Interests created around as lucrative Businesses

Hours art of war Cancer, leukemia, lies, ENDESA and antennas of mobile telephony Santi Benítez Is impossible to imagine these times that run without electrical energy or mobile telephony. But also it is necessary to consider that from principles of the 90 comes discussing the electrical risks that suppose for the health the layings, transforming, towers and the antennas of mobile telephony. As much it is so the World-wide Organization of Health (the WHO) has had to take part making studies, often slanted and made difficult by the interests created around as lucrative businesses as the electrical provision or the mobile telephony. One of the things that have surprised me more when doing this article is the little information that the citizen has on which they can suppose to close have electrical layings or antennas of mobile telephony. In principle, the radio frequency (RF) and the influence of electromagnetic fields (CEM) produce a heating of the human body, get to even raise the corporal temperature in a degree Celsius. As much as others they get to penetrate through the skin until a centimeter. When putting me in contact with ENDESA and the people in charge of the positioning of antennas of mobile telephony they have sent me studies that do not agree with the emitted ones by the WHO, which say very textually: ' the evidences to the date are concerning Leukemia in children. In a 2001 work group conformed by expert scientists of the Agency the International of Investigation of the Cancer of the WHO-iarc reviewed studies related to the carcinogenicidad of the electric fields and magnetic of LF. Using the standard classification of the IARC that weighs the human evidences, in animals and the evidences of laboratory, the Magnetic fields of LF were classified like possible carcinogen in humans based on studies epidemiologists of Leukemia in children ', or this: ' studies published in the year 2000 informed into which if all the studies were combined in which the magnetic field could be measured or be considered, a statistically significant association between infantile leukemia could be found and the average of electromagnetic fields.' If this is certain, and will not be I who I take the opposite to the WHO, how they allow the authorities that are outdoors placed electrical antennas or layings without no type of brake? I do not know it. What yes I know is that, to put an example, Telephone Moving bodies use the question ' You want to collaborate with Telephone Moving bodies in the introduction of the Society of the Information' like reclamation in addition to the necessity of mobile telephony for the communal property. One calculates that a person who puts an antenna of mobile telephony in her roof can gain about 7,200 euros annual. Little price seems me for the health of our children and ours. Safer forms of positioning of antennas of mobile telephony and electrical layings exist, but they suppose an investment on the part of the companies. Quite high investment if we consider that has existed a significant increase of the consumption but that the infrastructures are obsolete and there are no appearances of which they improve. Nevertheless, there is no way to understand that obsolete and dangerous technology for the health of the citizens is being used when we see that, to put an example, ENDESA it has gained 1,253 million net euros in Spain, to which there would be to add the benefits of Latin America, 270 million euros, a 221'4% more than year 2003. And Movistar Spain obtained income by operations of 3,586.9 million euros. The society of the information is necessary, but the benefits of the companies do not have to put in danger the health of the citizens. The political authorities are not either that they are of much aid. In the municipality of Santa Brígida, in the island of Great Canary, a polideportivo exists that counts on a total of 6 antennas of mobile telephony where most of the users are young. It is in a zone in which in a section of 300 meters a total of 25 patients of cancer exists. And the worse thing of everything is than these antennas are to less than 30 meters of the institute of the municipality. The rent of the space for these antennas receives the City council. Incredible. The protests of the neighbors does not seem that they are serving as much. From here my spirit for Maria Arms of the Platform Positive Energy in its fight. If you are in agreement with the positioning of an antenna of mobile telephony near your address are not demands to see the corresponding license, no almost has it. And it does not doubt in demanding the city council of the municipality that the electrical layings outdoors fulfill the norm as far as health and security.

NHS phone masts spark health fears
Cambridge Evening News
ADDENBROOKE'S Hospital has been condemned for having too many mobile phone masts on its roof.
Thirty masts and dishes are on the roof of the main ward block. The hospital says there is no risk to patients or staff from the equipment, but pressure group Mast Sanity disagrees.
Communications director, Karen Barratt, said: "Thirty is a lot of masts and, given the sensitivity of the site, on a hospital, that is completely unacceptable.
"There is increasing evidence to suggest there are serious health implications from this technology . . . they should be looking to find ways to have masts removed from the premises."
Independent mobile phone research group Powerwatch is also concerned by the number of masts.
Researcher Jean Philips said: "People in wards under the masts will probably be in the best place because emissions go out, not down. The problem will be in buildings around the ward block because emissions will go straight into the windows.
There will be a lot of buildings exposed to quite high levels of microwaves."
A hospital spokeswoman said: "We have got 30 dishes and masts up on the roof.
"That number has not grown over the last couple of years and we have not got any plans to increase that significantly in the near future.
"We follow national guidelines for any health risks and each has to have a survey done each time to show there's no risk.
It's part of our responsibility as landlord and duty of care to patients and staff."
Anti-mast campaigners say the hospital could be charging up to £100,000 a year to allow the masts to be sited there.

