Electromagnetic Pollution And Its Health Effects On The Organism
Ivan Figueroa Otero MD FACS
The Great New Scourge Of The 21 St Century
Letrsquos Not Repeat The Mistakes Of Our Past
Purpose
bull To Promote awareness within the medical community and the general public of the significant reality of the resulting sanitary effects upon the human organism associated with exposure to RF and EMF at present levels
bull To describe in detail the documented health effects published in the medical literature associated with EMF and RF
bull To promote a continuous effort of rigorous scientific analysis of the issue by all related academic fields
bull From which qualified guidelines and reccomendations will direct the regulating government agencies to take the right preventive and corrective measures
The Actual Problem
The uncontrolled and progressive growth of modern communication technologies associated with increased industrialization has exploded into one of the biggest crisis of pollution the world has seen during the 20th and 21st century Although unquestionably necessary for the economic progress of all societies its not so clear if the resulting health effects justify the impending epidemic effects that can arise from it

The Scientific-Legal Paradox (They are innocent until proven guilty)
bull 1 Obsolete Scientific Paradigms that stubbornly resist accepting the incoming new scientific evidence Such as
ndash The only damage that occurs by non ionizing radiation in biologic tissues is caused by heating
ndash This paradigm is based by studying the structural alteration of biologic systems without considering the functional effects upon the cell and the organism as a whole
Other Problems
ndash These are the concepts that have guided the regulating agencies like the FCC to establish the levels of exposure limits of the RF in the USA
2 The Exponencial Growth of the sources radiations
The boom in all technology oriented consumer and industrial equipment has exponentially multiplied exposure in record time
Other Problems
3 The lack of clinical human scientific statistically validated studies that could confirm decisively the causal relationship between RFrsquos and specific disease 4 The ldquodrag your feet reactionrdquo of the industry by minimizing the existent epidemiologic experimental and clinical evidence because it fails to meet ideal standards of causal relationship without pausing to consider the effects that will occur later when the evidence finally comes out
Other Problems
5 The very lax regulation of US Agencyrsquos standards of emissions compared to other industrial nations 6 Everyone agrees that we need more studies to evidence the possible health effects yet nobody meanwhile considers any preventive measures Who shall carry this burden The Culprit or the Victim
A Scientific Controversy Arises
bull The Interphone Study that arises from the growing number of epidemiologic studies world wide linking brain tumors with cell phone use forced the industry to promote a study to disprove this evidence
bull This controversial and poorly designed study didnt come out the way they wanted and after several months of both sides claiming victory forced the WHO to assign an international group of experts to study all the available data and recommend
What The WHO Found
bull Please be aware that ip to that point in time no study had been done to analyze the effects of cell phones in children in relation to brain tumors
bull In May 2011 a committee of 71 scientific experts invited by the WHO after reviewing all the previous data concluded that microwaves as cancerigenous as lead chloroform and certain pesticides
bull No preventive measures recommended
What The WHO Found
bull Also concluded (From the Interphone study the industry had concluded otherwise) that a definitive increase in brain tumors was determined scientifically by 40 in the same side of the brain for cell user of at least 30 minutesday
bull We have to question if the number of 30 minutes reflects the real average time of a frequent user
bull iquestWhat would have been the incedence of tumors in users above 30 minutes
bull What would have been the incidence in exposed children at different levels
The Obsolescence of Present Regulations Standards
bull The present law was created in 1996 when the cell phone was still in diapers and wireless systems were not even in use (No 3G or 4G systems yet)
bull The power of big company lobbying is plainly seen under the regulation of Communication tower zoning when out of nowhere a sentence forbids the opposition to a placement of towers for health reasons
The Obsolescence of Present Regulations Standards
bull Yet ironically you may oppose it for reasons that affect property values
bull And the emissions safety standards were those that prevented thermal damages to adjacent persons only
bull Donrsquot you think 18 years is enough time to reconsider a law that regulates a rapidly evolving field
These are The Danger Zones For Cooking Our Brains What would tha new zones be for
Biologic Effects
Other Factors Other Than Distance To Consider For Intensity Of Transmission
bull In view of fact that the transmission intensity is also affected by ndash Call Traffic Density(active users)
ndash of Providers in nearby Tower
ndash And the new 3G and 4G systems are more powerful than those at time making the 1966 law
Results then that users that live within hundreds (100rsquos) meters from the towers will be exposed to intensities 1000 to 10000000 X higher than those farther away
Influence Of The Of Servers On The Tower And Buildings
bull The power intensity of transmission will be directly proportional to the of servers on the tower or building
bull Then we must realize that the safety limits established by the FCC for individual towers will be easily and ldquolegallyrdquo surpassed
bull If we add that new transmissions will be at higher levels when 3G and 4G are fully operational then we can understand the significant increase of exposure that nearby residents will encounter
Building Biology Institute Germany provided
following guidelines for exposure
bull lt01 μWm2 (000001 W μcm2) ndash no concern
bull 01 - 10 μWm2 (000001 to 0001 μWcm2) - slight concern
bull 10 - 1000 μWm2 (0001 to 01 μWcm2) - severe concern (USA)

What is The Sar
bull Specific Absortion Rate- Its the thermal absorption rate of biologic tissues based on weight within a certain time frame Its the cooking rate of human flesh the safety rate for us is very very rare
bull All that this rating assures is that our brains will not be cooked with average user rate
bull The SAR has no assurance of biologic damage prevention since the industry denies its existence
Physical Effects of RF
bull Because no biologic effects are accepted yet
bull A cell phone transmitts 1 to 2 Watts within a frequency range of 824 - 849 MHz (CDMA) 890 - 915 MHz (GSM900) and 1710 ndash 1780 MHz (GSM1800) (Remember 3G and 4G are stonger)
bull 3G transmitts a 2110 ndash 2170 MHz
Physical Effects of RF
bull In the USA SAR cell phone limit is 16WKg that would be reached with an exposition time of 6 minutes per day Since the margin of safety established is between 3 to 4 times the limit An adultrsquos limit should not be more than 18 to 24 minutes per day Are you kidding me
bull How about kids here How about the additional exposure created by wireless sytems

Can We Then Conclude That School WiFi Systems Are safe
bull Most of the European Community doesnt and have postponed their establishment until further evidence show they are safe
bull Why not give the same opportunity to our children bull Why not use wired systems if they are the most
efficient of the two bull Are we not repeating the same mistakes of the past we
did with nicotine and cancer and lead and nerve damage
bull Shouldnrsquot we be studying more in detail the emerging evidence of the epidemiology of brain tumors in children as the exposure years increase
iquestWhat Are WiMAX
bull These are new wireless system technology that promise to increase the geographic extension of
bull So far they have shown effectivity up to 4-5 miles but they are trying to extend its range by increasing the strenght of the signals to 4G and the tower density
What Are WiMAX
bull These is an Executive branch project of the USA that plans to establish a nationwide broadband system to insure national security
bull Although no one can argue with that intention we must then ask What is wrong in doing it by fiber optic based networks
bull Arent wireless systems more prone to security risks and privacy issues
Questions That Arise From This Review
bull If the Wimax is just a more powerful WiFI with a wider range considering the risks previously discussed here Will not then its effects be more significative being the fact that a larger population sample will be exposed for a longer period of time (Are we not talking here about a massive population experiment since no previous data has determined the safety of)
Letrsquos No Monkey Around
Letrsquos Act In Solidarity
Conclusions bull 1 Although the present scientific data fails to clinch the final
link between EMF and disease patterns the growing emerging experimental and clinical evidence has a tendency to favor this connection
bull 2 Itrsquos from these evidence that the need to take mitiganting and preventive measures arises before the final verdict comes trough
bull 3 For these actions to arise from our government we need the support of all individuals professional and community based organizations to lobby towards this effort This effort will be kindled by massive educational efforts at all levels
bull 4 We must specially focus our efforts in the highest risk populations which are pregnant women children and the elderly
Reccomendations
bull Establish an inmediate moratorium on school WiFi Systems and WiMax for extensive populations
bull Review and update the 1966 FCC Communications law in accordance of present evidence Specially the criteria for Tower locations and levels of emissions
bull Create a biologic tissue risk emission rate simialr to the SARS (BSARS=Biologic Specific Absorption Rate)
bull Promote the use of Fiber Optics for the development of the national broadband effort
Purpose
bull To Promote awareness within the medical community and the general public of the significant reality of the resulting sanitary effects upon the human organism associated with exposure to RF and EMF at present levels
bull To describe in detail the documented health effects published in the medical literature associated with EMF and RF
bull To promote a continuous effort of rigorous scientific analysis of the issue by all related academic fields

What is The Sar
bull Specific Absortion Rate- Its the thermal absorption rate of biologic tissues based on weight within a certain time frame Its the cooking rate of human flesh the safety rate for us is very very rare
bull All that this rating assures is that our brains will not be cooked with average user rate
bull The SAR has no assurance of biologic damage prevention since the industry denies its existence
Physical Effects of RF
bull Because no biologic effects are accepted yet
bull A cell phone transmitts 1 to 2 Watts within a frequency range of 824 - 849 MHz (CDMA) 890 - 915 MHz (GSM900) and 1710 ndash 1780 MHz (GSM1800) (Remember 3G and 4G are stonger)
bull 3G transmitts a 2110 ndash 2170 MHz
Physical Effects of RF
bull In the USA SAR cell phone limit is 16WKg that would be reached with an exposition time of 6 minutes per day Since the margin of safety established is between 3 to 4 times the limit An adultrsquos limit should not be more than 18 to 24 minutes per day Are you kidding me
bull How about kids here How about the additional exposure created by wireless sytems

Can We Then Conclude That School WiFi Systems Are safe
bull Most of the European Community doesnt and have postponed their establishment until further evidence show they are safe
bull Why not give the same opportunity to our children bull Why not use wired systems if they are the most
efficient of the two bull Are we not repeating the same mistakes of the past we
did with nicotine and cancer and lead and nerve damage
bull Shouldnrsquot we be studying more in detail the emerging evidence of the epidemiology of brain tumors in children as the exposure years increase
iquestWhat Are WiMAX
bull These are new wireless system technology that promise to increase the geographic extension of
bull So far they have shown effectivity up to 4-5 miles but they are trying to extend its range by increasing the strenght of the signals to 4G and the tower density
What Are WiMAX
bull These is an Executive branch project of the USA that plans to establish a nationwide broadband system to insure national security
bull Although no one can argue with that intention we must then ask What is wrong in doing it by fiber optic based networks
bull Arent wireless systems more prone to security risks and privacy issues
Questions That Arise From This Review
bull If the Wimax is just a more powerful WiFI with a wider range considering the risks previously discussed here Will not then its effects be more significative being the fact that a larger population sample will be exposed for a longer period of time (Are we not talking here about a massive population experiment since no previous data has determined the safety of)
Letrsquos No Monkey Around
Letrsquos Act In Solidarity
Conclusions bull 1 Although the present scientific data fails to clinch the final
link between EMF and disease patterns the growing emerging experimental and clinical evidence has a tendency to favor this connection
bull 2 Itrsquos from these evidence that the need to take mitiganting and preventive measures arises before the final verdict comes trough
bull 3 For these actions to arise from our government we need the support of all individuals professional and community based organizations to lobby towards this effort This effort will be kindled by massive educational efforts at all levels
bull 4 We must specially focus our efforts in the highest risk populations which are pregnant women children and the elderly
Reccomendations
bull Establish an inmediate moratorium on school WiFi Systems and WiMax for extensive populations
bull Review and update the 1966 FCC Communications law in accordance of present evidence Specially the criteria for Tower locations and levels of emissions
bull Create a biologic tissue risk emission rate simialr to the SARS (BSARS=Biologic Specific Absorption Rate)
bull Promote the use of Fiber Optics for the development of the national broadband effort
The Actual Problem
The uncontrolled and progressive growth of modern communication technologies associated with increased industrialization has exploded into one of the biggest crisis of pollution the world has seen during the 20th and 21st century Although unquestionably necessary for the economic progress of all societies its not so clear if the resulting health effects justify the impending epidemic effects that can arise from it

