Hi -
We're following up on the National Call for Safe Technology from Friday, October 22nd, so grab your favorite beverage and make yourself comfy because there was a lot of great info exchanged!
Per the request of those on the call, here is ONLY the portion demonstrating how to submit a comment to the FCC docket: https://youtu.be/kMnincHKDio
If you'd like to also view the Q&A after the "how-to submit a comment" demo, you can skip to timestamp 16:30 on the FULL video.
For your convenience, we've attached the instructions to this email again of you can click here for the FCC How To File Document: https://wireamerica.org/fcc-comments/ (thank you, Paul G)
For information given by each of the speakers and exchanged during the call, please keep reading.
1) First, Odette Wilkens from Wired Broadband, Inc. shared some really great tips:
*Get to know your state and federal legislators and become a resource for your them on the topic of wireless radiation. Call them and form a relationship with their office to let them know you are there for when they need assistance on future decisions for this topic. Choose a day of the week to call your legislators offices to check in and give them information.
*Write letters to the editor. We know media outlets are owned by the telecommunications industry, but letters to the editor, whether it be local, state, or national papers, are great ways to be heard on this topic.
*Become a stronger speaker. Odette recommends joining Toastmasters International to learn how to properly lead a conversation/presentation and give example presentations on this topic to your Toastmasters group. This is a great way to present this topic to people who are unaware of the harms and get feedback on how to make your message and delivery stronger. You will also become a resource to your Toastmasters group members on this issue. You can find out more and
join here: https://www.toastmasters.org/
*File a comment to FCC docket 19-226. Odette followed up on Steven Diaz Gavin's recommendation to file comments on the FCC case in light that FCC lost their lawsuit with a demonstration of how to do so on the FCC website. If you have been harmed by wireless radiation, then you should file comments. Here is that "how-to" video again: https://youtu.be/kMnincHKDio
2) Dr. Magda Havas gave a great presentation about her current project going on around the world to measure how much levels of radiation are changing with the rollout of 5G infrastructure. You can find out more about Dr. Havas's work at GlobalEMF.net.
Another useful link which Dr. Havas mentioned is the www.verizon.com/coverage-map/ which seems to have the most up-to-date info on where the 5G wide band is being used in the US for this specific carrier.
The EMF Health Effects App R and Shield Your Body created also came up as well, so we'd like to share this again. This free app to help people better understand what the EMF readings on meters mean and the health risks associated with specific types of exposure. To learn more, CLICK HERE for a three minute video explaining what the EMF Health Effects App does and the reasons behind creating it, and HERE to give it a try for yourself!
If this link does not work, please copy and paste it into your browser, as that seems to be working.
Finally, it seems many are interested in formalizing this movement into a coalition of sorts. We continue to get questions about a name, mission statement, and website, however we are gauging our decisions based on your feedback. To that end, we are asking for ideas from you for names. Please feel free to respond to this email with ideas for names and ways this group can be the most helpful for our movement.
Ok, that's it for now - we hope you have a great week!
Sincerely,
Jenny DeMarco
