Aloha!
My name is Yoav Melamed, I am a father, massage therapist, fanner, and community
organizer.
Im writing to express my concern about the new prospect of Wifi in the public parks.
wifi is transmitting data through Radio Frequency (RF) Radiation.
RF Radiation has been shown in independent scientific studies to be harmful to cellular human
biology.
See for example and exerpt from Martin Pall, PhD:
Pall, M: t I` is ail irnpori of t 1real to t:4=1iati health, Envirortmental Research Volume
164, July 2018, Pages 40.5-416
• (Review paper) "Repeated Wi-Fi studies show that Wi-Fi causes oxidative stress,
sperm/testicular damage, neuropsychiatric effects including EEG
changes, apoptosis, cellular DNA damage, endocrine changes, and calcium
overload. Each of these effects are also caused by exposures to other microwave
frequency EMFs, with each. such effect being documented i_n. from 10 to 16
reviews." Wi.-Fi is thought to act via voltage-gated calcium channel activation.
• "Redmayne and Johansson (2015) reviewed the literature shoring that there are
age-related effects, such that young people are more sensitive to EMF effects. It
follows from these various findings that the placement of Wi-Fi into schools
around the country mai, well be a high level threat to the health of our children as
well being a threat to teachers and any very sensitive fetuses teachers may be
carrying, as well."
We need to limit our exposure to this radiation as much as possible, especially for the
protection of our keiki, who are more volnurable than adults to the effects of this radiation,
due to their smaller protective skulls and constantly developing brains.
While I understand the apeal of limitless acess to wifi internet in all the public parks,I am
concerened as the parks are now going to become places that beam radiation undiscriminantly
2417. And thats where the kids are at!
At home people can choose to turn the wife router off when not using the internet, thus
limiting their exposure to the radiation. But now with this wifi at the parks everyone will be at
harm without consent just by being in a public place.
I urgently request to abort this notion and keep public parks safe for our community and our
keiki! We must follow the precautionary principle -until it is proven safe, lets not expose our
community to this radiation!

Thank you for making a wise decision for our future generation and the health of our
community!
