Oregon is protecting it's children from wireless radiation. Maura Healey, in Massachusetts, please let us know, what are you doing?

Massachusetts needs to listen, learn and implement not only precautionary principles but proactive protective ones.

All our children deserve to live and learn in a healthy environment. Sleeping next to a cell tower or going to school next to one does not constitute safe. Our kids schooling from home are exposed 24/7 to the tower here.

Thank you good people for caring & sharing.

"A relevant proverb: if you don't want to know, don't ask. Kill the messenger also explains the long history of short-lived studies of the biological impacts of EMF/RF. The latest revelation is from Quirino Balzano, former chief of the world's top laboratory on EMF/RF at Motorola.

Q told me a decade ago that he never imagined phones would be regularly used by toddlers and children.

Turns out the plug was pulled on his studies to understand electromagnetic illness in the 1990s.

The sorry history of steadily defunding studies on EMF/RF further documented since 2010 in my book."

"Cell towers emit high levels of radiofrequency microwave radiation. In 2011, the World Health Organization's International Agency for Research on Cancer classified cell tower radiation as a "2B" carcinogen, putting it in the same category as lead and diesel exhaust."

Long story short, you don't want to live near one of these.

"As a captured agency, the FCC is a prime example of institutional corruption. Officials in such institutions do not need to receive envelopes bulging with cash. But even their most well-intentioned efforts are often overwhelmed by a system that favors powerful private influences, typically at the expense of public interest.

… the auctions of electromagnetic spectrum, used by all wireless communications companies to send their signals, have yielded nearly $100 billion in recent years. The most recent auction to wireless providers produced the unexpectedly high total of $43 billion. No matter that the sale of spectrum is contributing to a pea soup of electromagnetic "smog" whose health consequences are largely unknown. The government needs money and Congress shows its appreciation with consistently pro-wireless policies.

Science is often the catalyst for meaningful regulation. But what happens when scientists are dependent on industry for research funding? Under pressure from budget cutters and deregulators, government funding for research on RF health effects has dried up. The EPA, which once had 35 investigators in the area, has long since abandoned its efforts. 85 Numerous scientists have told me there‘s simply no independent research funding in the U.S. They are left with a simple choice: work on industry-sponsored research or abandon the field.

… an FCC with public interest commissioners is an idea worth consideration. It would at least require party apologists to defend how they so consistently champion the moneyed interests that have purchased disproportionate access and power in Washington.

An Exposé of the FCC: An Agency Captured by the Industries it Regulates An exposé by Norm Alster into how the FCC became a victim of regulatory capture by industry and the implications for our health and safety, our privacy, and our wallets.

⚠️ PLEASE READ: "Did you know that our dog Leia died from cancer 6 months before we found out about Justis' brain tumor?

Leia had a tumor the size of a baseball in her head which is visible in these photos taken just before she passed.

She spent most of her time with Justis in his room while he played video games and streamed his favorite shows.

They were such close friends. Justis was only 4 when we got Leia so they basically grew up together.

There was a lot of wireless radiation in Justis' room.

He played X-Box for hours. His headset and controller were wireless. The X-Box itself had an antenna in it as well.

One of Justis' friends didn't have a headset to communicate while they were playing so he would use his cell phone for the entire duration of the game to chat with him.

He also had a WiFi extender in his room to boost the signal from the router downstairs.

He would do his homework on his laptop prior to playing X-Box and then after playing he would use his iPad for another hour or two before bed.

Please understand that we are telling you this information with good intention.

We are positive that our dog and our son met the same fate due to our lack of understanding.

There is no wireless in our home now.

Everything is wired including the computer with which we are making this post.

With love and respect,

Mike and Christen"

"Alessandro Quadretti created the documentary SENSIBILE, which deals with electro sensitivity.

It is the first Italian documentary about Multiple Chemical Sensitivity (MCS) and Electrosensitivity (EHS), two rapidly developing environmental diseases. In the first case, it concerns the inability to tolerate exposure to chemical substances and in the second case, to electromagnetic fields, even if they are only present in small quantities. It’s important to note that in 75% of cases the “sensitized” persons are women.

In Italy, institutions are slowly recognizing both the diseases and the rights of the affected.

