WiFi in Schools Australia: Precautionary Approach

http://www.wifi-in-schools-australia.org/p/page-2.html

What is a precautionary approach? When an action or policy carries the risk of harm to human health, even if there is some scientific uncertainty about the cause and effect, precautionary measures should be taken. We need to take responsible measures to reduce exposure to EMR until research demonstrates conclusive results. Although there is a growing body of evidence that shows biological effects at levels well below the current limits, there has been an ongoing debate and disagreement among scientists.

WiFi in Schools Australia: Safety Standards

http://www.wifi-in-schools-australia.org/p/emf-safety-standards.html

Australian Safety Standards for RF wireless devices:. Wireless devices used for communications purposes, such as WiFi are regulated by ACMA and must comply with the ACMA Radiocommunications (Electromagnetic Radiation-Human Exposure) Standard 2003. This ACMA standard stipulates. That the level of emissions from a transmitter at places accessible to the general public must follow the Australian Radiation Protection and Nuclear Safety Agency (ARPANSA) RF Standard. The ARPANSA RF Standard. At present schools...

WiFi in Schools Australia: Australia

http://www.wifi-in-schools-australia.org/p/australia.html

There are a growing number of informed parent groups from states across Australia that are working independently within their school communities to raise awareness on this issue. Their efforts to date have included trying to establish who is responsible for mandating wireless technologies, who will take responsibility for long-term health implications, and promoting precautionary measures within their schools. There is a general lack of awareness about the possible long-term health implications. The Stat...

http://www.wifi-in-schools-australia.org/p/blog-page_27.html

WiFi is a wireless technology that allows devices like computers, tablets and smart phones to exchange data wirelessly to a computer network - the data is transferred via microwave electromagnetic radiation ( EMR. Rather than being carried through wires. WiFi uses microwaves in the 2.4, 3.6 and 5 GHz frequency range, the same as cordless phones and microwave ovens. However, microwave ovens use a lot more power inside a shielded oven. Can reflect, refract and absorb these signals. The disadvantages of WiFi.

Governments and Authorities Around the World. Countries like Switzerland, Italy, France, Austria, Luxembourg, Bulgaria, Poland, Hungary, Israel, Russia and China have set exposure limits 100 to 10,000 times less than Australia. This is because they recognise that there can be non-thermal biological effects from electromagnetic radiation at levels below the current exposure limits that we have in Australia. The Israeli Ministry Of Education has issue new guidelines. The French National Assembly. After the...

WiFi in Schools Australia: Scientific Evidence

http://www.wifi-in-schools-australia.org/p/scientific-evidence.html

As highlighted by the Council of Europe. There have been scientific and medical studies since the 1930s which has revealed biological effects from radio frequencies and microwaves from radar. The late New Zealand physicist and meta- analyst Dr.Neil Cherry. Studied over 600 researchers worldwide. He was surprised to learn how much published science existed since 1959 which showed damage to cellular DNA and cell function, reduced melatonin, increased brain cancer, etc at levels below current safety limits.
