Subject line:No WiFi needed, Stop Res.425
Dear Council Members:
Please do not approve our public places being used as areas of WIFI,which harms myself and family by bathing us
in unnecessary excess wireless radiation during our time outdoors!
Please follow the Precautionary Principle as do so many other municipalities,and which is part of our Hawaii
Constitution.
WiFi is not necessary to make a phone call.
WiFi is for interne data.
People do not need to surf the web at the expense of everyone's health and well-being while in our public parks!
There are now hundreds of peer-reviewed scientific studies showing that wireless radiation is harmful.The
government's exposure guidelines were set in the 1990s and based on science from the 1980s.
Hardly anyone even own a cellphone in the 1980s.
Despite a huge body of subsequent scientific evidence,the FCC has yet to update these guidelines,which are among
the least protective in the world.
This is extremely concerning when it comes to our children,whose small,developing bodies make them extra
vulnerable to the effects of wireless radiation,which researchers have documented as various cancers,reproductive
problems,DNA damage,etc.
There are many places to view this evidence,including for example,herer:

Thank you,
