Looking for some advice on where to find info - preferably not the lunitic fringe of the internet Electro Magentic Frequency Radiation. its given out by electrical cables, electrical equipment, wifi routers, phones, radiating devices and natural sources. When Hand Held Radios (CB's, Walkie Talkies etc) came out people put limits on how many Watts they can broadcast at and gave safety warnings on how close to the antennae you should get etc. Similarly other RF devices. We have heard all the scary stuff ,cancer causing cell phones etc, epidemiological studies of transformers stepping down voltage on power lines and a raft of other things. Two facts I know:1 - People are effected by EMF / RF transmissions. There are some people who cant be in rooms or areas with RF, cell phones, Cell phone towers etc - it gives them headaches, ringing in the ears, sight issues, migraines etc etc. Scientifically proven. If some people are highly affected then ipso facto, we are all affected at some level .2 - When the powers that be give permission for radiating devices like laptop wireless receivers, routers etc, they keep them at a level considered safe for human use.Here is where I am wondering if it goes wrong. Primary Class Rooms under the new Learning environment have 60 kids or so in them. Next door another sixty and often a class at the other end too. Most class rooms have at least one industrial strength wireless router in them.Most kids use laptops, ipds, tablets phones etc. Lets assume that there are 60 laptops or devices working within transmission distance of a kid. The kid is surrounded by these devices 9am-3pm, 6 hours per day. Kids are growing and are more susceptible to EMF, genetic mutation, etc etc. The average kid in a class room is likely to get 30 hours per week of EMF from around sixty devices. That doesn't take into account close contact radiation like laptops on your knees, or the affect of the 5-10 visible routers within transmission distance, smart white boards, smart TVs, etc etc. and the effect of the other classes all within visible transmission distance. What does 60 times the safe limit or legal limit (ie one devices limit) do to people over time? Are there any studies? Where can you get guidelines on what constitutes safe exposure - google hasn't been much help so far. The question occurred to me standing in a cafe car park, with 12 routers visible from local shops and 3-4 cell towers within 100 meters or so of where i was standing. One is safe, but 60?