"Sensitive" was produced by Officinemedia in cooperation with the Italian Association of Electro-Sensitive, Remedia malattie e disabilità ambientali ("ReMedia Environmental Diseases and Disabilities") and the Comitato Lecce via cavo and funded in 2017 by crowdfunding, in which dozens of people participated.

An unhealthy, aggressive and inhospitable environment will always pose a threat, even to those who are not sick today."

are you listening? Why are you not taking urgent, immediate action when we send you the cell tower cancer and injury studies?

"Dr John Walker, a scientist who compiled the cluster studies with the help of locals said he was convinced they showed a potential link between the angle of the beam of radiation emitted from the masts' antennae and illnesses discovered in local populations.

"Masts should be moved away from conurbations and schools and the power turned down," he said.

Some scientists already believe such a link exists and studies in other European countries suggest a rise in cancers close to masts."

"Even the CFO of , the nation's largest provider of shared communications infrastructure, states the consensus is cell towers are ugly and that nobody wants them near them."

Legislation giving people the right to know about wireless harm was overturned.

It's called informed consent. People deserve to know the impact exposure may have on them and make choices accordingly.

Too bad the industry and captured agencies that profits from that ignorance does not see it that way and work hard lobbying everyday to keep you in the dark.

Why Die for WiFi? My Child Did - Will Yours?

by Debra Fry

"On the 11th of June 2015, my 15 year old daughter, Jenny Fry was found by me, hanged in woods near our home in Oxfordshire, UK .

She was utterly exhausted; instead of receiving sympathy and understanding, she was battling the school for giving her detentions and refusing to acknowledge her difficulty around wifi, which had a profound effect on her ability to concentrate, write, explain things, and function in school.

I went into the school on several occassions to try to educate them on the health dangers to all pupils and staff, as well as the effect it was having on Jenny, but I was told that for as many reports that there are showing harm, there are as many available online saying that wifi is safe (although I have not seen any saying this).

The head teacher did say he would double check; I left him a list of information - reports and websites - to check. He also said he could not turn off the wifi for one child; I said it was not just for Jenny, but it would be healthier for everyone.

I even had a heated exchange with a member of staff, saying that Jenny is allergic to wifi.

It's the same as a peanut allergy - you would not leave peanuts all around the school, so why expose her to wifi? Knowing that it will cause her problems?

They refused to let me measure with my electrosmog meter to find safer, more comfortable areas for Jenny to work in. And they told me off for taking readings at a parents' evening.

I also contacted the Governors of the school, the local Education Department, the Radiation Advisor used by them, the Chief Scientific Officer, the Chief Medical Officer, the National Radiological Protection board, the Health Protection Agency, Public Health England, and my MP and GPs.

Jenny was an intelligent child who had a great thirst for knowledge, and her education was very important to her. She wanted to put it to good use, and somehow help humanity, as a doctor, exploring the world.

At age 6, she wanted to know how the moon stays up in the sky, and everything about the universe.

She flew through school with no problems until the wifi was fitted in Chipping Norton senior school in November 2012, and for a few months at home.

Jenny was very popular and liked by her peers, and befriended children of all abilities and backgrounds.

She was highly organised and self motivated. She did not have to be asked to do her homework .

She was my wounderful, beautiful, thriving, happy, healthy, helpful, caring, sensitive daughter, until she was exposed to wifi, which emits pulsing microwave radiation, when her physical health began to crumble.

Her death was totally preventable, if I had been listened to earlier.

Her symptoms : headaches, fatigue, joint pains, sleep problems, skin irritation, rash, anaemia, menstrual cycle disruption, heart flutters, difficulty concentrating, temperature control, urine urgency, overwhelming sense of needing to leave some classrooms at school.

She had a really bad nose bleed at home while she was doing home work on her wifi laptop; she came down stairs saying "please help me, I cannot stop my nose bleeding and I have not knocked it." As a nurse, even I had a job to stop it.

We were both so concerned that I looked up nosebleed / wifi online, and was totally shocked at what I found; the more I researched, the more evidence I found from doctors and scientists saying that wifi was not safe for children, just as mobile phones were not.

I was in the back garden on a sunny day, trying to find a school without wifi and continuing my research into the health effects, using a wifi laptop, when I realised - wow this technology is amazing; it's coming through brick walls, just like xrays.

This was the moment I realised how dangerous this stuff could be. But at the time I thought that I was trying to save her from future cancer, future fertility problems, as well as the list of symptoms above.

