THERE ARE COUNTLESS ARTICLES IN THE MEDIA TODAY ON CELL PHONES AND ALL TYPES OF ELECTROMAGNETIC RADIATION (EMF).
THESE ARE JUST A FEW of the ones we feel are the most important.
BIOINITIATIVE REPORT ON EMF RADIATION EFFECTS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
This is the most comprehensive discussion on the subject we've found yet.
A major new report on EMF (electromagnetic fields), the BioInitiative Report, has been produced and published by David Carpenter and Cindy Sage. Lou Slesin, editor of the authoritative Microwave News website, greeted it this way: August 29... An international group of researchers has thrown down the gauntlet. The BioInitiative Working Group is challenging the EMF power structure to set much stricter exposure standards for power lines, cell phones, cell towers and other sources of electromagnetic radiation. "'Business as usual' is unacceptable," says David Carpenter, the director of the Institute for Health and the Environment at New York's University of Albany, on releasing the working group's extensive report. Its general conclusion is that there are many biological effects at levels that are well below current standards and that the "existing safety limits are inadequate to protect public health." Carpenter and Cindy Sage, a consultant based in Santa Barbara, California, coordinated the BioInitiative group and edited the report.
Among the group's key recommendations are:
a 1mG limit for homes where children and/or pregnant women live;
a "precautionary limit" of 0.1μW/cm² (0.6V/m) for RF exposures where "people live, work and go to school."
These proposed levels are on the order of 1,000 times more stringent than current limits adopted by ICNIRP (International Commission on Non- Ionizing Radiation Protection) and the IEEE's ICES (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers' Interna-tional Committee on Electromagnetic Safety). All 21 sections of the report are available as free downloads from the BioInitiative website at www.bioinitiative.org. Michael Lerner, Founding Partner

CHRONIC FATIGUE SYNDROME (CFS)
AND ELECTROMAGNETIC RADIATION
EMFs from Electric Wiring & Appliances a factor in Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS)?
Pollution of all types affects the body - pollution we can smell, see and hear. One of the more controversial pollutants, however, is entirely invisible: electromagnetic fields (EMFs). While we may live a long, healthy life with no ill effects from electromagnetic fields, if we are unwell these fields could be a factor working against our recovery. In the first instance they should be kept to a minimum in order to give the body the best chance of healing. There are ways the fields can be detected and measured and steps can be taken to reduce the exposure in the home and work environment.
Article on EMF from Electric Wiring
Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Caused by EMF?
"About 70% of withdrawn children have chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) with reduced blood flow to the brain," Dr. Ogawa noted that about 80% of his CFS patients were frequent users on a daily basis of cellular phones, personal computers, TV games and other IT devices, and decided to conduct a clinical investigation into a possible cause-effect relationship of cellular phones and desktop-style personal computers to CFS, a "poorly understood condition" in which general clinical tests show no abnormalities.

DO CELL PHONES CAUSE CANCER?
The Cell Tolls for Thee
The truth about the cell-phone–cancer link and what it means for you and your kids
When Vini Khurana, PhD, an Australian (and Mayo Clinic–trained)
neurosurgeon, announced that the link between cell-phone use and cancer
was irrefutable--the result of his analysis of more than 100
studies--it set off alarm bells around the world. Use a cell phone, he
said, and you increase your risk of developing a malignant brain tumor
by two to four times.

The Bioinitiative Working Group Report
The Bioinitiative Working Group, an international coalition of scientists and public-health experts, recently published a hefty report detailing the link between non-ionizing radiation caused by a cell phone's electromagnetic fields (EMF) and cancer, DNA damage, Alzheimers, and other diseases.

Experts Revive Debate Over Cellphones and Cancer
Some doctors say the real concern is not older cell phone users, who began using phones as adults, but children who are beginning to use phones today and face a lifetime of exposure.

Testimony at Congress - Scientists debate possible cell phone link to brain cancer
Studies have indicated that long-term cell phone use may be associated with brain cancer, according to Dr. Ronald Herberman, director of the University of Pittsburgh Cancer Institute, and Dr. David Carpenter, director of Institute for Health and the Environment at University of Albany. They both testified in front of the House Subcommittee on Domestic Policy.

Using mobile phones for more than 10 years 'doubles risk of brain cancer'
Cell Phones And Wireless Dangers - The Fundamentals
Wireless internet access is set to blanket the planet, just like cell phone networks already do. There has been an explosive development - practically all during the last three decades - that brought mobile to the farthest corners of the earth. But the technology is not without danger. The microwaves that carry bits and packets of data also carry a germ of destruction. Some people - as many as 120,000 Californians - and by implication 1 million Americans - are actually unable to work as they suffer from the incapacitating influence that this cacophony in the ether has on them.

Cell Phones and Cancer, Congress Wants Answers
Top Scientists Asked to Testify Before Congress
The mere question is controversial: Could your cell phone cause cancer?
A leading cancer expert says cell phones increase the risk of brain cancer.
Years of studies have yielded conflicting results, and there is no consensus among scientists about the degree of cancer risk, if any, cell phone use could cause.
In an effort to clear up the issue, this week Congress is asking some of the nation's top doctors and scientists to testify to their findings.

CANCER AND OTHER SYMPTOMS CAUSED BY
ELECTROMAGNETIC POLLUTION
What is ElectroSensitivity?
A unhealthy sensitivity (or sensitivities) to a particular source of electricity, for example mobile phones, computers, power lines or even minor electrical equipment. Symptoms are wide-ranging and can include skin problems, headaches, fatigue, fainting, light sensitivity, heart problems and much more. Electrical HyperSensitivity is a name given to those who are severely affected.

Dr. Neil Cherry research – using a cell phone alters brain activity.
Cherry (2002) predicted that since electrical workers and physiotherapists are occupationally exposed to electromagnetic fields that are about a million times higher than the Schumann Resonance signal, would have higher rates of cancer, cardiac reproductive and neurological effects. It is scientifically sensible and proven that placing a cellular telephone next to your head, producing a signal around a billion times stronger than the Schumann Resonance signal, causes serious alterations of brain activity, leading to elevated rates of a road accidents, headaches, nausea, dizziness, loss of concentration and memory,

The Electromagnetic Radiation
Health Threat - Part I Dr. Neil Cherry
Have you thought seriously about the threat to our health posed by electromagnetic radiation, through equipment used at work, frequent use of cell phones or cordless phones, microwaves, many household appliances or overhead transmission lines? Do you think that it is too complicated and that it is best to leave it to the experts?

Can Chronic Low Levels of EMF cause health risks?
There is now a block of solid evidence supporting the view that there are health risks for those exposed to EMR. Up until the late 1980s there were about six thousand papers produced looking at the thermal effects from EMR. Very few papers looked at chronic low levels of radio frequency exposure
