Guest guest Posted January 31, 2008 Report Share Posted January 31, 2008 Wi-Fi in the air: Do you Care? Wi-Fi: Technology with Consequences By: Aurore Adamkiewicz, ND Germany is banning Wi-Fi in public areas and warning it's citizens about the danger of wireless internet, this is in sharp contrast to life in the States where the very public display of " wi-fi " is at practically every store you go into. Indeed, Wi-Fi signs are everywhere- " Free Wi-Fi " in diners, cafes, and bookstores. What does this sign mean to you and how are you effected by " Free Wi-Fi " ? Well, the biggest problem is the strong electro-magnetic current and once it it is directed into the air towards you-it is hard to avoid because once it is in your area, everyone there " picks " it up. I can only guess that the fall out of the Wi-fi waves will be similar to when I worked in an oncology clinic on the east side at the DMC. We would have four or five people on one block with cancer come in- The doctors always made sure, when that happened, not to schedule them on the same days.In fact, like a naive-idiot at the time, I actually brought it to the attention of the doctors...assuming they didn't know or realize these people lived by eachother in " cancer pockets " - Well, the next day I got written up for being " too nice " and " too slow " with the cancer patients! Here is an article that was sent to me by a highly respected natural scientist and a personal friend, Dr. James DeMeo: http://environment.independent.co.uk/lifestyle/article2944417.ece Germany warns citizens to avoid using Wi-Fi Environment Ministry's verdict on the health risks from wireless technology puts the British government to shame. By Geoffrey Lean Published: 09 September 2007 People should avoid using Wi-Fi wherever possible because of the risks it may pose to health, the German government has said. Its surprise ruling - the most damning made by any government on the fast-growing technology - will shake the industry and British ministers, and vindicates the questions that The Independent on Sunday has been raising over the past four months. And Germany's official radiation protection body also advises its citizens to use landlines instead of mobile phones, and warns of " electrosmog " from a wide range of other everyday products, from baby monitors to electric blankets. The German government's ruling - which contrasts sharply with the unquestioning promotion of the technology by British officials - was made in response to a series of questions by Green members of the Bundestag, Germany's parliament. The Environment Ministry recommended that people should keep their exposure to radiation from Wi-Fi " as low as possible " by choosing " conventional wired connections " . It added that it is " actively informing people about possibilities for reducing personal exposure " . Its actions will provide vital support for Sir William Stewart, Britain's official health protection watchdog, who has produced two reports calling for caution in using mobile phones and who has also called for a review of the use of Wi-Fi in schools. His warnings have so far been ignored by ministers and even played down by the Health Protection Agency, which he chairs. By contrast the agency's German equivalent - the Federal Office for Radiation Protection - is leading the calls for caution. Florian Emrich, for the office, says Wi-Fi should be avoided " because people receive exposures from many sources and because it is a new technology and all the research into its health effects has not yet been carried out " . +++++ And for a nice collection of meters to measure such electro-smog, see: http://www.naturalenergyworks.net Aurore Adamkiewicz, ND www.beyondnaturalmedicine.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
