| Public Exposure: DNA, Democracy and the Wireless Revolution
During Fall, 2000, The Council on Wireless Technology Impacts co-produced with EON International a video film documentary, which is entitled "PUBLIC EXPOSURE: DNA, Democracy and the Wireless Revolution." Ecological Options International produced this compelling, and timely 58 minute film, the first film to explore the potential health risks and social concerns triggered by the proliferation of transmitting antennas and rapid consumer adaptation to wireless communications technology. The film evaluates the state of the science and the public policies from an international citizen's rights and consumer advocacy perspective/

Additional Information
Here ís a quick film summary: CWTI tells the people what the communications industry prefers not to discuss. --- In the midst of this "wireless revolution", mounting scientific evidence shows biological harm that current government standards do not protect against. --- While there are known risks to human health from chronic or excessive exposure to these frequencies, government and industry are unresponsive to concerns raised by the people--- Critical issues which may have a direct effect on human lives and our future are not being addressed by public policy. --- Citizens, consumers and political officials are unable to get clear, factually based answers to simple questions surrounding, "Is it safe?" --- This is a clear call for citizens to take action and exercise their democratic rights to protect their family, home and community.
PUBLIC EXPOSURE features Dr. Neil Cherry, biophysicist, Lincoln University, New Zealand and the late Dr. John Goldsmith M.D.; Henry Lai, a research scientist with the Biolelectromagnetics Laboratory, University of Washington; Dr. Jerry Phillips, biochemist; Dr. Ollie Johanssen, The Swedish Karolinka Institute; and, Cindy Sage, EMF Consultant. PUBLIC EXPOSURE describes the work of citizen activists like Deb Carney and Libby Kelley who are seeking to protect their communities; an interview with a former Ericcson engineer, Per Segerback, unable to lead a normal life. due to chronic work related exposure conditions to non-ionizing radiation, which made him electrically sensitive; former California State Senator Tom Hayden, who advocates legislation to conduct a public health review of the scientific studies; and, actor Linda Evans, who describes her personal battle to oppose a cell tower near her home. The precautionary principle, " to do not harm", is called until scientific findings provide more conclusive evidence. This film will educate and empower citizens everywhere. |