The Scientific-Legal Paradox (They are innocent until proven guilty)
bull 1 Obsolete Scientific Paradigms that stubbornly resist accepting the incoming new scientific evidence Such as
ndash The only damage that occurs by non ionizing radiation in biologic tissues is caused by heating
ndash This paradigm is based by studying the structural alteration of biologic systems without considering the functional effects upon the cell and the organism as a whole
Other Problems
ndash These are the concepts that have guided the regulating agencies like the FCC to establish the levels of exposure limits of the RF in the USA
2 The Exponencial Growth of the sources radiations
The boom in all technology oriented consumer and industrial equipment has exponentially multiplied exposure in record time
Other Problems
3 The lack of clinical human scientific statistically validated studies that could confirm decisively the causal relationship between RFrsquos and specific disease 4 The ldquodrag your feet reactionrdquo of the industry by minimizing the existent epidemiologic experimental and clinical evidence because it fails to meet ideal standards of causal relationship without pausing to consider the effects that will occur later when the evidence finally comes out
Other Problems
5 The very lax regulation of US Agencyrsquos standards of emissions compared to other industrial nations 6 Everyone agrees that we need more studies to evidence the possible health effects yet nobody meanwhile considers any preventive measures Who shall carry this burden The Culprit or the Victim
A Scientific Controversy Arises
bull The Interphone Study that arises from the growing number of epidemiologic studies world wide linking brain tumors with cell phone use forced the industry to promote a study to disprove this evidence
bull This controversial and poorly designed study didnt come out the way they wanted and after several months of both sides claiming victory forced the WHO to assign an international group of experts to study all the available data and recommend
What The WHO Found
bull Please be aware that ip to that point in time no study had been done to analyze the effects of cell phones in children in relation to brain tumors
bull In May 2011 a committee of 71 scientific experts invited by the WHO after reviewing all the previous data concluded that microwaves as cancerigenous as lead chloroform and certain pesticides
bull No preventive measures recommended
What The WHO Found
bull Also concluded (From the Interphone study the industry had concluded otherwise) that a definitive increase in brain tumors was determined scientifically by 40 in the same side of the brain for cell user of at least 30 minutesday
bull We have to question if the number of 30 minutes reflects the real average time of a frequent user
bull iquestWhat would have been the incedence of tumors in users above 30 minutes
bull What would have been the incidence in exposed children at different levels
The Obsolescence of Present Regulations Standards
bull The present law was created in 1996 when the cell phone was still in diapers and wireless systems were not even in use (No 3G or 4G systems yet)
bull The power of big company lobbying is plainly seen under the regulation of Communication tower zoning when out of nowhere a sentence forbids the opposition to a placement of towers for health reasons
The Obsolescence of Present Regulations Standards
bull Yet ironically you may oppose it for reasons that affect property values
bull And the emissions safety standards were those that prevented thermal damages to adjacent persons only
bull Donrsquot you think 18 years is enough time to reconsider a law that regulates a rapidly evolving field
These are The Danger Zones For Cooking Our Brains What would tha new zones be for
Biologic Effects
Other Factors Other Than Distance To Consider For Intensity Of Transmission
bull In view of fact that the transmission intensity is also affected by ndash Call Traffic Density(active users)
ndash of Providers in nearby Tower
ndash And the new 3G and 4G systems are more powerful than those at time making the 1966 law
Results then that users that live within hundreds (100rsquos) meters from the towers will be exposed to intensities 1000 to 10000000 X higher than those farther away
Influence Of The Of Servers On The Tower And Buildings
bull The power intensity of transmission will be directly proportional to the of servers on the tower or building
bull Then we must realize that the safety limits established by the FCC for individual towers will be easily and ldquolegallyrdquo surpassed
bull If we add that new transmissions will be at higher levels when 3G and 4G are fully operational then we can understand the significant increase of exposure that nearby residents will encounter

Can We Then Conclude That School WiFi Systems Are safe
bull Most of the European Community doesnt and have postponed their establishment until further evidence show they are safe
bull Why not give the same opportunity to our children bull Why not use wired systems if they are the most
efficient of the two bull Are we not repeating the same mistakes of the past we
did with nicotine and cancer and lead and nerve damage
bull Shouldnrsquot we be studying more in detail the emerging evidence of the epidemiology of brain tumors in children as the exposure years increase
iquestWhat Are WiMAX
bull These are new wireless system technology that promise to increase the geographic extension of
bull So far they have shown effectivity up to 4-5 miles but they are trying to extend its range by increasing the strenght of the signals to 4G and the tower density
What Are WiMAX
bull These is an Executive branch project of the USA that plans to establish a nationwide broadband system to insure national security
bull Although no one can argue with that intention we must then ask What is wrong in doing it by fiber optic based networks
bull Arent wireless systems more prone to security risks and privacy issues
Questions That Arise From This Review
bull If the Wimax is just a more powerful WiFI with a wider range considering the risks previously discussed here Will not then its effects be more significative being the fact that a larger population sample will be exposed for a longer period of time (Are we not talking here about a massive population experiment since no previous data has determined the safety of)
Letrsquos No Monkey Around
Letrsquos Act In Solidarity
Conclusions bull 1 Although the present scientific data fails to clinch the final
link between EMF and disease patterns the growing emerging experimental and clinical evidence has a tendency to favor this connection
bull 2 Itrsquos from these evidence that the need to take mitiganting and preventive measures arises before the final verdict comes trough
bull 3 For these actions to arise from our government we need the support of all individuals professional and community based organizations to lobby towards this effort This effort will be kindled by massive educational efforts at all levels
bull 4 We must specially focus our efforts in the highest risk populations which are pregnant women children and the elderly
Reccomendations
bull Establish an inmediate moratorium on school WiFi Systems and WiMax for extensive populations
bull Review and update the 1966 FCC Communications law in accordance of present evidence Specially the criteria for Tower locations and levels of emissions
bull Create a biologic tissue risk emission rate simialr to the SARS (BSARS=Biologic Specific Absorption Rate)
bull Promote the use of Fiber Optics for the development of the national broadband effort

The Scientific-Legal Paradox (They are innocent until proven guilty)
bull 1 Obsolete Scientific Paradigms that stubbornly resist accepting the incoming new scientific evidence Such as
ndash The only damage that occurs by non ionizing radiation in biologic tissues is caused by heating
ndash This paradigm is based by studying the structural alteration of biologic systems without considering the functional effects upon the cell and the organism as a whole
Other Problems
ndash These are the concepts that have guided the regulating agencies like the FCC to establish the levels of exposure limits of the RF in the USA
2 The Exponencial Growth of the sources radiations
The boom in all technology oriented consumer and industrial equipment has exponentially multiplied exposure in record time
Other Problems
3 The lack of clinical human scientific statistically validated studies that could confirm decisively the causal relationship between RFrsquos and specific disease 4 The ldquodrag your feet reactionrdquo of the industry by minimizing the existent epidemiologic experimental and clinical evidence because it fails to meet ideal standards of causal relationship without pausing to consider the effects that will occur later when the evidence finally comes out
Other Problems
5 The very lax regulation of US Agencyrsquos standards of emissions compared to other industrial nations 6 Everyone agrees that we need more studies to evidence the possible health effects yet nobody meanwhile considers any preventive measures Who shall carry this burden The Culprit or the Victim
A Scientific Controversy Arises
bull The Interphone Study that arises from the growing number of epidemiologic studies world wide linking brain tumors with cell phone use forced the industry to promote a study to disprove this evidence
bull This controversial and poorly designed study didnt come out the way they wanted and after several months of both sides claiming victory forced the WHO to assign an international group of experts to study all the available data and recommend
What The WHO Found
bull Please be aware that ip to that point in time no study had been done to analyze the effects of cell phones in children in relation to brain tumors
bull In May 2011 a committee of 71 scientific experts invited by the WHO after reviewing all the previous data concluded that microwaves as cancerigenous as lead chloroform and certain pesticides
bull No preventive measures recommended
What The WHO Found
bull Also concluded (From the Interphone study the industry had concluded otherwise) that a definitive increase in brain tumors was determined scientifically by 40 in the same side of the brain for cell user of at least 30 minutesday
bull We have to question if the number of 30 minutes reflects the real average time of a frequent user
bull iquestWhat would have been the incedence of tumors in users above 30 minutes
bull What would have been the incidence in exposed children at different levels
The Obsolescence of Present Regulations Standards
bull The present law was created in 1996 when the cell phone was still in diapers and wireless systems were not even in use (No 3G or 4G systems yet)
bull The power of big company lobbying is plainly seen under the regulation of Communication tower zoning when out of nowhere a sentence forbids the opposition to a placement of towers for health reasons
The Obsolescence of Present Regulations Standards
bull Yet ironically you may oppose it for reasons that affect property values
bull And the emissions safety standards were those that prevented thermal damages to adjacent persons only
bull Donrsquot you think 18 years is enough time to reconsider a law that regulates a rapidly evolving field
These are The Danger Zones For Cooking Our Brains What would tha new zones be for
Biologic Effects
Other Factors Other Than Distance To Consider For Intensity Of Transmission
bull In view of fact that the transmission intensity is also affected by ndash Call Traffic Density(active users)
ndash of Providers in nearby Tower
ndash And the new 3G and 4G systems are more powerful than those at time making the 1966 law
Results then that users that live within hundreds (100rsquos) meters from the towers will be exposed to intensities 1000 to 10000000 X higher than those farther away
Influence Of The Of Servers On The Tower And Buildings
bull The power intensity of transmission will be directly proportional to the of servers on the tower or building
bull Then we must realize that the safety limits established by the FCC for individual towers will be easily and ldquolegallyrdquo surpassed
bull If we add that new transmissions will be at higher levels when 3G and 4G are fully operational then we can understand the significant increase of exposure that nearby residents will encounter

What is The Sar
bull Specific Absortion Rate- Its the thermal absorption rate of biologic tissues based on weight within a certain time frame Its the cooking rate of human flesh the safety rate for us is very very rare
bull All that this rating assures is that our brains will not be cooked with average user rate
bull The SAR has no assurance of biologic damage prevention since the industry denies its existence
Physical Effects of RF
bull Because no biologic effects are accepted yet
bull A cell phone transmitts 1 to 2 Watts within a frequency range of 824 - 849 MHz (CDMA) 890 - 915 MHz (GSM900) and 1710 ndash 1780 MHz (GSM1800) (Remember 3G and 4G are stonger)
bull 3G transmitts a 2110 ndash 2170 MHz
Physical Effects of RF
bull In the USA SAR cell phone limit is 16WKg that would be reached with an exposition time of 6 minutes per day Since the margin of safety established is between 3 to 4 times the limit An adultrsquos limit should not be more than 18 to 24 minutes per day Are you kidding me
bull How about kids here How about the additional exposure created by wireless sytems

Can We Then Conclude That School WiFi Systems Are safe
bull Most of the European Community doesnt and have postponed their establishment until further evidence show they are safe
bull Why not give the same opportunity to our children bull Why not use wired systems if they are the most
efficient of the two bull Are we not repeating the same mistakes of the past we
did with nicotine and cancer and lead and nerve damage
bull Shouldnrsquot we be studying more in detail the emerging evidence of the epidemiology of brain tumors in children as the exposure years increase
iquestWhat Are WiMAX
bull These are new wireless system technology that promise to increase the geographic extension of
bull So far they have shown effectivity up to 4-5 miles but they are trying to extend its range by increasing the strenght of the signals to 4G and the tower density
What Are WiMAX
bull These is an Executive branch project of the USA that plans to establish a nationwide broadband system to insure national security
bull Although no one can argue with that intention we must then ask What is wrong in doing it by fiber optic based networks
bull Arent wireless systems more prone to security risks and privacy issues
Questions That Arise From This Review
bull If the Wimax is just a more powerful WiFI with a wider range considering the risks previously discussed here Will not then its effects be more significative being the fact that a larger population sample will be exposed for a longer period of time (Are we not talking here about a massive population experiment since no previous data has determined the safety of)
Letrsquos No Monkey Around
Letrsquos Act In Solidarity
Conclusions bull 1 Although the present scientific data fails to clinch the final
link between EMF and disease patterns the growing emerging experimental and clinical evidence has a tendency to favor this connection
bull 2 Itrsquos from these evidence that the need to take mitiganting and preventive measures arises before the final verdict comes trough
bull 3 For these actions to arise from our government we need the support of all individuals professional and community based organizations to lobby towards this effort This effort will be kindled by massive educational efforts at all levels
bull 4 We must specially focus our efforts in the highest risk populations which are pregnant women children and the elderly
Reccomendations
bull Establish an inmediate moratorium on school WiFi Systems and WiMax for extensive populations
bull Review and update the 1966 FCC Communications law in accordance of present evidence Specially the criteria for Tower locations and levels of emissions
bull Create a biologic tissue risk emission rate simialr to the SARS (BSARS=Biologic Specific Absorption Rate)
bull Promote the use of Fiber Optics for the development of the national broadband effort

