Why Big Telecom Ignores the Science on 5G | Dr. Kent Chamberlin | Patreon Live Event

“A technology that I had once thought was harmless, it turns out to be harmful so I’m here to tell you what that harm is.”

Dr. Kent Chamberlin is chair and a professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering in the University of New Hampshire. In this Patreon presentation, Chamberlin discusses how the telecom industry fights against any limitations to its wireless infrastructure, the FCC’s unprotective safety standards, and why our regulatory agencies don’t do more to protect the public.

Chamberlin was appointed in 2019 by the university system chancellor to serve on the New Hampshire 5G Commission. The commission was formed by legislation passed by the state assembly. The 12-person commission met for a year to review the science and to speak to outside experts.

Chamberlin said all the presenters except one provided clear evidence that wireless radiation posed a threat to human health and the environment. The presenter who did not acknowledge those risks was the presenter from the telecom industry. That presenter was also the only person paid to present to the commission.

The majority of the New Hampshire Commission voted to support 15 recommendations to the New Hampshire Governor.

A resolution to US Congress to require the FCC to commission an independent health study and review of safety limits.
Engage agencies with ecological knowledge to develop RF-radiation safety limits that will protect the trees, plants, birds, insects, and pollinators.
Under the National Environmental Policy Act, FCC should do an environmental impact statement as to the effect on New Hampshire and the country as a whole from 5G and the expansion of RF wireless technologies.
New measurement protocols needed to evaluate high data rate, signal characteristics associated with biological effects and summative effects of multiple radiation sources.
New Hampshire schools and libraries should replace Wi-Fi with hardwired connections.
Require setbacks for new wireless antennas from residences, businesses, and schools.
Cell phones and wireless devices should be equipped with updated software that stop cell phones from radiating when positioned against the body.
Support statewide deployment of fiber optic cable connectivity with wired connections inside homes.
Establish RF-radiation free zones in commercial and public buildings
New Hampshire health agencies to educate the public on minimizing RF exposure with public service announcements on radio, television, print. “Warnings concerning the newborn and young as well as pregnant women”
State should measure RFR post maps for the public.
Require 5G structures to be labeled for RFR at eye level and readable from nine feet away.
RFR signal strength measurements for cell sites should be done by independent contractors.
NH professional licensure to offer education so home inspectors can include RF intensity measurements.
Warning signs to be posted in commercial and public buildings.

The report referred to the FCC as a “captured agency with undue industry influence,” citing the Harvard Press Book “Captured Agency: How the Federal Communications Commission is Dominated by the Industries it Presumably Regulates,” which compares the wireless industry to the tobacco industry.
