Hello again,
Do you have any raw numbers regarding the current estimate of
cellular tower sites in the US or in the US and Canada (or, really
useful, just Canada) and how many are estimated to be developed over
the next 5 years /10 years?
Also, what is the latest on the health risks posed to people
exposed to EMF radiation from tower sites? Has anything actually been
proven for or against ? THanks again for your earlier reply.
Regards, Cam Thomas
Hi again Cam
for this specific data ( how many sites operating anf planned)
you should contact the Industry Canada office in your area
they are the governing body for applications and licenses in Canada
- and you can always post such questions to EMF-L
and some one out there normally has that data
About damages or health risks you should visit the EMF-L archives
only a few days back there was a message from Austria
where they had that conference on this specific issue last year
the Salzburg Standard is based on PROVEN health problems
established in that study I wrote you and is named on my pages
To answer for a specific health hazard from towers is difficult
since on the EMF-L network ( as on CBC Undercurrents )such various
"dis-eases" have been reported that it suggests a very broad
interference depending on the person - as in so many other
"pollution" related problems some are more sensitiove than others
and in different ways, it is unfortunately not a simple clear cut
issue --- and don't forget the animals it may be of interets to read
the Vet Report from the German farm .................
You may contact the Australian EMF network for specific data
they have a very active centre there
also Dr Neil Cherry ( links / e-mail on my pages)
The available data on average radiation density in a specific area
SHOULD be availble from the Industry Canada office
from own experience I learned they rely on calculations provided to
them by the industry - not on independent assessments or
measurements - if measurement data are provided they only cover
the frequency band of the licensed transmitter
that is why I pointed yo the necessity of summing up all sources
(and that should include Computers and ......................
normally not even mentioned in any "EMF" radiation assessments
the "background noise" is currently at a level the exceeds the
Salzburg Standard in many places anyway
some say why bother since nobody does drop dead
but the long term and slow deterioration of the health in many people
is establish although not recognized.
Some on our network asked hopw many "corpses" it takes
until governments take notice
also it seems utterly disgusting if the Radituion Protection Bureau
of Canada has to ask activists where to get the studies
check the Bridlewood pages for a good index................
Greetings
Wolfgang
I will forward your question and my reply to you again to EMF-L
and hope you get more answers through the network.
(You should subscribe to this anyway to keep yourself updated)
