VALLADOLID. The judge considers illegal to install antennas of mobile
telephony in buildings of houses

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY:

The Judge Alejandro Valentin Sastre considers environmental
illegalities, in the legal arguments of both procedures, city-planning
and environmental illegalities; although in the first case, the antennas
of Telefonica in La Rondilla, is centred in the non-compliance of the
protection to the health and environment

Activity classified.

With regard to the environmental infraction, the judge considers that
the mobile telephone equipment must have license of classified activity
- with the new denominated legislation environmental license
independently of its date of installation "since if is dangerous that is
before and later, whenever is installed and in operation", emphasizes
Bocos.

REMEMBER

The protection of the health is the key of the problem

The microwave radiation into the houses affects to the children and
pregnant women during 168 hours/ week, day and night, and in the schools
the radiation affects only during 35 hours/ week.

The houses are the true health sensible zones and the schools are
politically sensible zones since they can cause public scandal.

To speak less of antennas and more of the mobile telephone. The power of
microwaves that emits the mobile telephone into the brain can be
hundreds or thousand of times higher and can alter the brain to 1.5
meters of distance and the chromosomes to 8-10 meters of distance. The
young people who use mobile phone can suffer within one decade senile
diseases.

Must be the mobile telephone activity classified?


Council accused over phone mast. Residents in Tipton claim plans for a
mobile phone mast have been approved behind their backs

Last Updated: Monday, 12 January, 2004, 12:08 GMT

Opponents are now threatening to report Sandwell Council to the Local
Government Ombudsman for giving the green light to the scheme.

Around 120 residents signed a petition against the 45ft high mast, to be
operated by the T Mobile phone network.

They claim possible radiation emitted from the mast could lead to an
increased risk of cancer in the area.

Residents say they were initially invited to nominate a representative
to debate the issue with the council.

However, they claim they then received a letter which said their
objections had been taken into account but permission had been granted
for the mast to be erected.

Residents around the Locarno Road, where the mast is to be sited, say
they will now complain to the ombudsman.


Cancer fears. The owner of Chelsea Football Club has joined protests

Football tycoon joins mast protest
The owner of Chelsea Football Club has joined protests against a phone
mast that was put up without planning permission.

Residents in the village of Rogate, West Sussex, claim engineers for O2
Airwave installed the Terrestrial Trunked Radio (Tetra) mast next to
Forge Farm on Saturday at 0200 GMT.

The mast is adjacent to the 424-acre estate of Russian tycoon and
Chelsea Chairman Roman Abramovich, at Fyning Hill.

He joined angry protesters holding a vigil and blocking access to the
mast on Monday, in an attempt to stop it being switched on.

They believe the technology used in the mast, designed to boost
emergency services' radio coverage, can cause cancer.

Another phone mast was also put up during the weekend at Bowhill Farm,
east Marden, near Chichester, before planning permission had been
issued, according to Chichester District Council.

Chichester District Council has said it is considering issuing an
injunction to stop both masts being used until planning permission is
granted and may also issue an order for them to be removed.

Cancer fears

Sam Howes, deputy chief executive, said the council took breaches of
planning control "very seriously".

Resident Norman Coleshill, 63, a retired finance worker for IBM, said Mr
Abramovich's estate manager, Dean Hall, had written to the council to
complain about the proposed siting of the mast amid concerns for the
health of staff.

Mr Coleshill said: "The local populace, particularly those with kids,
feel that there is a risk of cancer. "There are many scientists who feel
there is a danger of cancer from long-term exposure."

Susan Moore, spokeswoman for 02 Airwave, said the masts had been put up
before planning permission had been granted to meet the company's deadlines.

The Tetra radio system, which is being installed by about 29 police
forces in the UK, offers better coverage than mobile phones as well as
secure high-quality transmissions.

Invisible Danger of Electromagnetic Fields
-----------------------------------------------------
09/17/2003 15:43
The impact of electromagnetic fields causes the greatest harm to
people's health

A new information partner of PRAVDA.Ru's Ecology column, well-known
Belarussian journalist Vitaly Lipik suggests ideas how people can become
protected from emanations.

A human being introduces much negative changes into the environment. The
human body can feel some of them. For example, we can sense changes in
the air composition, distinguish bad water from good one or determine
the source of noise. We can do it with the help of the organs of senses
granted by the nature to us, but unfortunately we cannot sense changes
in the
electromagnetic field to which the human body is really very
susceptible. The planet has an electromagnetic field of its own; its
frequency is 10 hertz and all living creatures are tuned to this
frequency that determines all important processes in our life. When a
man becomes isolated from this electromagnetic field he suffers from
physical and mental deviations.

