Timeline: WHO Initiatives on Wireless Radio Frequency Non-ionizing Electromagnetic Field Health Effects

Timeline WHO Initiatives on Wireless Health Effects  Background: The World Health Organization (WHO) EMF Project’s last completed research review on wireless radiofrequency (RF) electromagnetic field (EMF) is dated 1993. The Project has sought to revise the monograph for over a decade. Its first attempt in 2013 was abandoned over transparency issues. In 2019, the WHO EMF Project relaunched the effort and… 

New Publication: Scientists Find WHO Cell Phone Radiation Cancer Study “Scientifically Flawed”

New Publication: WHO Cell Phone Radiation Cancer Study is “Seriously Flawed” Scientists conclude the review does not assure wireless safety, and should not be used to set public health policy    Media Contact:Joel Moskowitz PhDEmail: jmm@berkeley.edu A Letter to the Editor published in the journal Environment International by the International Commission on the Biological Effects of Electromagnetic Fields (ICBE-EMF) concludes… 

Cell Phone Radiation Reduction Solutions To Protect Health

Engineering Solutions To Mitigate Cell Phone Radiation Exposure   There are numerous hardware and software changes that can reduce exposure to cell phone radio-frequency electromagnetic radiation. Research links cell phone and wireless to numerous health effects from cancer and DNA damage to impacts on the reproductive, endocrine, immune and neurological system.     The ICBE-EMF published the peer reviewed paper “Cell… 

Cell Phone and Wireless Safety Tips on Reducing Wireless Radiation Exposure

Safety Tips to Reduce Wireless Radiation Exposure Cell phones, Wi-Fi laptops and wireless devices all emit wireless radio-frequency (RF) radiation. Scientific research indicates that current government exposure limits do not protect us. Our expert Commission advises that governments strengthen current regulations and we continue to document the science base for more protective limits. Due to the lack of adequate regulations…