The Scientific-Legal Paradox (They are innocent until proven guilty)
bull 1 Obsolete Scientific Paradigms that stubbornly resist accepting the incoming new scientific evidence Such as
ndash The only damage that occurs by non ionizing radiation in biologic tissues is caused by heating
ndash This paradigm is based by studying the structural alteration of biologic systems without considering the functional effects upon the cell and the organism as a whole
Other Problems
ndash These are the concepts that have guided the regulating agencies like the FCC to establish the levels of exposure limits of the RF in the USA
2 The Exponencial Growth of the sources radiations
The boom in all technology oriented consumer and industrial equipment has exponentially multiplied exposure in record time
Other Problems
3 The lack of clinical human scientific statistically validated studies that could confirm decisively the causal relationship between RFrsquos and specific disease 4 The ldquodrag your feet reactionrdquo of the industry by minimizing the existent epidemiologic experimental and clinical evidence because it fails to meet ideal standards of causal relationship without pausing to consider the effects that will occur later when the evidence finally comes out
Other Problems
5 The very lax regulation of US Agencyrsquos standards of emissions compared to other industrial nations 6 Everyone agrees that we need more studies to evidence the possible health effects yet nobody meanwhile considers any preventive measures Who shall carry this burden The Culprit or the Victim
A Scientific Controversy Arises
bull The Interphone Study that arises from the growing number of epidemiologic studies world wide linking brain tumors with cell phone use forced the industry to promote a study to disprove this evidence
bull This controversial and poorly designed study didnt come out the way they wanted and after several months of both sides claiming victory forced the WHO to assign an international group of experts to study all the available data and recommend
What The WHO Found
bull Please be aware that ip to that point in time no study had been done to analyze the effects of cell phones in children in relation to brain tumors
bull In May 2011 a committee of 71 scientific experts invited by the WHO after reviewing all the previous data concluded that microwaves as cancerigenous as lead chloroform and certain pesticides
bull No preventive measures recommended
What The WHO Found
bull Also concluded (From the Interphone study the industry had concluded otherwise) that a definitive increase in brain tumors was determined scientifically by 40 in the same side of the brain for cell user of at least 30 minutesday
bull We have to question if the number of 30 minutes reflects the real average time of a frequent user
bull iquestWhat would have been the incedence of tumors in users above 30 minutes
bull What would have been the incidence in exposed children at different levels
The Obsolescence of Present Regulations Standards
bull The present law was created in 1996 when the cell phone was still in diapers and wireless systems were not even in use (No 3G or 4G systems yet)
bull The power of big company lobbying is plainly seen under the regulation of Communication tower zoning when out of nowhere a sentence forbids the opposition to a placement of towers for health reasons
The Obsolescence of Present Regulations Standards
bull Yet ironically you may oppose it for reasons that affect property values
bull And the emissions safety standards were those that prevented thermal damages to adjacent persons only
bull Donrsquot you think 18 years is enough time to reconsider a law that regulates a rapidly evolving field
These are The Danger Zones For Cooking Our Brains What would tha new zones be for
Biologic Effects
Other Factors Other Than Distance To Consider For Intensity Of Transmission
bull In view of fact that the transmission intensity is also affected by ndash Call Traffic Density(active users)
ndash of Providers in nearby Tower
ndash And the new 3G and 4G systems are more powerful than those at time making the 1966 law
Results then that users that live within hundreds (100rsquos) meters from the towers will be exposed to intensities 1000 to 10000000 X higher than those farther away
Influence Of The Of Servers On The Tower And Buildings
bull The power intensity of transmission will be directly proportional to the of servers on the tower or building
bull Then we must realize that the safety limits established by the FCC for individual towers will be easily and ldquolegallyrdquo surpassed
bull If we add that new transmissions will be at higher levels when 3G and 4G are fully operational then we can understand the significant increase of exposure that nearby residents will encounter

What is The Sar
bull Specific Absortion Rate- Its the thermal absorption rate of biologic tissues based on weight within a certain time frame Its the cooking rate of human flesh the safety rate for us is very very rare
bull All that this rating assures is that our brains will not be cooked with average user rate
bull The SAR has no assurance of biologic damage prevention since the industry denies its existence
Physical Effects of RF
bull Because no biologic effects are accepted yet
bull A cell phone transmitts 1 to 2 Watts within a frequency range of 824 - 849 MHz (CDMA) 890 - 915 MHz (GSM900) and 1710 ndash 1780 MHz (GSM1800) (Remember 3G and 4G are stonger)
bull 3G transmitts a 2110 ndash 2170 MHz
Physical Effects of RF
bull In the USA SAR cell phone limit is 16WKg that would be reached with an exposition time of 6 minutes per day Since the margin of safety established is between 3 to 4 times the limit An adultrsquos limit should not be more than 18 to 24 minutes per day Are you kidding me
bull How about kids here How about the additional exposure created by wireless sytems

bull If the Wimax is just a more powerful WiFI with a wider range considering the risks previously discussed here Will not then its effects be more significative being the fact that a larger population sample will be exposed for a longer period of time (Are we not talking here about a massive population experiment since no previous data has determined the safety of)
Letrsquos No Monkey Around
Letrsquos Act In Solidarity
Conclusions bull 1 Although the present scientific data fails to clinch the final
link between EMF and disease patterns the growing emerging experimental and clinical evidence has a tendency to favor this connection
bull 2 Itrsquos from these evidence that the need to take mitiganting and preventive measures arises before the final verdict comes trough
bull 3 For these actions to arise from our government we need the support of all individuals professional and community based organizations to lobby towards this effort This effort will be kindled by massive educational efforts at all levels
bull 4 We must specially focus our efforts in the highest risk populations which are pregnant women children and the elderly
Reccomendations
bull Establish an inmediate moratorium on school WiFi Systems and WiMax for extensive populations
bull Review and update the 1966 FCC Communications law in accordance of present evidence Specially the criteria for Tower locations and levels of emissions
bull Create a biologic tissue risk emission rate simialr to the SARS (BSARS=Biologic Specific Absorption Rate)

The Scientific-Legal Paradox (They are innocent until proven guilty)
bull 1 Obsolete Scientific Paradigms that stubbornly resist accepting the incoming new scientific evidence Such as
ndash The only damage that occurs by non ionizing radiation in biologic tissues is caused by heating
ndash This paradigm is based by studying the structural alteration of biologic systems without considering the functional effects upon the cell and the organism as a whole
Other Problems
ndash These are the concepts that have guided the regulating agencies like the FCC to establish the levels of exposure limits of the RF in the USA
2 The Exponencial Growth of the sources radiations
The boom in all technology oriented consumer and industrial equipment has exponentially multiplied exposure in record time
Other Problems
3 The lack of clinical human scientific statistically validated studies that could confirm decisively the causal relationship between RFrsquos and specific disease 4 The ldquodrag your feet reactionrdquo of the industry by minimizing the existent epidemiologic experimental and clinical evidence because it fails to meet ideal standards of causal relationship without pausing to consider the effects that will occur later when the evidence finally comes out
Other Problems
5 The very lax regulation of US Agencyrsquos standards of emissions compared to other industrial nations 6 Everyone agrees that we need more studies to evidence the possible health effects yet nobody meanwhile considers any preventive measures Who shall carry this burden The Culprit or the Victim
A Scientific Controversy Arises
bull The Interphone Study that arises from the growing number of epidemiologic studies world wide linking brain tumors with cell phone use forced the industry to promote a study to disprove this evidence
bull This controversial and poorly designed study didnt come out the way they wanted and after several months of both sides claiming victory forced the WHO to assign an international group of experts to study all the available data and recommend
What The WHO Found
bull Please be aware that ip to that point in time no study had been done to analyze the effects of cell phones in children in relation to brain tumors
bull In May 2011 a committee of 71 scientific experts invited by the WHO after reviewing all the previous data concluded that microwaves as cancerigenous as lead chloroform and certain pesticides
bull No preventive measures recommended
What The WHO Found
bull Also concluded (From the Interphone study the industry had concluded otherwise) that a definitive increase in brain tumors was determined scientifically by 40 in the same side of the brain for cell user of at least 30 minutesday
bull We have to question if the number of 30 minutes reflects the real average time of a frequent user
bull iquestWhat would have been the incedence of tumors in users above 30 minutes
bull What would have been the incidence in exposed children at different levels
The Obsolescence of Present Regulations Standards
bull The present law was created in 1996 when the cell phone was still in diapers and wireless systems were not even in use (No 3G or 4G systems yet)
bull The power of big company lobbying is plainly seen under the regulation of Communication tower zoning when out of nowhere a sentence forbids the opposition to a placement of towers for health reasons
The Obsolescence of Present Regulations Standards
bull Yet ironically you may oppose it for reasons that affect property values
bull And the emissions safety standards were those that prevented thermal damages to adjacent persons only

ndash And the new 3G and 4G systems are more powerful than those at time making the 1966 law
Results then that users that live within hundreds (100rsquos) meters from the towers will be exposed to intensities 1000 to 10000000 X higher than those farther away
Influence Of The Of Servers On The Tower And Buildings
bull The power intensity of transmission will be directly proportional to the of servers on the tower or building
bull Then we must realize that the safety limits established by the FCC for individual towers will be easily and ldquolegallyrdquo surpassed
bull If we add that new transmissions will be at higher levels when 3G and 4G are fully operational then we can understand the significant increase of exposure that nearby residents will encounter

What is The Sar
bull Specific Absortion Rate- Its the thermal absorption rate of biologic tissues based on weight within a certain time frame Its the cooking rate of human flesh the safety rate for us is very very rare
bull All that this rating assures is that our brains will not be cooked with average user rate
bull The SAR has no assurance of biologic damage prevention since the industry denies its existence
Physical Effects of RF
bull Because no biologic effects are accepted yet
bull A cell phone transmitts 1 to 2 Watts within a frequency range of 824 - 849 MHz (CDMA) 890 - 915 MHz (GSM900) and 1710 ndash 1780 MHz (GSM1800) (Remember 3G and 4G are stonger)
bull 3G transmitts a 2110 ndash 2170 MHz
Physical Effects of RF
bull In the USA SAR cell phone limit is 16WKg that would be reached with an exposition time of 6 minutes per day Since the margin of safety established is between 3 to 4 times the limit An adultrsquos limit should not be more than 18 to 24 minutes per day Are you kidding me
bull How about kids here How about the additional exposure created by wireless sytems

What is The Sar
bull Specific Absortion Rate- Its the thermal absorption rate of biologic tissues based on weight within a certain time frame Its the cooking rate of human flesh the safety rate for us is very very rare
bull All that this rating assures is that our brains will not be cooked with average user rate
bull The SAR has no assurance of biologic damage prevention since the industry denies its existence
Physical Effects of RF
bull Because no biologic effects are accepted yet
bull A cell phone transmitts 1 to 2 Watts within a frequency range of 824 - 849 MHz (CDMA) 890 - 915 MHz (GSM900) and 1710 ndash 1780 MHz (GSM1800) (Remember 3G and 4G are stonger)
bull 3G transmitts a 2110 ndash 2170 MHz
Physical Effects of RF
bull In the USA SAR cell phone limit is 16WKg that would be reached with an exposition time of 6 minutes per day Since the margin of safety established is between 3 to 4 times the limit An adultrsquos limit should not be more than 18 to 24 minutes per day Are you kidding me
bull How about kids here How about the additional exposure created by wireless sytems

Can We Then Conclude That School WiFi Systems Are safe
bull Most of the European Community doesnt and have postponed their establishment until further evidence show they are safe
bull Why not give the same opportunity to our children bull Why not use wired systems if they are the most
efficient of the two bull Are we not repeating the same mistakes of the past we
did with nicotine and cancer and lead and nerve damage
bull Shouldnrsquot we be studying more in detail the emerging evidence of the epidemiology of brain tumors in children as the exposure years increase
iquestWhat Are WiMAX
bull These are new wireless system technology that promise to increase the geographic extension of
bull So far they have shown effectivity up to 4-5 miles but they are trying to extend its range by increasing the strenght of the signals to 4G and the tower density
What Are WiMAX
bull These is an Executive branch project of the USA that plans to establish a nationwide broadband system to insure national security
bull Although no one can argue with that intention we must then ask What is wrong in doing it by fiber optic based networks
bull Arent wireless systems more prone to security risks and privacy issues
Questions That Arise From This Review
bull If the Wimax is just a more powerful WiFI with a wider range considering the risks previously discussed here Will not then its effects be more significative being the fact that a larger population sample will be exposed for a longer period of time (Are we not talking here about a massive population experiment since no previous data has determined the safety of)
Letrsquos No Monkey Around
Letrsquos Act In Solidarity
Conclusions bull 1 Although the present scientific data fails to clinch the final
link between EMF and disease patterns the growing emerging experimental and clinical evidence has a tendency to favor this connection
bull 2 Itrsquos from these evidence that the need to take mitiganting and preventive measures arises before the final verdict comes trough
bull 3 For these actions to arise from our government we need the support of all individuals professional and community based organizations to lobby towards this effort This effort will be kindled by massive educational efforts at all levels
bull 4 We must specially focus our efforts in the highest risk populations which are pregnant women children and the elderly
Reccomendations
bull Establish an inmediate moratorium on school WiFi Systems and WiMax for extensive populations
bull Review and update the 1966 FCC Communications law in accordance of present evidence Specially the criteria for Tower locations and levels of emissions
bull Create a biologic tissue risk emission rate simialr to the SARS (BSARS=Biologic Specific Absorption Rate)
bull Promote the use of Fiber Optics for the development of the national broadband effort

The Scientific-Legal Paradox (They are innocent until proven guilty)
bull 1 Obsolete Scientific Paradigms that stubbornly resist accepting the incoming new scientific evidence Such as
ndash The only damage that occurs by non ionizing radiation in biologic tissues is caused by heating
ndash This paradigm is based by studying the structural alteration of biologic systems without considering the functional effects upon the cell and the organism as a whole
Other Problems
ndash These are the concepts that have guided the regulating agencies like the FCC to establish the levels of exposure limits of the RF in the USA
2 The Exponencial Growth of the sources radiations
The boom in all technology oriented consumer and industrial equipment has exponentially multiplied exposure in record time
Other Problems
3 The lack of clinical human scientific statistically validated studies that could confirm decisively the causal relationship between RFrsquos and specific disease 4 The ldquodrag your feet reactionrdquo of the industry by minimizing the existent epidemiologic experimental and clinical evidence because it fails to meet ideal standards of causal relationship without pausing to consider the effects that will occur later when the evidence finally comes out
Other Problems
5 The very lax regulation of US Agencyrsquos standards of emissions compared to other industrial nations 6 Everyone agrees that we need more studies to evidence the possible health effects yet nobody meanwhile considers any preventive measures Who shall carry this burden The Culprit or the Victim
A Scientific Controversy Arises
bull The Interphone Study that arises from the growing number of epidemiologic studies world wide linking brain tumors with cell phone use forced the industry to promote a study to disprove this evidence
bull This controversial and poorly designed study didnt come out the way they wanted and after several months of both sides claiming victory forced the WHO to assign an international group of experts to study all the available data and recommend
What The WHO Found
bull Please be aware that ip to that point in time no study had been done to analyze the effects of cell phones in children in relation to brain tumors
bull In May 2011 a committee of 71 scientific experts invited by the WHO after reviewing all the previous data concluded that microwaves as cancerigenous as lead chloroform and certain pesticides
bull No preventive measures recommended
What The WHO Found
bull Also concluded (From the Interphone study the industry had concluded otherwise) that a definitive increase in brain tumors was determined scientifically by 40 in the same side of the brain for cell user of at least 30 minutesday
bull We have to question if the number of 30 minutes reflects the real average time of a frequent user
bull iquestWhat would have been the incedence of tumors in users above 30 minutes
bull What would have been the incidence in exposed children at different levels
The Obsolescence of Present Regulations Standards
bull The present law was created in 1996 when the cell phone was still in diapers and wireless systems were not even in use (No 3G or 4G systems yet)
bull The power of big company lobbying is plainly seen under the regulation of Communication tower zoning when out of nowhere a sentence forbids the opposition to a placement of towers for health reasons
The Obsolescence of Present Regulations Standards
bull Yet ironically you may oppose it for reasons that affect property values
bull And the emissions safety standards were those that prevented thermal damages to adjacent persons only
bull Donrsquot you think 18 years is enough time to reconsider a law that regulates a rapidly evolving field
These are The Danger Zones For Cooking Our Brains What would tha new zones be for
Biologic Effects
Other Factors Other Than Distance To Consider For Intensity Of Transmission
bull In view of fact that the transmission intensity is also affected by ndash Call Traffic Density(active users)
ndash of Providers in nearby Tower
ndash And the new 3G and 4G systems are more powerful than those at time making the 1966 law
Results then that users that live within hundreds (100rsquos) meters from the towers will be exposed to intensities 1000 to 10000000 X higher than those farther away
Influence Of The Of Servers On The Tower And Buildings
bull The power intensity of transmission will be directly proportional to the of servers on the tower or building
bull Then we must realize that the safety limits established by the FCC for individual towers will be easily and ldquolegallyrdquo surpassed
bull If we add that new transmissions will be at higher levels when 3G and 4G are fully operational then we can understand the significant increase of exposure that nearby residents will encounter

Can We Then Conclude That School WiFi Systems Are safe
bull Most of the European Community doesnt and have postponed their establishment until further evidence show they are safe
bull Why not give the same opportunity to our children bull Why not use wired systems if they are the most
efficient of the two bull Are we not repeating the same mistakes of the past we
did with nicotine and cancer and lead and nerve damage
bull Shouldnrsquot we be studying more in detail the emerging evidence of the epidemiology of brain tumors in children as the exposure years increase
iquestWhat Are WiMAX
bull These are new wireless system technology that promise to increase the geographic extension of
bull So far they have shown effectivity up to 4-5 miles but they are trying to extend its range by increasing the strenght of the signals to 4G and the tower density
What Are WiMAX
bull These is an Executive branch project of the USA that plans to establish a nationwide broadband system to insure national security
bull Although no one can argue with that intention we must then ask What is wrong in doing it by fiber optic based networks
bull Arent wireless systems more prone to security risks and privacy issues
Questions That Arise From This Review
bull If the Wimax is just a more powerful WiFI with a wider range considering the risks previously discussed here Will not then its effects be more significative being the fact that a larger population sample will be exposed for a longer period of time (Are we not talking here about a massive population experiment since no previous data has determined the safety of)
Letrsquos No Monkey Around
Letrsquos Act In Solidarity
Conclusions bull 1 Although the present scientific data fails to clinch the final
link between EMF and disease patterns the growing emerging experimental and clinical evidence has a tendency to favor this connection
bull 2 Itrsquos from these evidence that the need to take mitiganting and preventive measures arises before the final verdict comes trough
bull 3 For these actions to arise from our government we need the support of all individuals professional and community based organizations to lobby towards this effort This effort will be kindled by massive educational efforts at all levels
bull 4 We must specially focus our efforts in the highest risk populations which are pregnant women children and the elderly
Reccomendations
bull Establish an inmediate moratorium on school WiFi Systems and WiMax for extensive populations
bull Review and update the 1966 FCC Communications law in accordance of present evidence Specially the criteria for Tower locations and levels of emissions
bull Create a biologic tissue risk emission rate simialr to the SARS (BSARS=Biologic Specific Absorption Rate)
bull Promote the use of Fiber Optics for the development of the national broadband effort

The Scientific-Legal Paradox (They are innocent until proven guilty)
bull 1 Obsolete Scientific Paradigms that stubbornly resist accepting the incoming new scientific evidence Such as
ndash The only damage that occurs by non ionizing radiation in biologic tissues is caused by heating
ndash This paradigm is based by studying the structural alteration of biologic systems without considering the functional effects upon the cell and the organism as a whole
Other Problems
ndash These are the concepts that have guided the regulating agencies like the FCC to establish the levels of exposure limits of the RF in the USA
2 The Exponencial Growth of the sources radiations
The boom in all technology oriented consumer and industrial equipment has exponentially multiplied exposure in record time
Other Problems
3 The lack of clinical human scientific statistically validated studies that could confirm decisively the causal relationship between RFrsquos and specific disease 4 The ldquodrag your feet reactionrdquo of the industry by minimizing the existent epidemiologic experimental and clinical evidence because it fails to meet ideal standards of causal relationship without pausing to consider the effects that will occur later when the evidence finally comes out
Other Problems
5 The very lax regulation of US Agencyrsquos standards of emissions compared to other industrial nations 6 Everyone agrees that we need more studies to evidence the possible health effects yet nobody meanwhile considers any preventive measures Who shall carry this burden The Culprit or the Victim
A Scientific Controversy Arises
bull The Interphone Study that arises from the growing number of epidemiologic studies world wide linking brain tumors with cell phone use forced the industry to promote a study to disprove this evidence
bull This controversial and poorly designed study didnt come out the way they wanted and after several months of both sides claiming victory forced the WHO to assign an international group of experts to study all the available data and recommend
What The WHO Found
bull Please be aware that ip to that point in time no study had been done to analyze the effects of cell phones in children in relation to brain tumors
bull In May 2011 a committee of 71 scientific experts invited by the WHO after reviewing all the previous data concluded that microwaves as cancerigenous as lead chloroform and certain pesticides
bull No preventive measures recommended
What The WHO Found
bull Also concluded (From the Interphone study the industry had concluded otherwise) that a definitive increase in brain tumors was determined scientifically by 40 in the same side of the brain for cell user of at least 30 minutesday
bull We have to question if the number of 30 minutes reflects the real average time of a frequent user
bull iquestWhat would have been the incedence of tumors in users above 30 minutes
bull What would have been the incidence in exposed children at different levels
The Obsolescence of Present Regulations Standards
bull The present law was created in 1996 when the cell phone was still in diapers and wireless systems were not even in use (No 3G or 4G systems yet)
bull The power of big company lobbying is plainly seen under the regulation of Communication tower zoning when out of nowhere a sentence forbids the opposition to a placement of towers for health reasons
The Obsolescence of Present Regulations Standards
bull Yet ironically you may oppose it for reasons that affect property values
bull And the emissions safety standards were those that prevented thermal damages to adjacent persons only
bull Donrsquot you think 18 years is enough time to reconsider a law that regulates a rapidly evolving field
These are The Danger Zones For Cooking Our Brains What would tha new zones be for
Biologic Effects
Other Factors Other Than Distance To Consider For Intensity Of Transmission
bull In view of fact that the transmission intensity is also affected by ndash Call Traffic Density(active users)
ndash of Providers in nearby Tower
ndash And the new 3G and 4G systems are more powerful than those at time making the 1966 law
Results then that users that live within hundreds (100rsquos) meters from the towers will be exposed to intensities 1000 to 10000000 X higher than those farther away
Influence Of The Of Servers On The Tower And Buildings
bull The power intensity of transmission will be directly proportional to the of servers on the tower or building
bull Then we must realize that the safety limits established by the FCC for individual towers will be easily and ldquolegallyrdquo surpassed
bull If we add that new transmissions will be at higher levels when 3G and 4G are fully operational then we can understand the significant increase of exposure that nearby residents will encounter

What is The Sar
bull Specific Absortion Rate- Its the thermal absorption rate of biologic tissues based on weight within a certain time frame Its the cooking rate of human flesh the safety rate for us is very very rare
bull All that this rating assures is that our brains will not be cooked with average user rate
bull The SAR has no assurance of biologic damage prevention since the industry denies its existence
Physical Effects of RF
bull Because no biologic effects are accepted yet
bull A cell phone transmitts 1 to 2 Watts within a frequency range of 824 - 849 MHz (CDMA) 890 - 915 MHz (GSM900) and 1710 ndash 1780 MHz (GSM1800) (Remember 3G and 4G are stonger)
bull 3G transmitts a 2110 ndash 2170 MHz
Physical Effects of RF
bull In the USA SAR cell phone limit is 16WKg that would be reached with an exposition time of 6 minutes per day Since the margin of safety established is between 3 to 4 times the limit An adultrsquos limit should not be more than 18 to 24 minutes per day Are you kidding me
bull How about kids here How about the additional exposure created by wireless sytems

link between EMF and disease patterns the growing emerging experimental and clinical evidence has a tendency to favor this connection
bull 2 Itrsquos from these evidence that the need to take mitiganting and preventive measures arises before the final verdict comes trough
bull 3 For these actions to arise from our government we need the support of all individuals professional and community based organizations to lobby towards this effort This effort will be kindled by massive educational efforts at all levels
bull 4 We must specially focus our efforts in the highest risk populations which are pregnant women children and the elderly
Reccomendations
bull Establish an inmediate moratorium on school WiFi Systems and WiMax for extensive populations
bull Review and update the 1966 FCC Communications law in accordance of present evidence Specially the criteria for Tower locations and levels of emissions
bull Create a biologic tissue risk emission rate simialr to the SARS (BSARS=Biologic Specific Absorption Rate)
bull Promote the use of Fiber Optics for the development of the national broadband effort
The Scientific-Legal Paradox (They are innocent until proven guilty)
bull 1 Obsolete Scientific Paradigms that stubbornly resist accepting the incoming new scientific evidence Such as
ndash The only damage that occurs by non ionizing radiation in biologic tissues is caused by heating
ndash This paradigm is based by studying the structural alteration of biologic systems without considering the functional effects upon the cell and the organism as a whole
Other Problems
ndash These are the concepts that have guided the regulating agencies like the FCC to establish the levels of exposure limits of the RF in the USA
2 The Exponencial Growth of the sources radiations
The boom in all technology oriented consumer and industrial equipment has exponentially multiplied exposure in record time
Other Problems
3 The lack of clinical human scientific statistically validated studies that could confirm decisively the causal relationship between RFrsquos and specific disease 4 The ldquodrag your feet reactionrdquo of the industry by minimizing the existent epidemiologic experimental and clinical evidence because it fails to meet ideal standards of causal relationship without pausing to consider the effects that will occur later when the evidence finally comes out
Other Problems
5 The very lax regulation of US Agencyrsquos standards of emissions compared to other industrial nations 6 Everyone agrees that we need more studies to evidence the possible health effects yet nobody meanwhile considers any preventive measures Who shall carry this burden The Culprit or the Victim
A Scientific Controversy Arises
bull The Interphone Study that arises from the growing number of epidemiologic studies world wide linking brain tumors with cell phone use forced the industry to promote a study to disprove this evidence
bull This controversial and poorly designed study didnt come out the way they wanted and after several months of both sides claiming victory forced the WHO to assign an international group of experts to study all the available data and recommend
What The WHO Found
bull Please be aware that ip to that point in time no study had been done to analyze the effects of cell phones in children in relation to brain tumors
bull In May 2011 a committee of 71 scientific experts invited by the WHO after reviewing all the previous data concluded that microwaves as cancerigenous as lead chloroform and certain pesticides
bull No preventive measures recommended
What The WHO Found
bull Also concluded (From the Interphone study the industry had concluded otherwise) that a definitive increase in brain tumors was determined scientifically by 40 in the same side of the brain for cell user of at least 30 minutesday
bull We have to question if the number of 30 minutes reflects the real average time of a frequent user
bull iquestWhat would have been the incedence of tumors in users above 30 minutes
bull What would have been the incidence in exposed children at different levels
The Obsolescence of Present Regulations Standards
bull The present law was created in 1996 when the cell phone was still in diapers and wireless systems were not even in use (No 3G or 4G systems yet)
bull The power of big company lobbying is plainly seen under the regulation of Communication tower zoning when out of nowhere a sentence forbids the opposition to a placement of towers for health reasons
The Obsolescence of Present Regulations Standards
bull Yet ironically you may oppose it for reasons that affect property values
bull And the emissions safety standards were those that prevented thermal damages to adjacent persons only
bull Donrsquot you think 18 years is enough time to reconsider a law that regulates a rapidly evolving field
These are The Danger Zones For Cooking Our Brains What would tha new zones be for
Biologic Effects
Other Factors Other Than Distance To Consider For Intensity Of Transmission
bull In view of fact that the transmission intensity is also affected by ndash Call Traffic Density(active users)
ndash of Providers in nearby Tower
ndash And the new 3G and 4G systems are more powerful than those at time making the 1966 law
Results then that users that live within hundreds (100rsquos) meters from the towers will be exposed to intensities 1000 to 10000000 X higher than those farther away
Influence Of The Of Servers On The Tower And Buildings
bull The power intensity of transmission will be directly proportional to the of servers on the tower or building
bull Then we must realize that the safety limits established by the FCC for individual towers will be easily and ldquolegallyrdquo surpassed
bull If we add that new transmissions will be at higher levels when 3G and 4G are fully operational then we can understand the significant increase of exposure that nearby residents will encounter

