court overturns cell permit on concern for bees

Posted by seumasach on November 10, 2012

Telecom Paper

5th November, 2012

A court in Zutphen, Netherlands has annulled a permit for a UMTS antenna due to beekeeping activities in the area. The Winterswijk municipality gave KPN the permit to build the tower in November 2010. Five local residents filed an appeal against the permit, and the court found that the city did not motivate its decision well enough to show there would be no negative consequences from the cell site. One of the residents keeps bees around 80m from the proposed site; in the appeal against the site, he pointed to research in Germany and Switzerland on the effects of electromagnetic radiation on bees. The city pointed to other research showing bee deaths related to other factors and said the radiation in this case would be much less than in the German research. However the court found that the city needed to provide more concrete sources of research to sustain its argument and it could not be ruled out that the site would have an effect on the bees.

Pesticides are a major contributor to bee colony collapsedisorder (CCD), according to governments and the scientific community. But are they too quick to dismiss a link between CCD and electromagnetic radiation (EMR) from mobile phones and other sources?
