Science and Research


There is mounting evidence worldwide, contained in reputable peer reviewed and published studies and journals, showing adverse effects from low-frequency, radiofrequency fields. These effects apply not just to humans, but to wildlife and the natural environment as well.

Governmental health, environment and wildlife protection agencies are reluctant to recognize new studies as relevant, claiming that more research is needed over an extended period of time before any protective measures need to be taken.  

There is already substantial and compelling research in this field.  In view of the unprecedented speed with which wireless technologies are being deployed and adopted, many highly respected scientists have repeatedly presented credible, insightful, brave and forward-looking evidence with minimal funding or support.  Based on results and careful observation, they are saying that strong evidence warrants caution.

Just as harm from wireless technologies has not been proven to the satisfaction of our present governments, neither have they ever been proven to be safe. Due to the fact that there are no unaffected populations left, there can be no "control" for traditional experimentation.  

Until such time as wireless technologies and infrastructure are proven to be safe, our old paradigm is sorely lacking.

Magnetite-based magnetoreception

Study: Division of Geological and Planetary Sciences, California Institute of Technology, Pasadena, California / Experimental Biology Research Group, School of Biological Sciences, University of Auckland / Marine Biology Department, Auckland Museum

"Orientation, navigation, and homing are critical traits expressed by organisms ranging from bacteria through higher vertebrates. Sensory systems that aid such behavior have provided key selective advantages to these groups over the past 4 billion years, and are highly evolved; magnetoreception is no exception. Across many species and groups of organisms, compelling evidence exists that the physical basis of this response is tiny crystals of single-domain magnetite (Fe3O4). It is the opinion of the authors that all magnetic field sensitivity in living organisms, including elasmobranch fishes, is the result of a highly evolved, finely-tuned sensory system based on singledomain, ferromagnetic crystals . . .
