Keep Our Children’s School Technology Safe: Apply the Precautionary Principle

Keep Our Children’s School Technology Safe, It’s Time To Apply the Precautionary Principle-by a loving, concerned Fullerton mother.

There are two sides of the argument of whether or not WiFi belongs in our children’s classrooms.  Let’s remember that it is not a question of whether or not technology will be part of the student’s education, but whether it is wired or wireless (WiFi).  Wired technology is a more secure and reliable connection with virtually no safety issues.  WiFi communication is achieved with microwave electromagnetic frequency emissions that result in our children being exposed to wireless radiation in the classroom.

Those who are pushing for wireless technology stand with studies funded by the tech industry, and tech industry’s literature that attest to its safety.  This side says there are no long-term studies that say wireless radiation is harmful. They also point to FCC guidelines as the reason to claim that it is safe.

Let’s look at the FCC guidelines.  These criteria were last updated 17 years ago, in 1996.  If we think back to that time, technology was very different from today.  The use and amount of devices has grown and proliferated.  Equally significant, the guidelines ignore non-thermal biological effects, which is the safety concern with wireless radiation. Given this, it could easily be said that the FCC guidelines are antiquated and, consequently, potentially dangerous.

Those who do not want wireless radiation in their children’s classroom can point to:

More than 5000 studies: http://www.justproveit.net/studies

Letters from MDs, researchers and scientists imploring the Los Angeles Unified School District school board to opt for wired technologies:

Numerous websites (I’m still coming upon more):

Countless videos (this is not all):

There is not much we can do about antiquated FCC guidelines, and there is not much we can do about the lack of funding, which has prevented the needed long-term studies.  We can recognize there are two sides to the issue, and that we must, above all else, provide for the safety of our children.  The safety of our school technology must come first, over its method of delivery:  wired or wireless.

Recognizing the disparity of  these two viewpoints, it is imperative that we act in the best interests of the children.  To do so, we acknowledge the two sides and use the precautionary principle.  As Joel M. Moskowitz, Ph.D., Director, Center for Family and Community Health, University of California, Berkeley, in a letter dated February 8, 2013, to Los Angeles USD:

“The precautionary principle should be applied to this critical policy decision.  This principle, developed at a U.N. environmental conference in 1992 states that in the absence of scientific consensus if an action has a suspected risk of causing harm, the burden of proof it is not harmful falls on those taking the action, and all reasonable measures to reduce the risk must be taken.”

There is an “absence of scientific consensus”; there is “a suspected risk of causing harm”; the “burden of proof” rests with the side pushing wireless radiation into the classroom.  That side has not met the burden of proof that it cannot harm our children.  The “reasonable” measure is right in front of us and it will not harm our children, it is wired technology.

Let’s not risk the health of our children, let’s do the right and precautionary thing and keep safety first with our school technology.  Let’s apply the precautionary principle and use only wired technology in our schools.  The F.S.D. has a world class opportunity to do what we believe is the right thing.

PRACTICE MAKES PERFECT OR DOES IT- THE $10,000 DOLLAR QUESTION.

 

WHICH ONE OF THESE IS THE INSTRUCTION MANUAL?

I sent an email over the firm that the district hired to do the RF survey over at Acacia Elementary. I can’t make heads or tails out of those numbers because even the cheapest RF meter that I own, detects WiFi outside the building , which they couldn’t manage to detect  the first time the gang showed up at Acacia with their RENTED equipment (huge red flag).

I showed up at open house with my low end equipment, and mind you there were NOT 35  Ipads running like they supposedly had on when they did their survey, and I detected levels astronomically higher coming off of just the router in a kindergarten class with no IPads running compared to what they reported on their second visit with an even more sophisticated, $50,000 piece of RENTED equipment (huge red flag), that in reality takes a trained expert with tremendous experience to operate and to accurately measure RF levels.  O.K, lets cut to the chase gang:

I would like to know as a parent of 4 students in the FSD, how many RF emission surveys has your firm conducted over the last 20 years? As a parent of children in the FSD, I am deeply concerned with the results that you have put forth.

THIS TRAFFIC REPORT IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY YOUR HELPFUL FRIENDS AT THE FULLERTON SCHOOL DISTRICT

Move along now folks. There nothin' here for you to see.

The FSD and its lackeys say “Now move along folks. There ain’t nothin’ here for you to see.”

On July 9, 2013, thefullertoninformer.com reached a milestone after just 4 short months up and running. We logged  over 20,000 hits in a single 24 hour period with visitors from all over the world. Why are so many people looking at this site if we are all  a bunch of nut jobs?   Well if we are, then at least we are not alone and most certainly in good company. We are not some hack operation that plays an active role in  perpetuating this massive ongoing public health crisis. Sorry gang, we are not into holding the truth in unrighteousness and suppressing the evidence for and the causes of infertility and childhood diseases induced by barbaric hospital and medical procedures, petrochemical pharmaceutical poisons and  EMF microwave radiation exposures that we  clearly believe are preventable. 

There is no DONATE button on this site and there never will be. Our advice may seem cheap to some but it will always be free to all. What you read here you won’t find anywhere else and believe me folks, we are just gettin’ started.  Everyone’s 2 cents is welcome here so join the discussion.

 The best things in life are still free my friends. Won’t you join us and help us continue to get the word out?  Thanks a million.

You all have 29 minutes to spare for the kids? It is high time to get ya’ll off of the milk and onto some solid food.

APRIL FOOLS ON THE FOURTH OF JULY- THE FSD’S EMF/ RF CLASSROOM EMISSIONS REPORT

For several months now I have been patiently waiting for permission to film and record the microwave radiation level readings in the wireless classrooms at my children’s school Acacia Elementary, which was voted the number one elementary school in The O.C. by the O.C. Ragister (yes the Ragister). Well they won’t let me in to do my own readings just yet. I was told that it would be disruptive to the learning process. You know, I believe that they really weren’t kidding when the experts over at Executive Environmental got the cushy gig from the District to go in and tell us what we have all been waiting to hear. Could it have been a hack job designed to turn out what the FSD wanted to hear?

I believe that they were undergoing on the job training on the taxpayer dime when they found EMF readings that could only be found on  the inside of a Faraday cage or down and out in the Okefenokee swamp. Hey gang, get a load of this April fools joke on the Fourth of July. The FSD is way more than a day late and a dollar short on this one. I don’t know about you all but I want my money back.

acacia compared to other readings4 (4)

ACACIA’S READINGS ACTUALLY WERE REPORTED BY EXECUTIVE ENVIRONMENTAL TO BE EVEN LOWER THAN 0.01. PEAK AVERAGES WERE REPORTED TO BE IN THE RANGE OF 0.001 MICRO WATT PER SQUARE CENTIMETER AND AVERAGES WERE REPORTED TO BE IN THE 0.0000001-0.000007 RANGE-THERE IS NO WAY THEY WOULD EVEN SHOW UP ON THIS GRAPH AT THOSE LEVELS.
