Does Sunshine Actually Decrease Dangerous Melanoma Skin Cancers?

Sunlight exposure has been blamed for the growing incidences of melanoma skin cancers, but a review of the research paints a very different picture.

False Report used by HPA

The AGNIR (Advisory Group on Non-Ionising Radiation) has produced a report on behalf of the UK Health Protection Agency (HPA). The document is entitled ' Health Effects from Radiofrequency Electromagnetic Fields ', April 2012.

The misleading nature of the report can be illustrated by the example of male fertility. A full description can be found on http://wifiinschools.org.uk/27.html

Of the studies listed in the present report, 18 found decreased measures of male fertility or damage to sperm (78%) and 5 found no effect. If the omitted studies are included in the data then 32 found damaging effects (80%) and 8 didn t (20%). Astonishingly, the conclusion was that there remains no convincing evidence that radiofrequency fields below current guidelines have any effect on male fertility. The word 'convincing' is a very subjective one and is mentioned a lot throughout the report. The authors were not convinced by the 18 papers finding measures of decreased male fertility, but were more convinced by the 5 which had found no effect. It isn t just about numbers, considering the quality of the studies is also important. But it is hard to understand how an honest assessment of the scientific literature could possibly conclude that there remains no (convincing) evidence that radiofrequency radiation can decrease male fertility.

Sonic.net Inc. Internet Provider CEO: ''I Hate Wireless.''

*Sonic.net Inc, CEO Dane Jasper writes, on his blog:

''Wireless is magic. You point two antennas at each other over a span of miles, and broadband comes out the other end. Most of the time.

I hate wireless. Today, we sold our wireless network.''

Several years ago, Sonic had hoped to install a free public wi-fi network in Sebastopol. But after months of campaigning against Sonic?s wi-fi, the Sebastopol city council decided to terminate their contract based on health and safety risks of wireless. Sonic now states it is retiring all of their public wi-fi projects!

CEO Jasper contends the wireless is difficult and their focus is changing to wireline services, which include fiber optics!

Stop Wi-Fi City Council

I think it is worthwhile to circulate this again for those who may have missed it.

This gentleman (Andrew McAfee) is quite well spoken and does a fantastic job in his testimony here:
