“The current (RF) exposure standards in the US and around the world are based on the assumption that radiofrequency fields are without serious biological effects at intensities that are not adequate to cause tissue heating, The observations listed above (in his testimony) demonstrate that this assumption is simply wrong.”

“Current US standards for uncontrolled public exposure to radiofrequency radiation are about 1,000 times higher than the levels which appear to increase the risk of cancer on prolonged exposure. lt is not clear that exposure to radiofrequency electromagnetic fields is safe
at any level.”

“It is worth noting that in the case of tobacco and lung cancer, debates over whether there was a true increase in lung cancer associated with smoking raged far longer
than they should have, fomented by an active disinformation campaign of which this Congress is well aware. The dilemma of public policy when it comes to controlling and identifying the causes of cancer is profound.

If we insist we must be certain of human harm and wait for definitive evidence of such damage, we are effectively saying that we can only act to prevent future cancers, once past ones have become evident. Recalling the 70 years that it took to remove lead from paint and gasoline and the 50 years that it took to convincingly establish the link between smoking and lung cancer, I argue that we must learn from our past to do a better job of interpreting evidence of potential risk. In failing to act quickly, we subject ourselves, our children and our grandchildren to the possibility of grave harm and to living with the knowledge that with more rapid action that harm could have been averted.”

Carl Blackman, a research scientist in the Environmental Carcinogenesis Division of the EPA, regarding cell phones and cellular base stations in relation to electromagnetic fields and the possible health impact. “We just don’t know yet. The science is not in.”

World Health Organization: “Siting base stations near kindergartens, schools and playgrounds may need special consideration.” (excerpt from WHO Fact sheet N°193)

You know those fearless men who rush into burning buildings to save helpless victims? Well these are the same guys who are scared to death of cell towers.

In 2004, the International Association of Fire Fighters (IAFF) prohibited cell towers on their premises for the same reason. They stated, “We oppose the use of fire stations as base stations for towers until a study with the highest scientific merit and integrity on health effects of exposure to low intensity RF?MW radiation is conducted and it is proven that such sitings are not hazardous to the health of our members.” Perhaps they summed it up best when they stated, “…we will not tolerate our members being put in additional danger while at the station house from exposure to low-intensity radio frequency and microwave radiation from these towers and antennas. We want answers, not the biased opinions of cell phone industry groups.”
