CITIZENS FOR SAFE TECHNOLOGY

"Electromagnetic pollution may be the most significant form of pollution human activity has produced this century, all the more dangerous because it is invisible and insensible."
Stated by Dr. Andrew Weil, M.D., prominent physician and best selling author of 8 books and internationally recognized expert on integrative medicine.

Citizens for Safe Technology is a not-for-profit educational society made up of parents, grandparents, teachers, business professionals, scientists, politicians and lawyers concerned about the exponential increase in public exposure to harmful wireless technologies.
We believe a profound urgency exists to protect the unsuspecting public, especially children, youth and pregnant mothers from unsafe wireless technologies.
Our Children Most At Risk
Around the world, scientists, doctors, health professionals and insurance agencies all agree that our new wireless technologies generate incalculable health risks. This is because damaging health effects are undeniable and scientifically shown to occur at levels thousands of times below existing public safety limits.
We are now beginning to see short-term damaging health effects from wireless radiation, which includes cell phones, cell towers, Wi-Fi/WiMax, cordless phones and other wireless/cell phone radiation devices. We don't know what the long term effects of cell phone radiation are to children. Tumors can take up to 20 years to develop, by which time treatment may have no effect. Our children are participating without our consent in a massive public health experiment. Protection of those most at risk by limiting exposure is an absolute necessity at the present time.
"If there are risks, and we think that maybe there are, then the people most likely to be affected are children, and the younger the children, the greater the danger."...Statement by Sir William Stewart, Former Chairman of the UK Health Protection Agency under Tony Blair
Evidence in medical science continues to mount that radiation from wireless cellular technology produces dangerous and damaging health effects. The time for action is now. The lives of our children could depend on it.
We are fully supportive of the use of computers in learning environments, but not at the expense of the health of students and staff. We do not believe Wi-Fi in schools is safe or necessary. Schools, parents and staff are often unaware of the enormous number of scientific studies which clearly demonstrate a health risk from wireless technologies, especially to children. Cost and convenience should not be put ahead of children's health.
We agree with thousands of scientists and doctors who now believe and assert in documented research studies that Wi-Fi and its related technologies are NOT SAFE. We call upon all concerned parents and individuals to safeguard children at school by demanding hard wiring of computer network connections.
Our goal is to raise awareness of this problem so that the public is empowered to protect themselves and their children while demanding reduced exposure to unsafe technologies.
“Catastrophic trouble lies ahead if corrective steps are not taken to stem the tide of danger of wireless technology…..The expanding telecommunications and Internet industries have perpetrated a dangerous fraud upon the public, withholding information that would expose the risk.”
and
“Another part of the corporate strategy encourages manipulation of the consumer market, such as the effort to convince parents and teachers that Wi-Fi wireless internet access to school will improve education – with no evidence to support the claim. Ironically, the pathology associated with ICRW is consistent with learning deficiencies linked to Wi-Fi itself.”

Schools need to provide safe environments for all children.
