IARC Will Soon Reassess RF Cancer Risk —Or Maybe Not
On November 23, Elisabete Weiderpass, the Director of the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), revealed that a new assessment of the evidence linking radiofrequency (RF) radiation to cancer would likely take place in early 2024. A formal decision could come within a few months.
Calls for a new IARC evaluation have been mounting for some years following the release of two large animal studies showing elevated tumor counts after lifelong exposure to RF radiation. Many believe that the animal experiments leave the Agency little choice but to increase the cancer risk classification at least one notch to “probable” from the current “possible,” or perhaps to its highest classification, a known human carcinogen.
The Girl Scouts’ Latest Business Project: Hailing 5G Cellphone Technology
Beyond developing their camping skills, participating in a food drive to aid the hungry and donating pajamas for seniors, Girl Scouts across America this year were offered a new way to earn a special uniform patch: learning about the wonders of 5G cellphone technology and, in some cases, promoting it.
The opportunity came courtesy of Ericsson, the Swedish telecommunications giant, which sponsored the “Ericsson Limited Edition 5G & IoT” (Internet of Things) patch program. The program, still available on at least one Girl Scout website, targets all age levels, from Daisies (kindergarten-age Scouts) to Ambassadors (those in high school), with an array of activities intended to “introduce Girl Scouts to 5G and the Internet of Things.”
Australia, Canada and USA sign up to UK’s vision for a stronger 5G supply chain
Australia, Canada and the United States have backed guidelines for telecoms companies, developed by the UK, designed to build a more innovative, competitive and secure supply of equipment for telecoms networks, including for 5G and 6G.
The three nations are the first to endorse the UK’s principles for the development of Open RAN – a new breed of telecoms kit which allows providers to ‘mix and match’ solutions from multiple vendors which is not possible under current network setups.
Dunblane Telecoms Mast Plans Near Primary School Faces Objections
Plans to site a telecommunications mast next to Dunblane Primary School have sparked objections from residents and a local MSP.
Mid-Scotland and Fife regional MSP Alexander Stewart said he had been contacted by “a number of concerned constituents” about the application. The proposed 5G telecoms installation features an H3G 15-metre high street pole and additional equipment cabinets on land opposite 38 Murdoch Terrace.
The Silent Culprit in the Monarch’s Decline
Responding to colliding environmental crises of climate and biodiversity can seem overwhelmingly large and complex. Failure is not an option, but what if alongside greenhouse gases and toxic chemicals, we are missing another potent factor?
Scientists are alarmed that radio frequency radiation has ranged up to more than a quintillion times (1,000,000,000,000,000,000-fold) over historical natural ambient levels. Moreover, this “wireless” radiation for cellphones and the internet are pulsed to carry data and found to be biologically active in all species that have been adequately tested.
Huge 5G Poles May Come to 18 Upper East Side Blocks, City Says
UPPER EAST SIDE, NY — More than a dozen blocks around the Upper East Side may soon be outfitted with enormous 5G transmission poles as part of a city plan to expand internet access — alarming at least one local leader who says the poles will overwhelm their low-rise neighborhood.
The 18 potential sites for LinkNYC kiosks will be presented Wednesday to a Community Board 8 committee by the Office of Technology and Innovation, which since 2015 has been replacing the city’s old payphones with hundreds of 9-foot-tall “links,” emitting free Wi-Fi and bearing advertising on both sides.

