WHAT IS TO BE DONE?
Taking on the federal government and the telecommunications industry is a daunting task. Nevertheless, it is one that must be undertaken for the sake of our health, our lives, our children, and our pets.
On an individual level, several things have been recommended.
But be wary!
There are numerous items for sale on the internet that promise to protect people from the harmful effects of ionizing radiation. Most of them are scams that do nothing except enrich the manufacturers and snake-oil salespeople.
Also, many people suggest using window shields and bed canopies, which are supposed to significantly reduce one's exposure to radiation. Not only are these items extremely expensive (a bed canopy costs between 12 and 1500 dollars and the shields to put on windows can cost several hundred), but several experts warn against them because they may reduce the connection quality, which could actually cause cell phones to transmit at a higher output. Some people suggest taking extra supplements, such as N-acetyl cysteine plus vitamins C and D. Shiitake mushrooms have also been recommended by clinical nutritionists. However, all of these things are extremely expensive (the mushrooms alone sell for about twelve dollars per pound). And no one knows for sure just how effective all that stuff really is when we're surrounded by dangerous levels of radiation.
Of course, you can limit your cell-phone usage and not give wireless devices to children, as well as using a head phone, thereby keeping the phone away from your ear. You can text more than you talk. The worst problems, though, are those antennas, because the exposure is totally involuntary and constant.
Some wags suggest that people move, because if you're within a quarter of a mile of an antenna, you're in the danger zone. Of course, the closer you are the more adversely you're likely to be affected.
Well, if you live in a densely populated city like New York, you will probably be in the danger zone. If I were to move, I would have to pay at least a thousand dollars per month more than I am currently paying, and I would probably have to put up with the same rotten conditions with cell-phone antennas nearby.
So what can we do?
