Speaker 0: Nature is vital to our existence, offering essential resources and a home for wildlife. From the air we breathe to the food we eat, our ecosystems are essential to life on Earth. But as we embrace modern conveniences, such as wireless technology, we're introducing massive amounts of electromagnetic radiation into our environment. How does this invisible toxin affect the natural world we depend on? Let's explore.
Wireless radiation, also known as radio frequency or RF radiation, is emitted by devices like cell phones, Wi Fi routers, and cell towers. It's all around us, helping us stay connected and communicate seamlessly. Both humans and animals rely on the Earth's natural electromagnetic field. The rapid expansion of wireless network technologies, like five g and the Internet of Things network, introduce new foreign electromagnetic signals, disrupting nature's delicate balance. The increasing presence of wireless radiation in our environment raises concerns about its impact on wildlife.
Birds, bees, and other creatures rely heavily on natural electromagnetic fields for navigation and communication. What happens when these fields are disrupted? Studies show that birds experience disorientation due to interference with their magnetic navigation systems. This can lead to migratory disruptions and other behavior changes. Bees, crucial pollinators in our ecosystem, are also affected.
Research indicates that exposure to wireless radiation decreases the colony strength and egg laying rates of bees. And it's not just animals and insects, plants too are affected by wireless radiation. Studies show that wireless radiation exposure damages trees, shortens plant lifespans, and contributes to rapid species decline. The underwater Internet of Things network, also known as the smart ocean, is a growing network of underwater devices and technologies that collect and transmit data beneath the ocean's surface. The wireless signals emitted by the underwater IOT network are completely audible to marine life and will become an inescapable torture chamber for ocean habitants such as dolphins and other marine mammals that use sonar and sound waves to navigate, communicate, feed, and reproduce.
Wireless networks have significantly increased the radio frequency or RF environment on Earth by at least 10 to the eighteenth times. Additionally, five g deployment and other new internet services will require tens of thousands of additional satellites to be launched into Earth's atmosphere, which has already been shown to produce bright lights in the night sky and may produce, as of yet unknown, environmental consequences. Wireless radiation is a part of our modern world, and its convenience is undeniable. However, understanding and mitigating its environmental impact is essential for the health of our planet. Together, we can ensure that our technological progress does not come at the cost of our natural world.
CHD's electromagnetic radiation and wireless team is fighting back against involuntary radiation exposure from wireless tech and the privacy invasion that comes with it.
