https://ifyoulovethisplanet.org/?p=4573 A weekly radio program with Dr. Helen Caldicott Thu, 30 Apr 2026 15:58:40 +0000 https://wordpress.org/?v=2.7 hourly 1 https://ifyoulovethisplanet.org/?p=4573&cpage=1#comment-493 Christina Macpherson Sun, 05 Jun 2011 01:35:16 +0000 https://ifyoulovethisplanet.org/?p=4573#comment-493 A very timely repeat of this program, as the European Council has just decided that cell phones are a cancer risk. There is surely more to follow on this subject of electromagnetic radiation. For example. Australia's Victorian College of the Arts now has a (truly wonderful) educational site, where students all sit there with their Mac computers, and every kind of exciting Hi Tech appliance is used for education on drama, music,vdance. All with thevuse of Wi Fi - but surely, also, all bathed in electromagnetic radiation. Every Macdonalds now has WiFi. Great for the casual customer. But what about the kids who work there all day - how much electromagnetic radiation are they getting? One way to check on electromagnetic radiation is to turn on a little transistor radio - on to no station, so no sound. Then take the radio close to an electrical appliance that is switched on - microwave oven, computer, other radio - anything really. The amount of crackle that you then hear fromyour radio is a rough guide to how much electromagnetic radiation is being emitted.
