1.
Until you are completely sure it is safe, decide
not to use a mobile phone held to your head. Text, use the speakerphone facility
or use an air-tube headset. If you don’t have an air-tube headset, buy one
because in an emergency, when you will likely have to talk or hold for a long
time, you will need one. Wireless headsets inject their signal into the brain
via the ear-canal and thus compound exposure.
2.
Wait a few seconds after pressing ‘Send/Off Hook’.
That way, the call-setup is likely to be completed before the transmitting
antenna is near to the delicate tissues of your brain, eyes and face.
3.
If you still choose to hold a mobile phone to
your head, obey the manufacturers instructions and hold the phone the required
distance away from your ear (typically about 20mm).
4.
Do not carry a mobile phone on your body or near
an infant’s head e.g. in a handbag on the back of a push-chair. Mobiles wirelessly
communicate with their networks the whole time they are on. Smart-phones
enabled as relays for other smart-phones are never off.
5.
Children, with their smaller heads, developing
brains, immature immune systems and longer anticipated lifetime exposures are
at greater risk from all types of electro-smog.
Be safe and act responsibly around them.
6.
Mobile phones in poor reception areas such as lifts,
underground car parks, vehicles and especially planes and within insulated
office blocks and homes have to increase their transmitting power. Typically
70% of the radiated microwave energy goes into the user’s head. Simply wait
till you are in a good reception area.
7.
Do away with cordless phones and wireless baby
monitors at home and at work. They emit a constant stream of pulsed digital
microwave radiation, often close to where people and babies spend a significant
proportion of their time.
8.
Never sleep with a switched-on mobile phone in
the same room. Do not use your phone as an alarm clock. The first thing it does
upon waking is contact its network and subject you to your first blast of
microwave radiation of the day - before you are even awake!
9.
Never place a laptop or tablet computer in your
lap. Never hold a wirelessly enabled device such as an e-reader or games
controller close to your abdomen.
10.
Do not stay in the same room as an operating
microwave oven. Never use one to heat
plates or other low-water-content items as microwave leakage increases
significantly.
11.
Do not stand next to electric cookers
(particularly induction hobs), central heating/hot water boilers or pumps,
immersion heaters or vacuum cleaners when they are on.
12.
Unplug electric blankets and devices
normally left on standby, such as set-top-boxes and satellite systems, when not
in use.
…and learn what it takes to remain safe in the
electromagnetic landscape in which you now live.
