A new report was released today by the International EMF
Collaborative entitled:
"Cellphones and Brain Tumors:
15 Reasons for
Concern
Science, Spin and the Truth Behind Interphone"
Conclusions:
- There is a risk of brain tumors from cellphone use
- Telecom funded studies underestimate the risk of brain tumors
- Children have larger risks than adults for brain tumors.
Since I was one of the signatories, I would like to see the message of the report relayd first and foremost to families with children:
Please, Check the Personal Actions at Page 31. Inform Families and Friends Close to You.
Signatories have drafted the following actions to be implemented globally:
"We wholeheartedly echo the European Parliament’s recent call for actions. In brief they are:
• Review the scientific basis and adequacy of existing exposure limits
• Keep certain establishments free of wireless device radiation, including schools,
child day care centers, retirement homes and health care institutions.
• Fund a wide-ranging awareness campaigned aimed at young people and
children
• Increase communications to the public about the potential health hazards of
wireless devices
• Create yearly reports on electromagnetic radiation exposures, describing the
sources and actions taken to protect public health.
Extra: An additional document for those of you who want to know how this game around DNA-damage and biological effects is being played:

Would headphones and earplugs eliminate or reduce the risk of brain tumors from cellphone use? Gee, I hope so...
Thanks,
