Aloha,
Support the resolution 678-20 and stop the building of 5G until conclusive, non biased, studies have proven
its safety.
The health implications of being subjected to constant microwave radiation, millions of times higher than
has been shown to cause harm, is catastrophic for humans, bees, birds, animals and plants. Children, the
elderly, and autoimmune compromised are especially vulnerable.
Over 10,000 studies, dating back as far as 1906, show health implications from microwave radiation (MR),
a form of electromagnetic fields (EMFs). According to www.wearethevidence.org, the following studies
have been well known to regulators for decades:
• In 1906 Merconi conducted a radio frequency (a form of EMF) study on an island where 90% of the
bees died.
• Birds, exposed to microwave radiation from 200 yards away, went from 3.2% of their population
being unable to produce eggs to 40%.
• Frogs, exposed to microwave radiation from 140 yards away, went from a normal die off rate within
a certain time period of 40%, up to 90% after MR exposure.
• 1999 National Toxicology Program (NTP) Study ( $25 million) on 2, 3G showed clear evidence of
the causation of brain cancer and breakage of DNA at exposure levels permitted by the FCC.
• Ramazzini study confirmed the results of the NTP study at levels of MR exposure 6000 times lower,
levels equal to our street level exposure from cell towers.
• 59 million people currently have Electromagnetic Sensitivity, resulting in headaches, fatigue, chronic
illness, inability to work or live in areas with Wifi of Smart Meters. EMS is an American Disability Act
recognized disability.
• Studies show that the plants below the cell towers develop thinner, weaker stalks making them more
susceptible to fire. Fires have been started in CA towns from cell towers falling due to inclement
weather and bird nest interference.
• Fertility studies showed men who did not keep their cell phones in their pockets had 12% non-viable
sperm. Those that did put their cell phone in their pockets had 47% non-viable sperm. Ten years
ago 1 out of 10 men had viable sperm. Today, fertility clinics report 1 out of 100 men have viable
sperm.
Ido the right thing for our safety and the people of Hawaii, mahalo.