What is The Sar
bull Specific Absortion Rate- Its the thermal absorption rate of biologic tissues based on weight within a certain time frame Its the cooking rate of human flesh the safety rate for us is very very rare
bull All that this rating assures is that our brains will not be cooked with average user rate
bull The SAR has no assurance of biologic damage prevention since the industry denies its existence
Physical Effects of RF
bull Because no biologic effects are accepted yet
bull A cell phone transmitts 1 to 2 Watts within a frequency range of 824 - 849 MHz (CDMA) 890 - 915 MHz (GSM900) and 1710 ndash 1780 MHz (GSM1800) (Remember 3G and 4G are stonger)
bull 3G transmitts a 2110 ndash 2170 MHz
Physical Effects of RF
bull In the USA SAR cell phone limit is 16WKg that would be reached with an exposition time of 6 minutes per day Since the margin of safety established is between 3 to 4 times the limit An adultrsquos limit should not be more than 18 to 24 minutes per day Are you kidding me
bull How about kids here How about the additional exposure created by wireless sytems

Can We Then Conclude That School WiFi Systems Are safe
bull Most of the European Community doesnt and have postponed their establishment until further evidence show they are safe
bull Why not give the same opportunity to our children bull Why not use wired systems if they are the most
efficient of the two bull Are we not repeating the same mistakes of the past we
did with nicotine and cancer and lead and nerve damage
bull Shouldnrsquot we be studying more in detail the emerging evidence of the epidemiology of brain tumors in children as the exposure years increase
iquestWhat Are WiMAX
bull These are new wireless system technology that promise to increase the geographic extension of
bull So far they have shown effectivity up to 4-5 miles but they are trying to extend its range by increasing the strenght of the signals to 4G and the tower density
What Are WiMAX
bull These is an Executive branch project of the USA that plans to establish a nationwide broadband system to insure national security
bull Although no one can argue with that intention we must then ask What is wrong in doing it by fiber optic based networks
bull Arent wireless systems more prone to security risks and privacy issues
Questions That Arise From This Review
bull If the Wimax is just a more powerful WiFI with a wider range considering the risks previously discussed here Will not then its effects be more significative being the fact that a larger population sample will be exposed for a longer period of time (Are we not talking here about a massive population experiment since no previous data has determined the safety of)
Letrsquos No Monkey Around
Letrsquos Act In Solidarity
Conclusions bull 1 Although the present scientific data fails to clinch the final
link between EMF and disease patterns the growing emerging experimental and clinical evidence has a tendency to favor this connection
bull 2 Itrsquos from these evidence that the need to take mitiganting and preventive measures arises before the final verdict comes trough
bull 3 For these actions to arise from our government we need the support of all individuals professional and community based organizations to lobby towards this effort This effort will be kindled by massive educational efforts at all levels
bull 4 We must specially focus our efforts in the highest risk populations which are pregnant women children and the elderly
Reccomendations
bull Establish an inmediate moratorium on school WiFi Systems and WiMax for extensive populations
bull Review and update the 1966 FCC Communications law in accordance of present evidence Specially the criteria for Tower locations and levels of emissions
bull Create a biologic tissue risk emission rate simialr to the SARS (BSARS=Biologic Specific Absorption Rate)
bull Promote the use of Fiber Optics for the development of the national broadband effort
Other Problems
3 The lack of clinical human scientific statistically validated studies that could confirm decisively the causal relationship between RFrsquos and specific disease 4 The ldquodrag your feet reactionrdquo of the industry by minimizing the existent epidemiologic experimental and clinical evidence because it fails to meet ideal standards of causal relationship without pausing to consider the effects that will occur later when the evidence finally comes out
Other Problems
5 The very lax regulation of US Agencyrsquos standards of emissions compared to other industrial nations 6 Everyone agrees that we need more studies to evidence the possible health effects yet nobody meanwhile considers any preventive measures Who shall carry this burden The Culprit or the Victim
A Scientific Controversy Arises
bull The Interphone Study that arises from the growing number of epidemiologic studies world wide linking brain tumors with cell phone use forced the industry to promote a study to disprove this evidence
bull This controversial and poorly designed study didnt come out the way they wanted and after several months of both sides claiming victory forced the WHO to assign an international group of experts to study all the available data and recommend
What The WHO Found
bull Please be aware that ip to that point in time no study had been done to analyze the effects of cell phones in children in relation to brain tumors
bull In May 2011 a committee of 71 scientific experts invited by the WHO after reviewing all the previous data concluded that microwaves as cancerigenous as lead chloroform and certain pesticides
bull No preventive measures recommended
What The WHO Found
bull Also concluded (From the Interphone study the industry had concluded otherwise) that a definitive increase in brain tumors was determined scientifically by 40 in the same side of the brain for cell user of at least 30 minutesday
bull We have to question if the number of 30 minutes reflects the real average time of a frequent user
bull iquestWhat would have been the incedence of tumors in users above 30 minutes
bull What would have been the incidence in exposed children at different levels
The Obsolescence of Present Regulations Standards
bull The present law was created in 1996 when the cell phone was still in diapers and wireless systems were not even in use (No 3G or 4G systems yet)
bull The power of big company lobbying is plainly seen under the regulation of Communication tower zoning when out of nowhere a sentence forbids the opposition to a placement of towers for health reasons
The Obsolescence of Present Regulations Standards
bull Yet ironically you may oppose it for reasons that affect property values
bull And the emissions safety standards were those that prevented thermal damages to adjacent persons only
bull Donrsquot you think 18 years is enough time to reconsider a law that regulates a rapidly evolving field
These are The Danger Zones For Cooking Our Brains What would tha new zones be for
Biologic Effects
Other Factors Other Than Distance To Consider For Intensity Of Transmission
bull In view of fact that the transmission intensity is also affected by ndash Call Traffic Density(active users)
ndash of Providers in nearby Tower
ndash And the new 3G and 4G systems are more powerful than those at time making the 1966 law
Results then that users that live within hundreds (100rsquos) meters from the towers will be exposed to intensities 1000 to 10000000 X higher than those farther away
Influence Of The Of Servers On The Tower And Buildings
bull The power intensity of transmission will be directly proportional to the of servers on the tower or building
bull Then we must realize that the safety limits established by the FCC for individual towers will be easily and ldquolegallyrdquo surpassed
bull If we add that new transmissions will be at higher levels when 3G and 4G are fully operational then we can understand the significant increase of exposure that nearby residents will encounter

Can We Then Conclude That School WiFi Systems Are safe
bull Most of the European Community doesnt and have postponed their establishment until further evidence show they are safe
bull Why not give the same opportunity to our children bull Why not use wired systems if they are the most
efficient of the two bull Are we not repeating the same mistakes of the past we
did with nicotine and cancer and lead and nerve damage
bull Shouldnrsquot we be studying more in detail the emerging evidence of the epidemiology of brain tumors in children as the exposure years increase
iquestWhat Are WiMAX
bull These are new wireless system technology that promise to increase the geographic extension of
bull So far they have shown effectivity up to 4-5 miles but they are trying to extend its range by increasing the strenght of the signals to 4G and the tower density
What Are WiMAX
bull These is an Executive branch project of the USA that plans to establish a nationwide broadband system to insure national security
bull Although no one can argue with that intention we must then ask What is wrong in doing it by fiber optic based networks
bull Arent wireless systems more prone to security risks and privacy issues
Questions That Arise From This Review
bull If the Wimax is just a more powerful WiFI with a wider range considering the risks previously discussed here Will not then its effects be more significative being the fact that a larger population sample will be exposed for a longer period of time (Are we not talking here about a massive population experiment since no previous data has determined the safety of)
Letrsquos No Monkey Around
Letrsquos Act In Solidarity
Conclusions bull 1 Although the present scientific data fails to clinch the final
link between EMF and disease patterns the growing emerging experimental and clinical evidence has a tendency to favor this connection
bull 2 Itrsquos from these evidence that the need to take mitiganting and preventive measures arises before the final verdict comes trough
bull 3 For these actions to arise from our government we need the support of all individuals professional and community based organizations to lobby towards this effort This effort will be kindled by massive educational efforts at all levels
bull 4 We must specially focus our efforts in the highest risk populations which are pregnant women children and the elderly
Reccomendations
bull Establish an inmediate moratorium on school WiFi Systems and WiMax for extensive populations
bull Review and update the 1966 FCC Communications law in accordance of present evidence Specially the criteria for Tower locations and levels of emissions
bull Create a biologic tissue risk emission rate simialr to the SARS (BSARS=Biologic Specific Absorption Rate)
bull Promote the use of Fiber Optics for the development of the national broadband effort
Other Problems
5 The very lax regulation of US Agencyrsquos standards of emissions compared to other industrial nations 6 Everyone agrees that we need more studies to evidence the possible health effects yet nobody meanwhile considers any preventive measures Who shall carry this burden The Culprit or the Victim
A Scientific Controversy Arises
bull The Interphone Study that arises from the growing number of epidemiologic studies world wide linking brain tumors with cell phone use forced the industry to promote a study to disprove this evidence
bull This controversial and poorly designed study didnt come out the way they wanted and after several months of both sides claiming victory forced the WHO to assign an international group of experts to study all the available data and recommend
What The WHO Found
bull Please be aware that ip to that point in time no study had been done to analyze the effects of cell phones in children in relation to brain tumors
bull In May 2011 a committee of 71 scientific experts invited by the WHO after reviewing all the previous data concluded that microwaves as cancerigenous as lead chloroform and certain pesticides
bull No preventive measures recommended
What The WHO Found
bull Also concluded (From the Interphone study the industry had concluded otherwise) that a definitive increase in brain tumors was determined scientifically by 40 in the same side of the brain for cell user of at least 30 minutesday
bull We have to question if the number of 30 minutes reflects the real average time of a frequent user
bull iquestWhat would have been the incedence of tumors in users above 30 minutes
bull What would have been the incidence in exposed children at different levels
The Obsolescence of Present Regulations Standards
bull The present law was created in 1996 when the cell phone was still in diapers and wireless systems were not even in use (No 3G or 4G systems yet)
bull The power of big company lobbying is plainly seen under the regulation of Communication tower zoning when out of nowhere a sentence forbids the opposition to a placement of towers for health reasons
The Obsolescence of Present Regulations Standards
bull Yet ironically you may oppose it for reasons that affect property values
bull And the emissions safety standards were those that prevented thermal damages to adjacent persons only
bull Donrsquot you think 18 years is enough time to reconsider a law that regulates a rapidly evolving field
These are The Danger Zones For Cooking Our Brains What would tha new zones be for
Biologic Effects
Other Factors Other Than Distance To Consider For Intensity Of Transmission
bull In view of fact that the transmission intensity is also affected by ndash Call Traffic Density(active users)
ndash of Providers in nearby Tower
ndash And the new 3G and 4G systems are more powerful than those at time making the 1966 law
Results then that users that live within hundreds (100rsquos) meters from the towers will be exposed to intensities 1000 to 10000000 X higher than those farther away
Influence Of The Of Servers On The Tower And Buildings
bull The power intensity of transmission will be directly proportional to the of servers on the tower or building
bull Then we must realize that the safety limits established by the FCC for individual towers will be easily and ldquolegallyrdquo surpassed
bull If we add that new transmissions will be at higher levels when 3G and 4G are fully operational then we can understand the significant increase of exposure that nearby residents will encounter

What is The Sar
bull Specific Absortion Rate- Its the thermal absorption rate of biologic tissues based on weight within a certain time frame Its the cooking rate of human flesh the safety rate for us is very very rare
bull All that this rating assures is that our brains will not be cooked with average user rate
bull The SAR has no assurance of biologic damage prevention since the industry denies its existence
Physical Effects of RF
bull Because no biologic effects are accepted yet
bull A cell phone transmitts 1 to 2 Watts within a frequency range of 824 - 849 MHz (CDMA) 890 - 915 MHz (GSM900) and 1710 ndash 1780 MHz (GSM1800) (Remember 3G and 4G are stonger)
bull 3G transmitts a 2110 ndash 2170 MHz
Physical Effects of RF
bull In the USA SAR cell phone limit is 16WKg that would be reached with an exposition time of 6 minutes per day Since the margin of safety established is between 3 to 4 times the limit An adultrsquos limit should not be more than 18 to 24 minutes per day Are you kidding me
bull How about kids here How about the additional exposure created by wireless sytems

