ICNIRP does it again - rejecting the finding of NTP and Ramzini studies that RF radiation may cause and promote cancer

The ICNIRP does it again - rejecting the finding of NTP and Ramzini studies that RF radiation may cause and promote cancer.

Microwave news report that ICNIRP has released a 8 pages note that try to explain why these studies' findings will not effect the old, non protective standard for RF exposure.
By that ICNIRP prove once again that the role it chose to play is to protect the industry from any update of the easy to follow, non protective RF exposure guidelines. These non protective guidelines were written in 1998, that don't cover health and biological damage from RF exposure and that take into consideration only immediate damage from the rise of temperature due to RF exposure.

The trick they use is repeated every once in a while when a new study find evidence that RF radiation exposure can cause or promote cancer or damage health in any other way.
They use the magic words : "inconsistent" and " unreliable"  to undermine the findings while accepting and promoting studies that show a safer picture, even if  provem worn (for example the Danish cohort study)

ICNIRP prove it self once again as the inadequate, baise  and irrelevant.

Therefore I suggest to change "ICNIRP" name to "ICNIRIP".
It is a small change that will bring more "reliability" to the group.

5G might radiate more than the non protective exposure standards.

A post in Lennart Hardell's blog about a presentation given by ericsson about the "challenge in meeting safety standards during 5G deployment".
In it's presentation (link in the post), ericsson gives an estimation of the radiation emission from 2 of it's infrastructure products (antenna), one at 3.5GHz, the other a 28GHz. 
Ericsson claim that the current ICNIRP (non protective, heat based, good for industry ) standards are going to make the deployment difficult. 
I am afraid that now the industry will put pressure to allow even less protective standards to comply with the need for faster, cheaper, easier deployment of 5G.
It is very sad that industry still think it can save money by exposing the public to more radiation, instead of developing their products and infrastructure in such a way that will reduce users and public's exposure.

"While addictions Smartphone: Is cellular radiation protection in Israel is sufficient?" - article in "The Marker"

"While addictions Smartphone: Is cellular radiation protection in Israel is sufficient?" - article in "The Marker", Israel financial news paper.

The article deals with the growing addiction to smartphones and wireless devices, with the Israeli RF safety standard that is 10% of ICNIRP and the fact that it is based on heat effect only, the growing body of scientific evidence of damage caused by RF and EMF, and the growing number of cell towers.

"No Radiation For you"

www.norad4u.com, www.4EHSByEHS.com

In the last few months I have been very busy with awareness activities inside Israel which cause me to invest less in the world wide front of EHS and EMR awareness. This is the reason that I have published, updated or created less post and pages in the last few months.

WiFI in schools in ISRAEL

Together with other activists, we are now trying to stop the deployment of WIFI in schools in Israel. The ministry of education have issues a document (together with the ministry of health and the ministry of environmental protection) that recommend on wired network in schools, but it (ministry of education) seems to be pushing WIFI to most schools in Israel. In the last year me and a group of activist, tried to communicate with the ministries, to warn them about WIFI health risk and to stop the deployment. We did have some accomplishment, like for example the introduction of the term "EHS" and other small changes into the ministries' document, and the reply of the head of the ministry of health that called to stop the deployment (while others in the health ministry only recommend to "be careful with it", but in general the WIFI deployment is still the reality. Few days before the school year  started, "The national parents association", "The forum for sane cellphone use" and Attorney (and EHS activist) Dafna Tachover , which are all represented by Attorney Michael Bach filed a law suit to the Supreme court in Jerusalem with a request to stop the WIFI deployment and use in schools.

The media in Israel also handled the subject with the following items, in some we were involved. The following are news items about WIFI in schools in ISRAEL (in Hebrew only):

·         http://www.mako.co.il/news-israel/education/Article-bc8704b4e135831017.htm - fear of dangerous levels of WIFI radiation in wireless schools, channel 2 04/07/2012

EHS and EMR health risk on the media

During the last few months we have also managed to push for EHS and EMR health risk awareness. Please see the following TV news items regarding EHS and EMR:

·         http://www.mako.co.il/news-israel/health/Article-2f059774ee14a31004.htm - General EMR and EHS , Channel 2 news - 08/10/2012

·         http://reshet.tv/Shows/Haolam_Haboker/video/.aspx?bo=11575&vml=209320 – A debate about EMR health risk, PhD. Zamir Shalita, channel 2 30/08/2012

HPA and HEALTH CANADA WIFI reports review

In addition to that I managed to review the reports about WIFI radiation issued by the HPA and HEALTH CANADA  . In both reports some of the RF levels measured were higher than what I can suffer, and higher than what I and others considered safe. Both reports refer only to the high, none biological, heat effect causing levels that are known as the ICNIRP standard or "safety code 6". For example in the HPA report the max level that was measured near a laptop was 2.2uW/cm2, and the level near the router was 8.7uW/cm2. In the  HEALTH CANADA  report the max level near a laptop was 2.34uW/cm2 and 106-77uW/cm2 next to the router.

Why the official protocol of RF measurement is no longer valid

I am working on a review of the Israeli official protocol for RF measurement and the Israeli standard for RF exposure which is based on the too high ICNIRP standard (10% of ICNIRP is the "environment standard", 100% of ICNIRP is the "Health standard", confused?). I will publish me views on the coming month.