EMF/RF/5G vs. The Penetrating Flow, to Restore One Perfect Planet’s Grace
In 2017, Blazepress compiled “20 Ridiculous Products That Should Never Have Been Made.” The list includes diet water, condiments for dogs, alcohol-free vodka, the I-potty (toilet training seat with mini touchpad), and a hairbrush with an iPhone holder.
Full Steam Ahead for 5G — And Let’s Not Even Think About the Damage to Health
ON December 13, Michael Mansfield QC will lead a case at the Royal Courts of Justice in London against the Government concerning the negative health effects of 5G and other non-ionizing (or radio-frequency) radiation. Permission to present this case was granted at the Court of Appeal earlier this year because of Government “failure to give adequate information to the public about the risks of 5G and to explain the absence of a process for investigation of any adverse health effects.”
Astronomers Worldwide Troubled by New [5G] ‘Cell Phone Towers in Space’
A sprawling new satellite built to connect directly with mobile phones on the surface is brighter than most of the stars in the night sky, according to astronomers who are calling it a threat to their work and humanity’s view of the universe.
The offending orbital object is AST SpaceMobile’s Bluewalker 3, which was launched on Sept. 10, but its 64-square-meter (693-square-foot) array of solar panels and antennas was just fully unfurled earlier this month.

No Biological Science Behind Mobile Phone Safety Testing With Guest Prof. Om Gandhi | Episode 13
Meet the man whose research inspired the SAM campaign. Om P. Gandhi, Emeritus Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering with the University of Utah, taught courses on biological effects of antennas, RF and microwave electromagnetic fields for over 50 years.
Prof. Om P. Gandhi is a world expert on how mobile phone radiation penetrates the human brain. Once a consultant to major cell phone companies, Gandhi now refuses to work with them.
List of Cell Phones Withdrawn or Updated for Deception and Endangering Users
These are now 37 different models of cell phones, identified as dangerous for the health of users, that have been either withdrawn from the French market or have had their Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) updated by software. Latest ones: the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip and the Wiko Y82.
Samsung has been given a 7,500 euros penalty
In its press release published on the 18th of November, the French National Agency of Frequencies (ANFR) revealed that it detected too important SAR values on two other cell phones. First of them, the Galaxy Z Flip from Samsung, has initially been measured with a trunk SAR of 2.05 W/kg, the regulatory level being fixed at 2 W/kg. It even raised to 3.024 W/kg after the first software update made by the company. A second one has thus been necessary to make the cell phone compliant, the trunk SAR being brought back to 1.04 W/kg. By the way, Samsung has been penalized with a 7,500 euros fine.
International Scientists, German High Schoolers: The “Thermal Threshold Theory” is Becoming Extinct
As noted by the Anasazi Foundation, “The most beautiful thing in the world is a heart that is changing.” Following the polarizations that unfolded politically and socially in the recent past, humanity is in the process of recovering the ability to hold space for opposing viewpoints. We have to bring our best selves, humbly and inclusively, to the task of alchemizing with others around deeply held beliefs during epochs of significant change.
Internationally, the idea that the only mechanism of harm is “heating” has prevailed regarding non-ionizing radiation, despite the fact that non-thermal effects have been documented. This is an Age when myths about microwave safety are proving to be false.
Hearts and minds are changing, worldwide, in regard to wireless.

Holiday Gift Giving: Think Twice About the Wireless Device
“Several days ago, I met a fit senior who told me that whenever she hikes in nature, she gets dizzy. She had apparently been hiking and became so dizzy that ‘she had to be helped out by hikers who happened to be coming by, as she was unable to go on.’”
If they hadn’t arrived, who knows what would have happened?
United Kingdom: EMF/RF/5G Resistance Part 3 of 3, History in the Making
Worldwide, governments have aligned with “the industry-tied unscientific lobby organization ICNIRP” (the International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection) to justify the safety of wireless devices and infrastructure, including towers and antennas.
The tide is turning, however, as the ICNIRP agenda is no longer being accepted carte blanche.
How the FCC Shields Cellphone Companies From Safety Concerns
The wireless industry is rolling out thousands of new transmitters amid a growing body of research that calls cellphone safety into question. Federal regulators say there’s nothing to worry about — even as they rely on standards established in 1996.
The health complaints started rolling in within weeks of the activation of a new cellphone tower in August 2020 in Pittsfield, an old factory town in Massachusetts’ Berkshire Mountains. Seventeen residents reported headaches, dizziness, insomnia or confusion. A few children had to sleep with “vomit buckets” by their beds.