Can We Then Conclude That School WiFi Systems Are safe
bull Most of the European Community doesnt and have postponed their establishment until further evidence show they are safe
bull Why not give the same opportunity to our children bull Why not use wired systems if they are the most
efficient of the two bull Are we not repeating the same mistakes of the past we
did with nicotine and cancer and lead and nerve damage
bull Shouldnrsquot we be studying more in detail the emerging evidence of the epidemiology of brain tumors in children as the exposure years increase
iquestWhat Are WiMAX
bull These are new wireless system technology that promise to increase the geographic extension of
bull So far they have shown effectivity up to 4-5 miles but they are trying to extend its range by increasing the strenght of the signals to 4G and the tower density
What Are WiMAX
bull These is an Executive branch project of the USA that plans to establish a nationwide broadband system to insure national security
bull Although no one can argue with that intention we must then ask What is wrong in doing it by fiber optic based networks
bull Arent wireless systems more prone to security risks and privacy issues
Questions That Arise From This Review
bull If the Wimax is just a more powerful WiFI with a wider range considering the risks previously discussed here Will not then its effects be more significative being the fact that a larger population sample will be exposed for a longer period of time (Are we not talking here about a massive population experiment since no previous data has determined the safety of)
Letrsquos No Monkey Around
Letrsquos Act In Solidarity
Conclusions bull 1 Although the present scientific data fails to clinch the final
link between EMF and disease patterns the growing emerging experimental and clinical evidence has a tendency to favor this connection
bull 2 Itrsquos from these evidence that the need to take mitiganting and preventive measures arises before the final verdict comes trough
bull 3 For these actions to arise from our government we need the support of all individuals professional and community based organizations to lobby towards this effort This effort will be kindled by massive educational efforts at all levels
bull 4 We must specially focus our efforts in the highest risk populations which are pregnant women children and the elderly
Reccomendations
bull Establish an inmediate moratorium on school WiFi Systems and WiMax for extensive populations
bull Review and update the 1966 FCC Communications law in accordance of present evidence Specially the criteria for Tower locations and levels of emissions
bull Create a biologic tissue risk emission rate simialr to the SARS (BSARS=Biologic Specific Absorption Rate)
bull Promote the use of Fiber Optics for the development of the national broadband effort
A Scientific Controversy Arises
bull The Interphone Study that arises from the growing number of epidemiologic studies world wide linking brain tumors with cell phone use forced the industry to promote a study to disprove this evidence
bull This controversial and poorly designed study didnt come out the way they wanted and after several months of both sides claiming victory forced the WHO to assign an international group of experts to study all the available data and recommend
What The WHO Found
bull Please be aware that ip to that point in time no study had been done to analyze the effects of cell phones in children in relation to brain tumors
bull In May 2011 a committee of 71 scientific experts invited by the WHO after reviewing all the previous data concluded that microwaves as cancerigenous as lead chloroform and certain pesticides
bull No preventive measures recommended
What The WHO Found
bull Also concluded (From the Interphone study the industry had concluded otherwise) that a definitive increase in brain tumors was determined scientifically by 40 in the same side of the brain for cell user of at least 30 minutesday
bull We have to question if the number of 30 minutes reflects the real average time of a frequent user
bull iquestWhat would have been the incedence of tumors in users above 30 minutes
bull What would have been the incidence in exposed children at different levels
The Obsolescence of Present Regulations Standards
bull The present law was created in 1996 when the cell phone was still in diapers and wireless systems were not even in use (No 3G or 4G systems yet)
bull The power of big company lobbying is plainly seen under the regulation of Communication tower zoning when out of nowhere a sentence forbids the opposition to a placement of towers for health reasons
The Obsolescence of Present Regulations Standards
bull Yet ironically you may oppose it for reasons that affect property values
bull And the emissions safety standards were those that prevented thermal damages to adjacent persons only
bull Donrsquot you think 18 years is enough time to reconsider a law that regulates a rapidly evolving field
These are The Danger Zones For Cooking Our Brains What would tha new zones be for
Biologic Effects
Other Factors Other Than Distance To Consider For Intensity Of Transmission
bull In view of fact that the transmission intensity is also affected by ndash Call Traffic Density(active users)
ndash of Providers in nearby Tower
ndash And the new 3G and 4G systems are more powerful than those at time making the 1966 law
Results then that users that live within hundreds (100rsquos) meters from the towers will be exposed to intensities 1000 to 10000000 X higher than those farther away
Influence Of The Of Servers On The Tower And Buildings
bull The power intensity of transmission will be directly proportional to the of servers on the tower or building
bull Then we must realize that the safety limits established by the FCC for individual towers will be easily and ldquolegallyrdquo surpassed
bull If we add that new transmissions will be at higher levels when 3G and 4G are fully operational then we can understand the significant increase of exposure that nearby residents will encounter

bull 3G transmitts a 2110 ndash 2170 MHz
Physical Effects of RF
bull In the USA SAR cell phone limit is 16WKg that would be reached with an exposition time of 6 minutes per day Since the margin of safety established is between 3 to 4 times the limit An adultrsquos limit should not be more than 18 to 24 minutes per day Are you kidding me

Can We Then Conclude That School WiFi Systems Are safe
bull Most of the European Community doesnt and have postponed their establishment until further evidence show they are safe
bull Why not give the same opportunity to our children bull Why not use wired systems if they are the most
efficient of the two bull Are we not repeating the same mistakes of the past we
did with nicotine and cancer and lead and nerve damage
bull Shouldnrsquot we be studying more in detail the emerging evidence of the epidemiology of brain tumors in children as the exposure years increase
iquestWhat Are WiMAX
bull These are new wireless system technology that promise to increase the geographic extension of
bull So far they have shown effectivity up to 4-5 miles but they are trying to extend its range by increasing the strenght of the signals to 4G and the tower density
What Are WiMAX
bull These is an Executive branch project of the USA that plans to establish a nationwide broadband system to insure national security
bull Although no one can argue with that intention we must then ask What is wrong in doing it by fiber optic based networks
bull Arent wireless systems more prone to security risks and privacy issues
Questions That Arise From This Review
bull If the Wimax is just a more powerful WiFI with a wider range considering the risks previously discussed here Will not then its effects be more significative being the fact that a larger population sample will be exposed for a longer period of time (Are we not talking here about a massive population experiment since no previous data has determined the safety of)
Letrsquos No Monkey Around
Letrsquos Act In Solidarity
Conclusions bull 1 Although the present scientific data fails to clinch the final
link between EMF and disease patterns the growing emerging experimental and clinical evidence has a tendency to favor this connection
bull 2 Itrsquos from these evidence that the need to take mitiganting and preventive measures arises before the final verdict comes trough
bull 3 For these actions to arise from our government we need the support of all individuals professional and community based organizations to lobby towards this effort This effort will be kindled by massive educational efforts at all levels
bull 4 We must specially focus our efforts in the highest risk populations which are pregnant women children and the elderly
Reccomendations
bull Establish an inmediate moratorium on school WiFi Systems and WiMax for extensive populations
bull Review and update the 1966 FCC Communications law in accordance of present evidence Specially the criteria for Tower locations and levels of emissions
bull Create a biologic tissue risk emission rate simialr to the SARS (BSARS=Biologic Specific Absorption Rate)
bull Promote the use of Fiber Optics for the development of the national broadband effort
What The WHO Found
bull Also concluded (From the Interphone study the industry had concluded otherwise) that a definitive increase in brain tumors was determined scientifically by 40 in the same side of the brain for cell user of at least 30 minutesday
bull We have to question if the number of 30 minutes reflects the real average time of a frequent user
bull iquestWhat would have been the incedence of tumors in users above 30 minutes
bull What would have been the incidence in exposed children at different levels
The Obsolescence of Present Regulations Standards
bull The present law was created in 1996 when the cell phone was still in diapers and wireless systems were not even in use (No 3G or 4G systems yet)
bull The power of big company lobbying is plainly seen under the regulation of Communication tower zoning when out of nowhere a sentence forbids the opposition to a placement of towers for health reasons
The Obsolescence of Present Regulations Standards
bull Yet ironically you may oppose it for reasons that affect property values
bull And the emissions safety standards were those that prevented thermal damages to adjacent persons only
bull Donrsquot you think 18 years is enough time to reconsider a law that regulates a rapidly evolving field
These are The Danger Zones For Cooking Our Brains What would tha new zones be for
Biologic Effects
Other Factors Other Than Distance To Consider For Intensity Of Transmission
bull In view of fact that the transmission intensity is also affected by ndash Call Traffic Density(active users)
ndash of Providers in nearby Tower
ndash And the new 3G and 4G systems are more powerful than those at time making the 1966 law
Results then that users that live within hundreds (100rsquos) meters from the towers will be exposed to intensities 1000 to 10000000 X higher than those farther away
Influence Of The Of Servers On The Tower And Buildings
bull The power intensity of transmission will be directly proportional to the of servers on the tower or building
bull Then we must realize that the safety limits established by the FCC for individual towers will be easily and ldquolegallyrdquo surpassed
bull If we add that new transmissions will be at higher levels when 3G and 4G are fully operational then we can understand the significant increase of exposure that nearby residents will encounter

What is The Sar
bull Specific Absortion Rate- Its the thermal absorption rate of biologic tissues based on weight within a certain time frame Its the cooking rate of human flesh the safety rate for us is very very rare
bull All that this rating assures is that our brains will not be cooked with average user rate
bull The SAR has no assurance of biologic damage prevention since the industry denies its existence
Physical Effects of RF
bull Because no biologic effects are accepted yet
bull A cell phone transmitts 1 to 2 Watts within a frequency range of 824 - 849 MHz (CDMA) 890 - 915 MHz (GSM900) and 1710 ndash 1780 MHz (GSM1800) (Remember 3G and 4G are stonger)
bull 3G transmitts a 2110 ndash 2170 MHz
Physical Effects of RF
bull In the USA SAR cell phone limit is 16WKg that would be reached with an exposition time of 6 minutes per day Since the margin of safety established is between 3 to 4 times the limit An adultrsquos limit should not be more than 18 to 24 minutes per day Are you kidding me
bull How about kids here How about the additional exposure created by wireless sytems

bull If the Wimax is just a more powerful WiFI with a wider range considering the risks previously discussed here Will not then its effects be more significative being the fact that a larger population sample will be exposed for a longer period of time (Are we not talking here about a massive population experiment since no previous data has determined the safety of)

link between EMF and disease patterns the growing emerging experimental and clinical evidence has a tendency to favor this connection
bull 2 Itrsquos from these evidence that the need to take mitiganting and preventive measures arises before the final verdict comes trough
bull 3 For these actions to arise from our government we need the support of all individuals professional and community based organizations to lobby towards this effort This effort will be kindled by massive educational efforts at all levels
bull 4 We must specially focus our efforts in the highest risk populations which are pregnant women children and the elderly

bull Create a biologic tissue risk emission rate simialr to the SARS (BSARS=Biologic Specific Absorption Rate)
bull Promote the use of Fiber Optics for the development of the national broadband effort
The Obsolescence of Present Regulations Standards
bull The present law was created in 1996 when the cell phone was still in diapers and wireless systems were not even in use (No 3G or 4G systems yet)
bull The power of big company lobbying is plainly seen under the regulation of Communication tower zoning when out of nowhere a sentence forbids the opposition to a placement of towers for health reasons
The Obsolescence of Present Regulations Standards
bull Yet ironically you may oppose it for reasons that affect property values
bull And the emissions safety standards were those that prevented thermal damages to adjacent persons only
bull Donrsquot you think 18 years is enough time to reconsider a law that regulates a rapidly evolving field
These are The Danger Zones For Cooking Our Brains What would tha new zones be for

bull In view of fact that the transmission intensity is also affected by ndash Call Traffic Density(active users)
ndash of Providers in nearby Tower
ndash And the new 3G and 4G systems are more powerful than those at time making the 1966 law
Results then that users that live within hundreds (100rsquos) meters from the towers will be exposed to intensities 1000 to 10000000 X higher than those farther away
Influence Of The Of Servers On The Tower And Buildings
bull The power intensity of transmission will be directly proportional to the of servers on the tower or building
bull Then we must realize that the safety limits established by the FCC for individual towers will be easily and ldquolegallyrdquo surpassed
bull If we add that new transmissions will be at higher levels when 3G and 4G are fully operational then we can understand the significant increase of exposure that nearby residents will encounter

What is The Sar
bull Specific Absortion Rate- Its the thermal absorption rate of biologic tissues based on weight within a certain time frame Its the cooking rate of human flesh the safety rate for us is very very rare
bull All that this rating assures is that our brains will not be cooked with average user rate
bull The SAR has no assurance of biologic damage prevention since the industry denies its existence
Physical Effects of RF
bull Because no biologic effects are accepted yet
bull A cell phone transmitts 1 to 2 Watts within a frequency range of 824 - 849 MHz (CDMA) 890 - 915 MHz (GSM900) and 1710 ndash 1780 MHz (GSM1800) (Remember 3G and 4G are stonger)
bull 3G transmitts a 2110 ndash 2170 MHz
Physical Effects of RF
bull In the USA SAR cell phone limit is 16WKg that would be reached with an exposition time of 6 minutes per day Since the margin of safety established is between 3 to 4 times the limit An adultrsquos limit should not be more than 18 to 24 minutes per day Are you kidding me

bull A cell phone transmitts 1 to 2 Watts within a frequency range of 824 - 849 MHz (CDMA) 890 - 915 MHz (GSM900) and 1710 ndash 1780 MHz (GSM1800) (Remember 3G and 4G are stonger)
bull 3G transmitts a 2110 ndash 2170 MHz
Physical Effects of RF
bull In the USA SAR cell phone limit is 16WKg that would be reached with an exposition time of 6 minutes per day Since the margin of safety established is between 3 to 4 times the limit An adultrsquos limit should not be more than 18 to 24 minutes per day Are you kidding me
bull How about kids here How about the additional exposure created by wireless sytems

