Opposition to 4000 JUMBO Cell Towers Increases - Moms Across America

Aumenta la oposición a 4000 torres celulares JUMBO en Nueva York

La difusión masiva de las torres de telefonía móvil 4/5G y la tecnología inalámbrica es una importante amenaza para la salud pública que los medios de comunicación y nuestros funcionarios electos ignoran en gran medida.

Los residentes de todo el mundo deben saber que 11,600 (7,500 en 2020, 4,100 anteriormente) ya se aprobó la instalación de torres celulares pequeñas en la ciudad de Nueva York. Las 4000 torres JUMBO propuestas, como se describe a continuación, se suman a las 11,600. 10,000 han sido aprobados en Dallas, 2139 han sido instalados en Seattle, 531 en Miami, y más. Los números nacionales están creciendo de 86,00 instalado en 7,500 a 7,500 por 7,500. Mientras el mundo está distraído con COVID, nuestras ciudades están plagadas de la instalación de torres celulares que representan una amenaza constante de radiación inalámbrica dañina. La exposición a largo plazo a esta tecnología debilita nuestro sistema inmunológico y provoca muchos problemas de salud, como disfunción cerebral, náuseas, mareos, fatiga, arritmias cardíacas, problemas de fertilidad y cáncer.

Aumenta la oposición a 4000 torres celulares JUMBO en Nueva York

Recientemente, los defensores de la salud se han enterado de que 4,000 nuevas y enormes antenas 'Jumbo' 5G, en monopolios gigantes, se han propuesto para las calles de la ciudad de Nueva York en 25 códigos postales diferentes en Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, Bronx y Staten Island, comenzando en las áreas más desfavorecidas. Wireless Broadband, Inc, una organización sin fines de lucro con sede en Queens, Vecinos de Manhattan por telecomunicaciones más seguras, y otros grupos locales y nacionales están protestando.

A pesar de la creciente conciencia de riesgos biológicos y para la salud de la radiación emitida por los teléfonos celulares, los dispositivos inalámbricos y la infraestructura inalámbrica, y de las insuficiencias de la tecnología inalámbrica para cerrar la 'brecha digital' (como se afirma) o para satisfacer la creciente demanda de capacidad de banda ancha, las antenas inalámbricas en la ciudad de Nueva York todavía son subiendo rápidamente a nuestro alrededor.

Las nuevas estructuras de antenas Jumbo 5G previstas para las calles de la ciudad, cada una de las cuales contiene varias antenas en varios niveles, empiezan a plantear grandes interrogantes.

LinkNYC – Link5G Design Proposal presented by NYC Department of Information Technology & Telecommunications, CityBridge, and ZenFi.

Odette Wilkens, Esq., of Wired Broadband, Inc., says, "City officials mistakenly believe that wireless is the fastest option and the better choice. It is not."

Former FCC Chairman Tom Wheeler, and CEO for twelve years of the wireless industry association (CTIA), says "Fiber To The Premises" (FTTP) is "futureproof" technology. Indeed, in testimony to Congress, Wheeler said, "Wireless may be a last resort option in the most isolated areas, but it should not be the first resort for most of America." He said the consequence of the finite nature of the radio spectrum is that "it is not a full-fledged substitute for wired broadband" and that we need a network that is futureproofed from becoming inadequate in a few years.

Why aren't New York City officials listening? Even on aesthetics grounds alone, it's hard to understand how City officials could be considering polluting our neighborhoods with these unattractive structures, at the same time destroying peoples' hard-earned home equity with these eyesores. 

Not only is Tom Wheeler, who comes from the heart of the telecommunications industry, now championing FTTP over wireless, but also the Federal Communications Commission's (FCC) safety guidelines for Radiofrequency Radiation (RFR) have also been called into serious question recently by the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals in a historic legal case.

One of the key concerns revealed in the case is that the FCC relies on the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in setting its RFR safety guidelines. Still, the FDA, it turns out, does not evaluate RFR from cell phones, wireless devices, or infrastructure, like it does pharmaceutical drugs, RFR-emitting medical devices, and microwave ovens. This means that a federal agency has not conducted a proper assessment of the biological and health effects of RFR to justify the exposure guidelines. 

Wilkens says, "We support wired broadband on many grounds, well beyond the health issues. Fiber will always provide faster transmission speeds than any generation of wireless. The industry tends to compare the speed of one generation of wireless to another, and tech folks and government officials get excited about improvement, rather than comparing how wireless is outperformed by fiber."

According to Les Jamieson, member of NewYorkers4WiredTech.com, "If fiber is a superior technology that can offer quality service to close the 'digital ide,' protect the health, improve privacy, reduce energy usage, and not be prone to obsolescence or further costs for the City, then why are New York City officials permitting small cell antennas on utility poles, and now Jumbo 5G antennas? Given the facts, City officials should not be permitting any antennas at all."

While this article focuses on NYC being the first to initiate a JUMBO cell tower plan, it would be unwise to assume that this is the only City with this plan. The only way to know if your City is considering JUMBO towers is to ask your city commissioners. The only way to reduce the spread of wireless small cell towers or JUMBO towers is to educate your city commissioners ( or run for office) before the tech companies, and their lawyers influence them with their volumes of mistruths and paper tiger threats of lawsuits.

You can see where 5G cell antennas have already been installed near you here on this interactive map.

If you wait until a small cell antenna or JUMBO cell tower has been installed in your area, if you are extremely thorough in your appeal to your Mayor, in our experience, it could take months to have the device turned off. You may not succeed at all. During that time, the symptoms your family will likely experience, especially children, could include headaches, nosebleeds, erratic behavior, fatigue, brain fog, general inability to function, fertility damage, nausea, and eventually, an high risk of cancer. In many cases, our supporters report they need to leave their homes within 2-3 days, and when they do, the symptoms cease.

At Moms Across America, we urge our network to be proactive and prevent harm to your family. We strongly encourage you to make appointments with your city commissioners, city council, city supervisors, or school board members NOW. Give them the crucial information needed to combat the mistruths that they are being given by the Big Tech companies who are highly motivated to get cell towers installed across the nation regardless of human health risks. Just one conversation can make a huge difference and impact thousands of lives.

We hope you will be the one to make that difference.