We immediately switched off the wifi at home and fitted ethernet cables, which helped Jenny to sleep, and helped some of her symptoms to go or improve. However, at school, some would return, or be triggered and exacerbated by their Rukus Zoneflex 7982 wifi.

I was also unknowingly affected by the wifi, having a racing heart, sharp pains in my eyes, and tinnitus, which I had just put down to my age, only to be shocked when I realised they had all gone after we had switched the wifi off for Jenny.

I felt so energised, as it confirmed my diagnosis was right for Jenny - having previously tried new lined curtains, a new mattress, visits to GPs and dentists, but all to no avail.

I could not find a school without wifi. I offered to let her stay and work at home, but she was in the middle of her GCSEs, and wanted to be with her friends.

So I tried again to get the wifi switched off at her school, but although I was now being listened to by someone in high office, it was too late for Jenny.

I miss Jenny everyday, and will spend the rest of my life trying to get justice for her, and campaigning to raise awareness of the health hazards from wifi / microwave radiation exposure, which should never have been put anywhere near our children.

I hope to help her to achieve her dreams of helping humanity, by telling her tragic - but totally preventable - story.

So please join the fight to protect our remaining precious children from wifi - before its too late. Prevention is better than cure.

How? Reduce the tsunami of wifi invading their lives. Switch off wifi in schools, homes and hospitals, and provide wired ethernet access to the internet."

"Sickened residents in , MA have already attempted to work with their city & state legislators and Verizon to disable a cell phone tower, but to no avail. Now they have taken legal action.

The goal of the lawsuit, filed in Berkshire Superior Court, is to allow the city’s board of health to retain independent counsel to investigate and take action on the issue."

Pittsfield can, too! "The cell tower at Forest Heights has finally been removed. Right from the start the residents vehemently opposed the er****on of the mast but all to no avail."

The residents refused to surrender their autonomy to the wireless industry, and can now claim victory after a hard won battle.

Letters were sent to all within the City of Cape Town, including the then mayor, Patricia de Lille. The letters were never responded to or acknowledged.

"RE: Call for the immediate dismantlement of four cell towers which are endangering the health and wellbeing of children.

Letter from Dr. Gavin Davis, 18 May 2017:
Blatant disregard for people’s fundamental human rights.

I write this letter as an angry resident and ratepayer of what has once been a peaceful, cohesive community which has been disrupted by the unscrupulous conduct of people who claim to hold our concerns close to the heart. I am specifically referring to the City of Cape Town, that by order of the Executive Mayor of Cape Town, Mrs Patricia De Lille, decided to approve a Cellular Mast in Forest Glade, Eerste River. This, despite objections and a signed petition from the residents of the area. …..

Letter from Mrs. October, 17 May 2017:
In November 2016 trucks and cranes pulled up at the church and the mast was erected. When we enquired about our appeal we were told that our appeal has been dismissed and the er****on of the cell mast was approved by the Mayor, Patricia De Lille. Not one of the residents was informed about this.

Why is it that only when it comes to elections we have a democratic right to vote but other than that our rights are ignored?"

Cell towers can be sited in more appropriate locations and with community input. Thank you for hearing us and helping us here in Ward 4, Pittsfield.

*Cell tower removed!* “The commitment to dismantle the tower is very satisfying,” said Mayor Drew Fixell.

State Sen. Andrea Stewart-Cousins, D-Yonkers, the Senate Democratic leader, thanked the MTA for hearing the voice of Tarrytown’s residents.

“I thank the MTA for listening to my constituents and respecting our concerns,” she said. “And I especially want to applaud this local community which stayed strong, stood up for our local quality of life, and fought to get results.”

“It’s hard to believe that this project went through a review at all those levels and they still believed it was a good idea to put it there,” said Mayor Fixell. “This isn’t a debate over the effects of radiation from wireless towers. It’s about the tower being 30 feet from a playground. Maybe they thought we wouldn’t notice.”

"Sometimes democracy does work," said Abinanti. "The public was heard and really had an impact on what happened here."

After 1,486 days, we are still waiting. Thank you for your voice and your help here in .

The news of the removal of the Tarrytown cell tower was described as "an early Christmas present." For those of us sleeping in trailers, cars, cottages and displaced, to be and have this finally over would be life changing for the neighbors and the girls.

Other communities come together to remove towers, we can, too!