Can We Then Conclude That School WiFi Systems Are safe
bull Most of the European Community doesnt and have postponed their establishment until further evidence show they are safe
bull Why not give the same opportunity to our children bull Why not use wired systems if they are the most
efficient of the two bull Are we not repeating the same mistakes of the past we
did with nicotine and cancer and lead and nerve damage
bull Shouldnrsquot we be studying more in detail the emerging evidence of the epidemiology of brain tumors in children as the exposure years increase
iquestWhat Are WiMAX
bull These are new wireless system technology that promise to increase the geographic extension of
bull So far they have shown effectivity up to 4-5 miles but they are trying to extend its range by increasing the strenght of the signals to 4G and the tower density
What Are WiMAX
bull These is an Executive branch project of the USA that plans to establish a nationwide broadband system to insure national security
bull Although no one can argue with that intention we must then ask What is wrong in doing it by fiber optic based networks
bull Arent wireless systems more prone to security risks and privacy issues
Questions That Arise From This Review
bull If the Wimax is just a more powerful WiFI with a wider range considering the risks previously discussed here Will not then its effects be more significative being the fact that a larger population sample will be exposed for a longer period of time (Are we not talking here about a massive population experiment since no previous data has determined the safety of)
Letrsquos No Monkey Around
Letrsquos Act In Solidarity
Conclusions bull 1 Although the present scientific data fails to clinch the final
link between EMF and disease patterns the growing emerging experimental and clinical evidence has a tendency to favor this connection
bull 2 Itrsquos from these evidence that the need to take mitiganting and preventive measures arises before the final verdict comes trough
bull 3 For these actions to arise from our government we need the support of all individuals professional and community based organizations to lobby towards this effort This effort will be kindled by massive educational efforts at all levels
bull 4 We must specially focus our efforts in the highest risk populations which are pregnant women children and the elderly
Reccomendations
bull Establish an inmediate moratorium on school WiFi Systems and WiMax for extensive populations
bull Review and update the 1966 FCC Communications law in accordance of present evidence Specially the criteria for Tower locations and levels of emissions
bull Create a biologic tissue risk emission rate simialr to the SARS (BSARS=Biologic Specific Absorption Rate)
bull Promote the use of Fiber Optics for the development of the national broadband effort
These are The Danger Zones For Cooking Our Brains What would tha new zones be for
Biologic Effects
Other Factors Other Than Distance To Consider For Intensity Of Transmission
bull In view of fact that the transmission intensity is also affected by ndash Call Traffic Density(active users)
ndash of Providers in nearby Tower
ndash And the new 3G and 4G systems are more powerful than those at time making the 1966 law
Results then that users that live within hundreds (100rsquos) meters from the towers will be exposed to intensities 1000 to 10000000 X higher than those farther away
Influence Of The Of Servers On The Tower And Buildings
bull The power intensity of transmission will be directly proportional to the of servers on the tower or building
bull Then we must realize that the safety limits established by the FCC for individual towers will be easily and ldquolegallyrdquo surpassed
bull If we add that new transmissions will be at higher levels when 3G and 4G are fully operational then we can understand the significant increase of exposure that nearby residents will encounter

What is The Sar
bull Specific Absortion Rate- Its the thermal absorption rate of biologic tissues based on weight within a certain time frame Its the cooking rate of human flesh the safety rate for us is very very rare

bull The SAR has no assurance of biologic damage prevention since the industry denies its existence
Physical Effects of RF

Questions That Arise From This Review
bull If the Wimax is just a more powerful WiFI with a wider range considering the risks previously discussed here Will not then its effects be more significative being the fact that a larger population sample will be exposed for a longer period of time (Are we not talking here about a massive population experiment since no previous data has determined the safety of)

link between EMF and disease patterns the growing emerging experimental and clinical evidence has a tendency to favor this connection
bull 2 Itrsquos from these evidence that the need to take mitiganting and preventive measures arises before the final verdict comes trough
bull 3 For these actions to arise from our government we need the support of all individuals professional and community based organizations to lobby towards this effort This effort will be kindled by massive educational efforts at all levels
bull 4 We must specially focus our efforts in the highest risk populations which are pregnant women children and the elderly
Reccomendations
bull Establish an inmediate moratorium on school WiFi Systems and WiMax for extensive populations
bull Review and update the 1966 FCC Communications law in accordance of present evidence Specially the criteria for Tower locations and levels of emissions
bull Create a biologic tissue risk emission rate simialr to the SARS (BSARS=Biologic Specific Absorption Rate)
bull Promote the use of Fiber Optics for the development of the national broadband effort
Other Factors Other Than Distance To Consider For Intensity Of Transmission
bull In view of fact that the transmission intensity is also affected by ndash Call Traffic Density(active users)
ndash of Providers in nearby Tower
ndash And the new 3G and 4G systems are more powerful than those at time making the 1966 law
Results then that users that live within hundreds (100rsquos) meters from the towers will be exposed to intensities 1000 to 10000000 X higher than those farther away
Influence Of The Of Servers On The Tower And Buildings
bull The power intensity of transmission will be directly proportional to the of servers on the tower or building
bull Then we must realize that the safety limits established by the FCC for individual towers will be easily and ldquolegallyrdquo surpassed
bull If we add that new transmissions will be at higher levels when 3G and 4G are fully operational then we can understand the significant increase of exposure that nearby residents will encounter

What is The Sar
bull Specific Absortion Rate- Its the thermal absorption rate of biologic tissues based on weight within a certain time frame Its the cooking rate of human flesh the safety rate for us is very very rare
bull All that this rating assures is that our brains will not be cooked with average user rate
bull The SAR has no assurance of biologic damage prevention since the industry denies its existence
Physical Effects of RF
bull Because no biologic effects are accepted yet
bull A cell phone transmitts 1 to 2 Watts within a frequency range of 824 - 849 MHz (CDMA) 890 - 915 MHz (GSM900) and 1710 ndash 1780 MHz (GSM1800) (Remember 3G and 4G are stonger)
bull 3G transmitts a 2110 ndash 2170 MHz
Physical Effects of RF
bull In the USA SAR cell phone limit is 16WKg that would be reached with an exposition time of 6 minutes per day Since the margin of safety established is between 3 to 4 times the limit An adultrsquos limit should not be more than 18 to 24 minutes per day Are you kidding me

Can We Then Conclude That School WiFi Systems Are safe
bull Most of the European Community doesnt and have postponed their establishment until further evidence show they are safe
bull Why not give the same opportunity to our children bull Why not use wired systems if they are the most
efficient of the two bull Are we not repeating the same mistakes of the past we
did with nicotine and cancer and lead and nerve damage
bull Shouldnrsquot we be studying more in detail the emerging evidence of the epidemiology of brain tumors in children as the exposure years increase
iquestWhat Are WiMAX
bull These are new wireless system technology that promise to increase the geographic extension of
bull So far they have shown effectivity up to 4-5 miles but they are trying to extend its range by increasing the strenght of the signals to 4G and the tower density
What Are WiMAX
bull These is an Executive branch project of the USA that plans to establish a nationwide broadband system to insure national security
bull Although no one can argue with that intention we must then ask What is wrong in doing it by fiber optic based networks
bull Arent wireless systems more prone to security risks and privacy issues
Questions That Arise From This Review
bull If the Wimax is just a more powerful WiFI with a wider range considering the risks previously discussed here Will not then its effects be more significative being the fact that a larger population sample will be exposed for a longer period of time (Are we not talking here about a massive population experiment since no previous data has determined the safety of)
Letrsquos No Monkey Around
Letrsquos Act In Solidarity
Conclusions bull 1 Although the present scientific data fails to clinch the final
link between EMF and disease patterns the growing emerging experimental and clinical evidence has a tendency to favor this connection
bull 2 Itrsquos from these evidence that the need to take mitiganting and preventive measures arises before the final verdict comes trough
bull 3 For these actions to arise from our government we need the support of all individuals professional and community based organizations to lobby towards this effort This effort will be kindled by massive educational efforts at all levels
bull 4 We must specially focus our efforts in the highest risk populations which are pregnant women children and the elderly
Reccomendations
bull Establish an inmediate moratorium on school WiFi Systems and WiMax for extensive populations
bull Review and update the 1966 FCC Communications law in accordance of present evidence Specially the criteria for Tower locations and levels of emissions
bull Create a biologic tissue risk emission rate simialr to the SARS (BSARS=Biologic Specific Absorption Rate)
bull Promote the use of Fiber Optics for the development of the national broadband effort

What is The Sar
bull Specific Absortion Rate- Its the thermal absorption rate of biologic tissues based on weight within a certain time frame Its the cooking rate of human flesh the safety rate for us is very very rare
bull All that this rating assures is that our brains will not be cooked with average user rate
bull The SAR has no assurance of biologic damage prevention since the industry denies its existence
Physical Effects of RF
bull Because no biologic effects are accepted yet
bull A cell phone transmitts 1 to 2 Watts within a frequency range of 824 - 849 MHz (CDMA) 890 - 915 MHz (GSM900) and 1710 ndash 1780 MHz (GSM1800) (Remember 3G and 4G are stonger)
bull 3G transmitts a 2110 ndash 2170 MHz
Physical Effects of RF
bull In the USA SAR cell phone limit is 16WKg that would be reached with an exposition time of 6 minutes per day Since the margin of safety established is between 3 to 4 times the limit An adultrsquos limit should not be more than 18 to 24 minutes per day Are you kidding me
bull How about kids here How about the additional exposure created by wireless sytems

Can We Then Conclude That School WiFi Systems Are safe
bull Most of the European Community doesnt and have postponed their establishment until further evidence show they are safe
bull Why not give the same opportunity to our children bull Why not use wired systems if they are the most
efficient of the two bull Are we not repeating the same mistakes of the past we
did with nicotine and cancer and lead and nerve damage
bull Shouldnrsquot we be studying more in detail the emerging evidence of the epidemiology of brain tumors in children as the exposure years increase
iquestWhat Are WiMAX
bull These are new wireless system technology that promise to increase the geographic extension of
bull So far they have shown effectivity up to 4-5 miles but they are trying to extend its range by increasing the strenght of the signals to 4G and the tower density
What Are WiMAX
bull These is an Executive branch project of the USA that plans to establish a nationwide broadband system to insure national security
bull Although no one can argue with that intention we must then ask What is wrong in doing it by fiber optic based networks
bull Arent wireless systems more prone to security risks and privacy issues
Questions That Arise From This Review
bull If the Wimax is just a more powerful WiFI with a wider range considering the risks previously discussed here Will not then its effects be more significative being the fact that a larger population sample will be exposed for a longer period of time (Are we not talking here about a massive population experiment since no previous data has determined the safety of)
Letrsquos No Monkey Around
Letrsquos Act In Solidarity
Conclusions bull 1 Although the present scientific data fails to clinch the final
link between EMF and disease patterns the growing emerging experimental and clinical evidence has a tendency to favor this connection
bull 2 Itrsquos from these evidence that the need to take mitiganting and preventive measures arises before the final verdict comes trough
bull 3 For these actions to arise from our government we need the support of all individuals professional and community based organizations to lobby towards this effort This effort will be kindled by massive educational efforts at all levels
bull 4 We must specially focus our efforts in the highest risk populations which are pregnant women children and the elderly
Reccomendations
bull Establish an inmediate moratorium on school WiFi Systems and WiMax for extensive populations
bull Review and update the 1966 FCC Communications law in accordance of present evidence Specially the criteria for Tower locations and levels of emissions
bull Create a biologic tissue risk emission rate simialr to the SARS (BSARS=Biologic Specific Absorption Rate)
bull Promote the use of Fiber Optics for the development of the national broadband effort

What is The Sar
bull Specific Absortion Rate- Its the thermal absorption rate of biologic tissues based on weight within a certain time frame Its the cooking rate of human flesh the safety rate for us is very very rare
bull All that this rating assures is that our brains will not be cooked with average user rate
bull The SAR has no assurance of biologic damage prevention since the industry denies its existence
Physical Effects of RF
bull Because no biologic effects are accepted yet
bull A cell phone transmitts 1 to 2 Watts within a frequency range of 824 - 849 MHz (CDMA) 890 - 915 MHz (GSM900) and 1710 ndash 1780 MHz (GSM1800) (Remember 3G and 4G are stonger)
bull 3G transmitts a 2110 ndash 2170 MHz
Physical Effects of RF
bull In the USA SAR cell phone limit is 16WKg that would be reached with an exposition time of 6 minutes per day Since the margin of safety established is between 3 to 4 times the limit An adultrsquos limit should not be more than 18 to 24 minutes per day Are you kidding me
bull How about kids here How about the additional exposure created by wireless sytems