Ecologists denounce the "chaotic" increase of antennas of mobile telephony
Ecologists in Action denounce "chaotic" increase of antennas of mobile telephony the World-wide Day of the Telecommunications Considers necessary to approach a reform "in depth" of the General Law of SANTANDER Telecommunications, 17 May.
(EUROPE PRESS) - In the occasion of the celebration today, 17 of May, the World-wide Day of the Telecommunications, Ecologists in Action have denounced the growth and "chaotic" proliferation of stations base of mobile telephony and other infrastructures of telecommunications that, according to this organization, the uncontrolled "installation of these radioelectric networks has supposed"; a significant increase of the electromagnetic contamination and the growth of the social perception of the associated risk in these infrastructures. After emphasizing that the state legislation, done by the previous Government "and taking care of only the interests of the great operators, it has not solved of the social impact and environmental of the networks of mobile telephony", EA indicates in an official notice that have been the social mobilization and ecological the one that has forced some independent communities to establish more preventive norms and levels of most restrictive exhibition to the public. It indicates nevertheless that slope has left an European director who serves like "a real" instrument to make the development of the mobile telephony and the possible environmental affections compatible and for the public health. Ecologists in Action denounce the establishment of a "plot of the telecommunications" that has supposed a proliferation in rural means and urban of a whole series of infrastructures of antennas stations bases GSM, DCS and LMDS, repeating dipoles, antennas of high gain, picocélulas and microantennas, radio links, etc., or the new Wi-Fi systems. It notices that the installation of 55,000 new antennas stations base of mobile telephony of network UMTS is going to suppose new problems in its location and a significant increase of the electromagnetic contamination "which we are put under". It adds that to this growth it has been added, actually, a "accumulation of city-planning irregularities" that affect many facilities of mobile telephony, like the deficiency of the mandatory city-planning license; the vulneración of the peak altitude that determines municipal decrees of construction; the breach of the Spanish basic norm of protection against fires (Nbe-cpi 96) or the nonexistence of a study of load on affections to the ceilings of the buildings of the stations bases between 2,500 and 5,000 kilograms on the roofs. The REFORMATION Ecological in Action considers necessary to approach a reform "in depth" of the General Law of Telecommunications and the rights on the radioelectric space, normative -- it says -- "done to the dictation of the operators of mobile telephony". In opinion of the ecological organization, these reforms would have to contemplate aspects like "the effective" application of the principle of precaution for the possible biosanitarios effects and of principle ' ALATÁ (the minimum technically possible emission), and the establishment of a value limit of citizen exhibition below the value of 0'1 microwatts by square centimeter for the emissions of mobile telephony, until levels in which cellular changes Also do not take place pleads for the establishment of a value limit below 10 microwatts by square centimeter for the sum of odas the emissions of high frequency (radio, television, mobile telephony, radio links, antennas of radio hams, etc.); and the previous information to the installation of stations base of mobile telephony and active participation of the citizens in the local scope. It also considers that the reforms must gather a study of diverse alternative locations for the location of a station bases; a moratorium in the unfolding of the UMTS; la networks minimitation of the landscaping and environmental impacts in rural and urban means; the establishment of an urban radioelectric map that reflects the set of radioelectric emissions; and a greater control on the location of antennas and repeating dipoles in residential zones. Bet also by the creation of an inter-ministerial commission (Ministries of Health, Industria and Medio.ambiente that coordinates the unfolding of networks with criteria of prevention of the public health), with participation of the social agents and environmental organizations and the accomplishment of studies epidemiologists on populations that have been exposed to values of emission over 0'1 microwatts by square centimeter. Finally, it requests the creation of an inspection organization and pursuit of the stations bases after its installation and of a public data base as the registry of all the stations bases and its emissions, as well as by the elaboration of a code of good practices and specific campaigns against the abuse of the moving body and addictive conducts, specially between young people and adolescents.

Children win mobile mast battle
Kathimerini
English Edition - Greek Supplement of the International Herald Tribune
Athens, Friday, March 18, 2005
Schoolchildren on the island of Lesvos learned that playing truant for a cause can sometimes pay off after their repeated refusal to attend lessons because of the presence of a camouflaged mobile telephony mast near their schools led local authorities to revoke its operating license yesterday.
Some 500 pupils from three schools on the island, including a kindergarten, started skipping lessons on March 7 in protest at the location of the mast, which some scientists believe can cause severe health problems.
Backed by their parents, the children's action led to authorities cutting off power to the mast three days later, after discovering that it was illegally drawing electricity.
However, the pupils insisted they would not return to school until the mast -- which was disguised as a solar energy panel -- was removed completely. This led the Lesvos prefecture yesterday to revoke the right for the mast to operate. Meanwhile, the island's parents' association filed a lawsuit with the prosecutor demanding a probe into the circumstances under which a license was granted to erect the aerial.
