Forum - Stop 5G Cell Antennas: Bad for Bees & Other Beings

Come hear why and how we'll get 5th Generation "small" cells banned in residential neighborhoods. Oppose 5G to protect our local pollinator, bird, wildlife, and human populations. A ban on 5G wireless won't impede wireless services but will:
Protect privacy and security,
Reduce unsightly and hazardous industrial clutter in our neighborhoods,
Prevent 5G's increased energy use,
Reduce harmful health impacts,
Prevent related fires,
Make our cities more resilient when disaster strikes by preserving our reliable communication network, and
Defend local sovereignty and the public interest from Big Telecom greed.

Over 20 California cities have passed measures to restrict the roll-out of 5th Generation so-called "small" cell towers.

If things proceed as Big Telecom plans, 5G will adversely affect privacy, safety, property values, weather prediction, etc. There are far superior alternatives (cable and fiber optic) which are more reliable, more secure, faster, and more affordable.

After helping the city of Berkeley adopt its Cell Phone Right to Know ordinance, he founded Wireless Radiation Education & Defense (WiRED) which is on the cusp of getting the city to adopt an ordinance restricting 5G. He is a Board Member of the International EMF (Electromagnetic Frequencies) Alliance and is also a member of the international science organizations, the Bioelectromagnetics Society, the European Bioelectromagnetics Association, and the Brain Tumor Epidemiology Consortium.


Sarah AMINOFF taught first year experience at Sonoma State University and health education at City College of SF, College for Teens. With United Educators of SF, she worked on a safer technology campaign for SF schools in collaboration with EHT's educational campaigns on children's health.