Can We Then Conclude That School WiFi Systems Are safe
bull Most of the European Community doesnt and have postponed their establishment until further evidence show they are safe
bull Why not give the same opportunity to our children bull Why not use wired systems if they are the most
efficient of the two bull Are we not repeating the same mistakes of the past we
did with nicotine and cancer and lead and nerve damage
bull Shouldnrsquot we be studying more in detail the emerging evidence of the epidemiology of brain tumors in children as the exposure years increase
iquestWhat Are WiMAX
bull These are new wireless system technology that promise to increase the geographic extension of
bull So far they have shown effectivity up to 4-5 miles but they are trying to extend its range by increasing the strenght of the signals to 4G and the tower density
What Are WiMAX
bull These is an Executive branch project of the USA that plans to establish a nationwide broadband system to insure national security
bull Although no one can argue with that intention we must then ask What is wrong in doing it by fiber optic based networks
bull Arent wireless systems more prone to security risks and privacy issues
Questions That Arise From This Review
bull If the Wimax is just a more powerful WiFI with a wider range considering the risks previously discussed here Will not then its effects be more significative being the fact that a larger population sample will be exposed for a longer period of time (Are we not talking here about a massive population experiment since no previous data has determined the safety of)
Letrsquos No Monkey Around
Letrsquos Act In Solidarity
Conclusions bull 1 Although the present scientific data fails to clinch the final
link between EMF and disease patterns the growing emerging experimental and clinical evidence has a tendency to favor this connection
bull 2 Itrsquos from these evidence that the need to take mitiganting and preventive measures arises before the final verdict comes trough
bull 3 For these actions to arise from our government we need the support of all individuals professional and community based organizations to lobby towards this effort This effort will be kindled by massive educational efforts at all levels
bull 4 We must specially focus our efforts in the highest risk populations which are pregnant women children and the elderly
Reccomendations
bull Establish an inmediate moratorium on school WiFi Systems and WiMax for extensive populations
bull Review and update the 1966 FCC Communications law in accordance of present evidence Specially the criteria for Tower locations and levels of emissions
bull Create a biologic tissue risk emission rate simialr to the SARS (BSARS=Biologic Specific Absorption Rate)
bull Promote the use of Fiber Optics for the development of the national broadband effort
Physical Effects of RF
bull Because no biologic effects are accepted yet
bull A cell phone transmitts 1 to 2 Watts within a frequency range of 824 - 849 MHz (CDMA) 890 - 915 MHz (GSM900) and 1710 ndash 1780 MHz (GSM1800) (Remember 3G and 4G are stonger)
bull 3G transmitts a 2110 ndash 2170 MHz
Physical Effects of RF
bull In the USA SAR cell phone limit is 16WKg that would be reached with an exposition time of 6 minutes per day Since the margin of safety established is between 3 to 4 times the limit An adultrsquos limit should not be more than 18 to 24 minutes per day Are you kidding me

Can We Then Conclude That School WiFi Systems Are safe
bull Most of the European Community doesnt and have postponed their establishment until further evidence show they are safe
bull Why not give the same opportunity to our children bull Why not use wired systems if they are the most
efficient of the two bull Are we not repeating the same mistakes of the past we
did with nicotine and cancer and lead and nerve damage
bull Shouldnrsquot we be studying more in detail the emerging evidence of the epidemiology of brain tumors in children as the exposure years increase
iquestWhat Are WiMAX
bull These are new wireless system technology that promise to increase the geographic extension of
bull So far they have shown effectivity up to 4-5 miles but they are trying to extend its range by increasing the strenght of the signals to 4G and the tower density
What Are WiMAX
bull These is an Executive branch project of the USA that plans to establish a nationwide broadband system to insure national security
bull Although no one can argue with that intention we must then ask What is wrong in doing it by fiber optic based networks
bull Arent wireless systems more prone to security risks and privacy issues
Questions That Arise From This Review
bull If the Wimax is just a more powerful WiFI with a wider range considering the risks previously discussed here Will not then its effects be more significative being the fact that a larger population sample will be exposed for a longer period of time (Are we not talking here about a massive population experiment since no previous data has determined the safety of)
Letrsquos No Monkey Around
Letrsquos Act In Solidarity
Conclusions bull 1 Although the present scientific data fails to clinch the final
link between EMF and disease patterns the growing emerging experimental and clinical evidence has a tendency to favor this connection
bull 2 Itrsquos from these evidence that the need to take mitiganting and preventive measures arises before the final verdict comes trough
bull 3 For these actions to arise from our government we need the support of all individuals professional and community based organizations to lobby towards this effort This effort will be kindled by massive educational efforts at all levels
bull 4 We must specially focus our efforts in the highest risk populations which are pregnant women children and the elderly
Reccomendations
bull Establish an inmediate moratorium on school WiFi Systems and WiMax for extensive populations
bull Review and update the 1966 FCC Communications law in accordance of present evidence Specially the criteria for Tower locations and levels of emissions
bull Create a biologic tissue risk emission rate simialr to the SARS (BSARS=Biologic Specific Absorption Rate)
bull Promote the use of Fiber Optics for the development of the national broadband effort

bull Why not give the same opportunity to our children bull Why not use wired systems if they are the most
efficient of the two bull Are we not repeating the same mistakes of the past we
did with nicotine and cancer and lead and nerve damage
bull Shouldnrsquot we be studying more in detail the emerging evidence of the epidemiology of brain tumors in children as the exposure years increase

Conclusions bull 1 Although the present scientific data fails to clinch the final
link between EMF and disease patterns the growing emerging experimental and clinical evidence has a tendency to favor this connection
bull 2 Itrsquos from these evidence that the need to take mitiganting and preventive measures arises before the final verdict comes trough
bull 3 For these actions to arise from our government we need the support of all individuals professional and community based organizations to lobby towards this effort This effort will be kindled by massive educational efforts at all levels
bull 4 We must specially focus our efforts in the highest risk populations which are pregnant women children and the elderly
Reccomendations

Can We Then Conclude That School WiFi Systems Are safe
bull Most of the European Community doesnt and have postponed their establishment until further evidence show they are safe
bull Why not give the same opportunity to our children bull Why not use wired systems if they are the most
efficient of the two bull Are we not repeating the same mistakes of the past we
did with nicotine and cancer and lead and nerve damage
bull Shouldnrsquot we be studying more in detail the emerging evidence of the epidemiology of brain tumors in children as the exposure years increase
iquestWhat Are WiMAX
bull These are new wireless system technology that promise to increase the geographic extension of
bull So far they have shown effectivity up to 4-5 miles but they are trying to extend its range by increasing the strenght of the signals to 4G and the tower density
What Are WiMAX
bull These is an Executive branch project of the USA that plans to establish a nationwide broadband system to insure national security
bull Although no one can argue with that intention we must then ask What is wrong in doing it by fiber optic based networks
bull Arent wireless systems more prone to security risks and privacy issues
Questions That Arise From This Review
bull If the Wimax is just a more powerful WiFI with a wider range considering the risks previously discussed here Will not then its effects be more significative being the fact that a larger population sample will be exposed for a longer period of time (Are we not talking here about a massive population experiment since no previous data has determined the safety of)
Letrsquos No Monkey Around
Letrsquos Act In Solidarity
Conclusions bull 1 Although the present scientific data fails to clinch the final
link between EMF and disease patterns the growing emerging experimental and clinical evidence has a tendency to favor this connection
bull 2 Itrsquos from these evidence that the need to take mitiganting and preventive measures arises before the final verdict comes trough
bull 3 For these actions to arise from our government we need the support of all individuals professional and community based organizations to lobby towards this effort This effort will be kindled by massive educational efforts at all levels
bull 4 We must specially focus our efforts in the highest risk populations which are pregnant women children and the elderly
Reccomendations
bull Establish an inmediate moratorium on school WiFi Systems and WiMax for extensive populations
bull Review and update the 1966 FCC Communications law in accordance of present evidence Specially the criteria for Tower locations and levels of emissions
bull Create a biologic tissue risk emission rate simialr to the SARS (BSARS=Biologic Specific Absorption Rate)

Questions That Arise From This Review
bull If the Wimax is just a more powerful WiFI with a wider range considering the risks previously discussed here Will not then its effects be more significative being the fact that a larger population sample will be exposed for a longer period of time (Are we not talking here about a massive population experiment since no previous data has determined the safety of)
Letrsquos No Monkey Around

Conclusions bull 1 Although the present scientific data fails to clinch the final
link between EMF and disease patterns the growing emerging experimental and clinical evidence has a tendency to favor this connection
bull 2 Itrsquos from these evidence that the need to take mitiganting and preventive measures arises before the final verdict comes trough
bull 3 For these actions to arise from our government we need the support of all individuals professional and community based organizations to lobby towards this effort This effort will be kindled by massive educational efforts at all levels
bull 4 We must specially focus our efforts in the highest risk populations which are pregnant women children and the elderly
Reccomendations
bull Establish an inmediate moratorium on school WiFi Systems and WiMax for extensive populations
bull Review and update the 1966 FCC Communications law in accordance of present evidence Specially the criteria for Tower locations and levels of emissions
bull Create a biologic tissue risk emission rate simialr to the SARS (BSARS=Biologic Specific Absorption Rate)

Can We Then Conclude That School WiFi Systems Are safe
bull Most of the European Community doesnt and have postponed their establishment until further evidence show they are safe
bull Why not give the same opportunity to our children bull Why not use wired systems if they are the most
efficient of the two bull Are we not repeating the same mistakes of the past we
did with nicotine and cancer and lead and nerve damage
bull Shouldnrsquot we be studying more in detail the emerging evidence of the epidemiology of brain tumors in children as the exposure years increase
iquestWhat Are WiMAX
bull These are new wireless system technology that promise to increase the geographic extension of
bull So far they have shown effectivity up to 4-5 miles but they are trying to extend its range by increasing the strenght of the signals to 4G and the tower density
What Are WiMAX
bull These is an Executive branch project of the USA that plans to establish a nationwide broadband system to insure national security
bull Although no one can argue with that intention we must then ask What is wrong in doing it by fiber optic based networks
bull Arent wireless systems more prone to security risks and privacy issues
Questions That Arise From This Review
bull If the Wimax is just a more powerful WiFI with a wider range considering the risks previously discussed here Will not then its effects be more significative being the fact that a larger population sample will be exposed for a longer period of time (Are we not talking here about a massive population experiment since no previous data has determined the safety of)
Letrsquos No Monkey Around

Conclusions bull 1 Although the present scientific data fails to clinch the final
link between EMF and disease patterns the growing emerging experimental and clinical evidence has a tendency to favor this connection
bull 2 Itrsquos from these evidence that the need to take mitiganting and preventive measures arises before the final verdict comes trough
bull 3 For these actions to arise from our government we need the support of all individuals professional and community based organizations to lobby towards this effort This effort will be kindled by massive educational efforts at all levels
bull 4 We must specially focus our efforts in the highest risk populations which are pregnant women children and the elderly
Reccomendations
bull Establish an inmediate moratorium on school WiFi Systems and WiMax for extensive populations
bull Review and update the 1966 FCC Communications law in accordance of present evidence Specially the criteria for Tower locations and levels of emissions
bull Create a biologic tissue risk emission rate simialr to the SARS (BSARS=Biologic Specific Absorption Rate)

Conclusions bull 1 Although the present scientific data fails to clinch the final
link between EMF and disease patterns the growing emerging experimental and clinical evidence has a tendency to favor this connection
bull 2 Itrsquos from these evidence that the need to take mitiganting and preventive measures arises before the final verdict comes trough
bull 3 For these actions to arise from our government we need the support of all individuals professional and community based organizations to lobby towards this effort This effort will be kindled by massive educational efforts at all levels
bull 4 We must specially focus our efforts in the highest risk populations which are pregnant women children and the elderly
Reccomendations
bull Establish an inmediate moratorium on school WiFi Systems and WiMax for extensive populations
bull Review and update the 1966 FCC Communications law in accordance of present evidence Specially the criteria for Tower locations and levels of emissions
bull Create a biologic tissue risk emission rate simialr to the SARS (BSARS=Biologic Specific Absorption Rate)
bull Promote the use of Fiber Optics for the development of the national broadband effort

Symptoms Reported In Children Exposed to School WIFI₁
bull Headaches Nausea - Veacutertigo (disappears after school) Visual and Auditory Distortions (localizing volume and tonality) Increased heart rate and irregularity (Tachycardia) Memory loss (Recent origin)
bull ADHD Transient skin rashes (disappearat recess) School Anxiety ( recent origin) Night sweats Insomnia(microwaves alter melatonin levels ) Report symptoms to infosafeschoolca

Can We Then Conclude That School WiFi Systems Are safe
bull Most of the European Community doesnt and have postponed their establishment until further evidence show they are safe
bull Why not give the same opportunity to our children bull Why not use wired systems if they are the most
efficient of the two bull Are we not repeating the same mistakes of the past we
did with nicotine and cancer and lead and nerve damage
bull Shouldnrsquot we be studying more in detail the emerging evidence of the epidemiology of brain tumors in children as the exposure years increase
iquestWhat Are WiMAX
bull These are new wireless system technology that promise to increase the geographic extension of
bull So far they have shown effectivity up to 4-5 miles but they are trying to extend its range by increasing the strenght of the signals to 4G and the tower density
What Are WiMAX
bull These is an Executive branch project of the USA that plans to establish a nationwide broadband system to insure national security
bull Although no one can argue with that intention we must then ask What is wrong in doing it by fiber optic based networks
bull Arent wireless systems more prone to security risks and privacy issues
Questions That Arise From This Review
bull If the Wimax is just a more powerful WiFI with a wider range considering the risks previously discussed here Will not then its effects be more significative being the fact that a larger population sample will be exposed for a longer period of time (Are we not talking here about a massive population experiment since no previous data has determined the safety of)
