Question 18:
RE: Neurotoxicity:
The current limits on EMF/GSM-like RF exposure on the human population must be re-examined in light of the increasing use of cell phones, Wi-Fi, cell towers and small cells, smart meters, Bluetooth AirPods, 5G, and emerging 6G technologies. Children are reportedly especially vulnerable in that they absorb higher rates of RF radiation. More and more studies are confirming severe neurotoxic effects. See Neurotoxic effects of 3.5 GHz GSM-like RF exposure on cultured DRG neurons: a mechanistic insight into oxidative and apoptotic pathways. Bektas H, Seker A, Ustun R, Dogu S, 2026. The current limits relating to "heating tissue" are insufficient to protect the human population. We need to conduct specific research on the true effects of radiation on humans, animals, and any living tissue. The ever increasing levels of radiation are deleteriously affecting all of us. I request that you take immediate action to protect us from further harm and do whatever is necessary to institute truly safe limits.
