Electro-smog - How Much Is Too Much ?

Once alerted to the threats to health, wellbeing and prospects, it is easy to get into a tail-spin over electrosmog (electro-smog) and the exposure levels to which we are all now subjected. First there is fear of the invisible and the unknown, confusion and ignorance being added to by the differing opinions and spin on the Internet and what little coverage there is in the media. Then, when it all become too much, paralysis, denial or no action at all may be the result. It can all be too overwhelming. 

Power levels are only one metric. They do not take into effect the nature of digital signals and the information carried on their pulsed modulations, any and all of which may be biologically hazardous. Neither do that take account of the compounding effects of multiple EMR sources and chemicals. The recommendations of the Bioinitiative Report are good but interpreting over 600 pages when deciding whether to use the electric cooker (hob/range) or a microwave oven is beyond most people when it comes to feeding the family. (See the Bioinitiative Report page 587 for recommendations).

But rather like knowing how many million/billion/trillion bacteria exist in a cubic metre of air, knowing precise electrosmog levels is not entirely necessary if one is determined to keep exposure As Low As Reasonably Achievable - ALARA. Later, when peoples tolerance has been all used up and they are forced to flee or turn and face ‘The Electrosmog Dragons’ in their midst, thoughts are liable to spin out of control, whether-or-not-this-is-serious-and-if-so-how-to-best-deal-with-a-new-and-invisible-threat-that-seems-to-be-everywhere….Aghhhhhhh !

Electrosmog is indeed now everywhere. At presently permitted levels it is toxic for some people and animals, if not everyone, and yes, it can kill you in time one way or another but that is insufficient reason to panic. Mould (mold), bacteria, viruses, yeasts, mildew, germs and pathogens of every shape, size and description abound on the earth and in the air and water, yet we survive.  We have evolved and adapted. We routinely adopt good practices and habits (hygiene) that serve to safeguard us from these ubiquitous invisible threats to our health and our survival.  

It’s the same with the Electrosmog Dragons. We can safely assume that levels of electromagnetic radiation are now higher than some people can tolerate everywhere we go (unless it is to a wilderness and even there, satellites and planes shoot the earth with radar). Especially where people congregate, wireless infrastructure is now in place; mobile/cellular phone signals, wi-fi, WiMax, broadcast DTV and radio - the list is virtually endless and grows every day.

There is not much you can do about avoiding the non-elective wireless stock control system in your favourite supermarket or the anti-collision radar from the cars around you on your journey there, and reducing one’s own elective exposure may not prove sufficient for some, but reducing lifetime exposure cannot hurt.

Wireless is now everywhere and your exposure to it from devices you choose is all that is in your power to control. By becoming familiar with sources you yourself have allowed into your living and working environment; smart-meters, HAN enabled appliances, wireless boiler/thermostat, cordless phone, wireless router and computer, wireless eReader, wireless games console, wireless surround-sound, video/audio repeater and on and on, you will at least be able to make choices.


And why is it important to make choices? 

Because everyone’s lifetime exposure to non-ionising radiation is rising at an unprecedented rate and in forms previously unknown in the history of every living creature on this, our one and only habitable planet.

And that’s not all. The effects of ionising radiation (Nuclear / X-Ray / Cosmic) are very similar and since WWII, Chernobyl and Fukushima, global levels continue to rise uncontrollably. Add the cyclic increase in solar activity we are experiencing today and you can perhaps see why limiting exposure when and where you can might be something to seriously consider. Radiation exposure is cumulative. That means the damage over a lifetime can exceed the body’s ability to repair itself. And we all know where that leads.

Make good choices now, while you can still make a difference in your life and that of those you care about. The truth will out and the unwilling EHS - ElectroHyperSensitive pioneers are reluctantly leading the way, because they no longer have the choices you do.

A Risky Lack of Provenance

The Englishman's home was his castle, impenetrable by all without a search warrant or so he thought. That old idea is dead, especially now that we are in the digital age. The air you breathe, the water you drink, the gas or oil you burn and of course, the electricity you use are all supplied by outside parties you trust and who should be accountable. We've mostly got along with analogue AM and FM radio and television broadcasts. Only now are concerns about these older technologies surfacing conveniently just as we 'go digital'.
How many of us, I wonder, remember the excitement of listening to one's first radio, perhaps a crystal set in the quiet under the bedclothes. Unheard of and unheard by the iPod Generation, these were radios that operated without batteries and the earpice produced its sound solely by the radio frequency energy that had been broadcast from transmitters many miles away. That's an indication of how much man-made power there was in the ether 50 years ago. Think what it must be like now.

Here's a list of just some of the many sources of wireless signals that are now allowed unhindered into our homes and over which we have no legal or constitutional recourse.

Amateur Radio Transmissions
Bluetooth Devices
Broadband
CB Radios
Central Locking
Cordless Computer Mice & Keyboards
DECT/Cordless phones
Games Consoles
Garage Openers
Home Hubs & Satellite+ Boxes
Microwave Intruder Alarm Sensors
Microwave Ovens
Mobile Phone Masts
Mobile Phones
Oil & Gas Level Sensors
Plasma TVs
Power Line Networking
Satellite Systems
Smart Meters
Video & Audio repeaters
Weather Stations
WiFi, WLAN, WiMAX
Wireless Alarm Systems
Wireless Baby Monitors
Wireless Central Heating Thermostats
Wireless Digital Photo Frames
Wireless Headphones
Wireless Multi-Media & Home Cinemas
Wireless Networking Routers
Wireless Printers
Wireless Security Cameras
Wireless Speakers
Wireless Toys

The list is endless and being added to every day. We're not talking here about your own devices, they are in addition to these that reside outside your home. Your home is under day and night Electrosmog attack whether you love the convenience and capabilities of wireless or not. People are drowning under this torrent. Who will be next? Who cares? Clearly the Health Protection Agency, The Government, the Power and Wireless Industries don't and the insurance industry won't have anything to do with it. How about the NHS and our overworked doctors and surgeons? After all, it is they who must pick up the pieces, though it will be us who ultimately pay the price.
Everything tangible you allow into your home has to have provenance if you are to trust that it is safe to let in. Wireless signals come in at will, you probably know not from where and - are they dangerous? Who's to say? in the ever increasing frequency of their arrival, after a lifetime's exposure, for children and those as yet unborn?
Whatever your opinion, theyr'e coming in anyway!
