Forest Row, East Sussex - residents say 'No' to radiation.

On 9 April 2009, Forest Row residents failed to prevent planning approval, by Wealden District Council, for the installation of third generation (3G) antennae on the mobile phone mast at Forest Row Fire Station.

But the fight goes on.

BioInitiative Report

 

This followed the issue of the BioInitiative Report: A Rationale for a Biologically-based Public Exposure Standard for Electromagnetic Fields (ELF and RF) 31st August 2007. www.bioinitiative.org

An international working group of renowned scientists, researchers and public health policy professionals (The BioInitiative Working Group) has released its report on electromagnetic fields (EMFs) and health.

After reviewing over 2000 research publications scientists raise concerns about the safety of existing public limits that regulate how much EMF is allowable from power lines, mobile phones, and many other sources of EMF exposure in daily life.

The report documents scientific evidence raising worries about health impacts including childhood leukemia (from power lines and other electrical exposures), brain tumors and acoustic neuromas (from mobile phones and cordless phones) and Alzheimers disease. There is evidence that EMFs area risk factor for both childhood and adult cancers.

Public health expert and co-editor of the Report, Dr David O Carpenter, Director, Institute for Health and the Environment at the University of Albany, New York states: "This report stands as a wake-up call that long-term exposure to some kinds of EMFs may cause serious health effects. Good public health planning is needed now to prevent cancers and neurological diseases linked to exposure to power lines and other sources of EMFs. We need to educate the public and our decision makers that business as usual is unacceptable."

RNCNIRP - Mobile phones high risk for children's health

Please see attached important announcement about the potential high risks for children's health in the near future with regards to using mobile phones according to the opinion of Professor Yury Grigoriev, Chairman of Russian National Committee on Non-Ionising Radiation Protection, RNCNIRP.

I would sincerely like to thank Professor Grigoriev and the Russian Committee for providing this important information. I hope the Governments and authorities throughout the world listen to his wise words of advice with regards to the very high risks for children's health when using mobile phones and take measures to urgently inform parents, teachers and doctor's to promote this message and protect the health and futures of our children.

Please encourage the Government to implement legislation to stop the promotion and marketing to children and adopt protection for this vulnerable group now!

If you are concerned about any of the above and cant quite put your finger on the cause, we invite you to participate in our Research Survey.  We have a form that can be submitted anomalously that if we get large enough numbers completed, may well help many Universities with their research, and provide definitive answers.

 

Even if you don’t believe you are being affected or even think EMR is probably not a threat, please complete the form.  The larger the numbers surveyed the more representative the results will be and there is no rush, this survey will never close; the cumulative results will be invaluable to the medical research departments in universities world over, looking for cures to all EMR related complaints.