If we sum up the electromagnetic fields people have created around, the
total level of these fields will exceed the natural electromagnetic
field of the planet millions of times. The impact of a strong
electromagnetic field is accompanied with the thermal effect and may
cause overheating of the tissues. This is important that irreversible
consequences can become apparent very quickly in this case. Usage of
mobile phones causes a serious impact upon the human brain: when we
speak over mobile phones some sectors in the brain become overheated
which in its turn may provoke cancer of brain. The spinal cord and eyes
are particularly susceptible to strong electromagnetic fields. The lens
contains the white that is easily destroyed while heated; as a result of
this destruction a cataract may develop. Men's genitals also badly react
to irradiation. An impact of an electromagnetic field with the density
of over 5 megawatt per square centimeter may result in sterility and
genes mutations.

At the same time, the impact of an electromagnetic field having no
obvious thermal effect also causes negative consequences. Researches
conducted in Russia discovered the dependence of thrombosis, different
neoplasms including blood cancer upon the impact of an electromagnetic
field. Electromagnetic fields have a particularly dangerous impact upon
children's organism. Researches conducted in the USA revealed the impact
of electromagnetic fields upon the incidence of mortality and
complications in pregnancy. An electromagnetic field of over 1.6
microtesla doubles the risk of abnormal development or death of an
embryo. The impact of an electromagnetic field of 0.4 - 12 microtesla
reduces the effectiveness of people's immune system. The electromagnetic
field produced by rather harmless desk electronic clock is 2 microtesla.
Just imagine what is the electromagnetic field produced by other
domestic sources of electromagnetic field such as TV sets, computers and
vacuum cleaners. Out of the wide range of domestic appliances an
electric razor and a hair drier produce the highest electromagnetic
fields (up to 1,000 and 2,000 microtesla correspondingly).

British scientists have determined that an electromagnetic field
provokes depressions and suicidal spirits. The number of suicides
committed by people working in the electro-technical industry is 3.6
times higher than in other spheres. America's Journal of Epidemiology
reports the dependence of cardiovascular diseases upon the impact of an
electromagnetic field. Swedish researchers report that the impact of
electromagnetic fields increases the breast cancer risk among women
under fifty 7.4 times. These are just exactly the diseases that are
important problems in the modern society. This is probably the reason
why people surrounded with lots of electronic appliances often suffer
from different diseases. However this is quite obvious that humanity has
no way back as we cannot give up the comforts of civilization that we
have now. At the same time, a human being cannot be isolated from the
impact of electromagnetic fields as they have good transmissibility.

There are a number of recommendations explaining how we can reduce the
impact of electromagnetic fields; the recommendations concern mobile
phones and computers. For example, try to avoid folding of cables in
coils; don't leave cords of electric appliances in sockets; try to
change the distance between the ear and your mobile phone, switch from
ear to ear while talking over the mobile phone; use shielding cables in
living quarters. However the recommendations are not effective enough.

Designing of electric appliances with low electromagnetic fields may
somehow protect people from the impact of electromagnetic fields or will
reduce the impact, but it's actually a hard task to replace all electric
appliances everywhere. Even if they are replaced everywhere we will
still have electric mains and transmitting stations. Scientists are
working on methods to reduce the impact of electromagnetic fields upon
people. We sometimes treat like fantasy all information saying about
creation of portable devices capable of modelling an electromagnetic
field of required frequency around a man. Creation of such devices would
help people survive under conditions of the modern civilization because
people cannot feel and even don't suspect about the negative impact of
electromagnetic fields, while the daily impact of electromagnetic fields
is ruinous for people's health.

Taking a radio company to the High Court
----------------------------------------------------
For information on the situation Penny refers to below see:
http://canterbury.cyberplace.co.nz/ouruhia/

Don Maisch


Thank you - As a sufferer of electromagnetic exposure effects I greatly
appreciate the work you do. I am currently taking a radio company to the
High Court to try and get damages for the loss of use of my farm which
lies adjacent to a radio tower. This had been illegally transmitting FM
on an AM tower for 10 years. Many people and animals became ill with
identical symptoms; especially heart problems, skin, loss of balance,
ear problems, irritability, increased worm load, bone pain, memory loss,
muscular weakness and hard dry cough. Keep up the good work, Best wishes
for 2004, Sincerely Penny Hargreaves

Stop whaling!

-----------------
Our goal is to demonstrate to the Icelandic government how much whales
are worth to them alive. The Iceland tourist industry is on our side in
this battle, and we need to help them convince the Icelandic government
that a return to commercial whaling would be a costly mistake and a gash
in the reputation of a country that overall has a good environmental
record. Already the value of the pledge in tourist income to Iceland is
over $US 15 million, compared to the 3 to 4 million earned from whaling
back when Iceland last commercially hunted whales. Over 13,000 people
have pledged to visit Iceland if the government stops whaling.

Iceland is a fabulous place to watch whales, and the country's rugged
mountains, glaciers, volcanos, and pristine wilderness make it an
attractive nature tourism destination. Hope you'll join in!
