Warnings, Warnings, Warnings IT IS TIME FOR ACTION, French ministry's warnings

They governments are all covering their backs - "we told you to be careful - it's your own fault!"

That's my view.

Alasdair

I have been told by a good source that the UK HPA staff have been told to keep the lid on the mobile phone (et al) issues so that the public won't panic and cause a large problem at present to modern economies. It is someone else's problem what happens in another 10 years or so, not the current governments.



Re: Warnings, Warnings, Warnings IT IS TIME FOR ACTION, French ministry's warnings

Well, it seems that the constant warnings do have some effect (see attached EUROBAROMETER on EMF).

Alasdair,

I agree with you, "We warned you, its your fault!" However, when the brain tumor pandemic arrives (I pray I'm wrong) there is no way that the public will not be "up in arms."

Your source really paints the true picture. " . . . public won't panic and cause a large problem at present to modern economies." Translation: We can't interfere with the telecom industry's profits.

Re: Warnings, Warnings, Warnings IT IS TIME FOR ACTION, French ministry's warnings

Thank you Bernhard,

I have only taken the time to read the conclusions. I believe the following paragraph catches the sense of the conclusions.

"These average figures conceal a broad difference in attitude between EU citizens who are concerned about EMF and those who are not. Of the ‘concerned’ group, more than two-thirds (69%) feel that public bodies do not act effectively in this area, compared with just half (52%) of citizens who are ‘not concerned’."

Yes, there is vague sense of concern (here in the US as well), but there is "faith" that the public health agencies will protect the public. They will only protect industry. Sadly, governments everywhere are beholdened to the corporations, in this case the Telecom industry. It is my view that the only thing that will cause change is a pandemic of brain tumors. As I said before, I pray that my sense of a looming brain tumor pandemic is wrong.
