Dear Helen Clark- Did you know?...Because we do. /

New Zealand I congratulate you on your campaign to raise awareness about phone masts. I was diagnosed with breast cancer at the age of 38 after living 100m from a phone mast and discovered I was living in one of the many cancer clusters around phone masts. You are not alone, it is a global issue. Please go to the Radiation Research Trust website and read my PowerPoint presentation about my story which is available on the front page. Also go to the research section and view my PowerPoint presentation on phone masts which contains information and research, it is available towards the bottom of the page under the following heading: Stop Press... Eileen O'Connor - 2006 Report Cick HERE to download base station emissions and health concerns report. Eileen O'Connor to the EMF Discussion Group at the UK Health Protection Agency - 16th October, 2006 Click HERE The RRT is organising a major conference in September, 2008 which is mainly, but not exclusively, based around the microwave/mobile phone communications and health and is bringing both sides of the debate together from the highest level in the world for the first time. The Chairman for the UK Health Protection Agency, Sir William Stewart has agreed to speak along with many other world leaders from the EU, WHO, ICNIRP and the scientific leaders throughout the world voicing the precautionary approach. It is now seen as a world-class event and is due to take place at the Royal Society, London. We chose this venue as the Royal Society is the national academy of science of the UK and the Commonwealth and is at the cutting edge of scientific progress. Keep up the good work to encourage your leaders to protect public health. Kind Regards, Eileen O'Connor Radiation Research Trustee http://www.radiationresearc...

Hello, I have just seen your video on YouTube. Congratulations on a brilliant piece of work. I live in Canada where our situation is very similar to your own. Most people here don't even know there is an issue. The only reason I found out about it is because I became extremely ill and discovered I have Electro-hypersensitivity (EHS). Most of our media is owned by Rogers, one of the largest telecommunications companies, so the facts have be quashed. Other media outlets are just now starting to report on this issue..finally. We are forming a Global Coalition on Electrosmog. You may have already heard of this through the CHEEMF list serve but in case you haven't I will copy the info at the end of this e-mail. As I said I have EHS and for over a year and a half now have been house bound to avoid the debilitating effects of EMF. For those of you who also suffer from EHS, I have written a document that outlines how to mitigate EMFs and try to regain your health. It can be found at http://weepinitiative.org/l... I feel it may also demonstrate to those who do not suffer, the extent to which we have to go to live a relatively pain free existence. Feel free to use this information in anyway you feel will help your fellow citizens. It is being used by many other groups around the globe to help their members. I thank you for the excellent work you are doing to bring this issue to light and to help others. Best regards Sue Parsons Co-Director WEEP http://weepinitiative.org/ Info for the Global Coalition on Electrosmog follows: Hello everyone, A few weeks ago I sent out an email recommending that we all try to work together in a type of "coalition". My original thought was to have one for North America, but I have been getting emails from our European friends/colleagues and many want to sign up as well. For that reason, I thought I would open up the questionnaire to anyone, worldwide, who would like to complete it. It just takes a few minutes to complete and here is the link: http://www.surveymonkey.com... Once we know who is interested, what they want to achieve, what they offer in terms of skills, interests etc. to promote the issue of their choice I will circulate the results to those who participated. Those who gave permission and want to be involved either actively or passively (just receiving updates) will go on a distribution list. What I hope this collaboration will achieve is that it will help with sharing information (which is already happening via various groups like Che EMF and others). The way I see this collaboration differing from che emf and others is that I would like to set up "working groups"--groups of people who will work together for a common goal that they self-select. The purpose of the questionnaire is to identify those common goals and to get the right people together. All I would ask from the various working groups is that they keep the rest of us informed about their progress. I would like to invite those who have scientific expertise; medical/health expertise; policy expertise; legal expertise; media expertise; technical expertise (about radio frequency, electricity, ground current, antennas, power lines, etc.); monitoring expertise; funding expertise; computer expertise, etc. This grouping is meant to be all inclusive rather than divisive and includes teachers, parents, people with EHS as well as those without, etc. etc. etc. I would also like to invite those who want to actively participate in "doing" something useful to raise awareness, to help those who have EHS, to change policy, to educate the medical profession and the legal profession about this issue, to clean up schools, hospitals, homes, workplace, etc; to provide services such as monitoring and remediation. You may already be doing something in this area and just sharing what you are doing may help others with similar goals. The purpose of this coalition is primarily to facilitate the work that many of you are already doing. This issue is not going to go away soon (if ever) and it requires a determined effort to make change that will benefit us all. It is not meant to replace any other group but rather to bring groups together. I will close the questionnaire by the 1st of September and our work together will begin. Please pass this to others who may be interested in joining. Thanks, -magda ____________________________________________________ Dr. Magda Havas, B.Sc., Ph.D. Environmental and Resource Studies Program, Trent University Peterborough, ON K9J 7B8, CANADA email: mhavas@trentu.ca phone: 705-748-1011 x7882 fax: 705-748-1569

Please see enclsoed message following my posting on your film, have you got an answer to Lloyd's question? kind regards Eileen O'Connor Dear Eileen, Thanks for this post. It is very powerful and very moving. It seems the Telecommunications Industry has created worldwide coup. Governments no longer have the power to protect its citizens' health. I found it very hard to add comments because the You Tube link is in French. If there is an English You Tube link this would allow an easier way to add comments. All the best, Lloyd In a message dated 7/20/2008 6:02:32 A.M.

The citizens are pleading to the Government to listen and stop gambling with our health with regards to phone masts and stop putting profit and big business over people's health. They are calling for the Government to change the laws to protect our children at the very least. Link to film: http://www.youtube.com/watc... The film ends with the final words to the Government saying "please hear us"!

I just saw the excellent film Dear Helen Clark. It is much appreciated. I wanted to be sure you have seen our article on wireless child abuse see link below. I work with a newspaper in North Idaho and we are anxiously trying to open the eyes of American parents: http://proliberty.com/obser... Amy

I just watched the You Tube you did on the cell tower issue as it is affecting New Zealand. You borrowed a lot of footage from CWTI's film Public Exposure:DNA, Democracy and the Wireless revolution. We do not mind that at all! that is why we made the film - to help people - to get the word out. I was wondering why you did not feature the late Neil Cherry, who was an elected official in New Zealand, representing Christchurch area and worked so hard for 9 years to alert the world to the dangers of EMF. He has a webiste http://www.neilcherry.com. A radio interview he did in California that I organized is now on You tube. You can search it under Neil Cherry. Helen Clark awarde him with a "Royal Honour" in 2003 for his lidfelong professional committment to a cleaner environment, shortly before he died of motor neuron disease, which was a very fast developing disease for him. Perhaps you do not know him as we did. Neil helped so many people around the qworld ands spoke to the highest levels of government in many countries. By the way, one two of your comments in the film are not quite right. The countries who have the lowest standards based on the Precautionary Principle are Italy, Switzerland, Poland, Russia and China. Salzburg, Austria has a low standard for GSM signals. Another think you say that does not seem correct is, insurance companies are not required to cover medical care due to health effects of cell towers. Also, in addition to changing laws, we need to stop consuming and using wireless technology. The celltowers are supposedly there to provide clear signals to our phones and computers. We, as consumers have bought the marketing message and continue to support this wireless deployment. If we stop using the services, they will lose the right to say they need to install antennas to meet our service demands. this is indeed an irony that Telecom loves to talk about. How many of us own cell phones? In any case, I thank you for your excellent film. It is going all over the world today. I have received it from England and Canada and I am in the Western US. I hope we all prevail in this battle as this is a real David and Goliath situation.
Very best wishes,

Great video. Well done! I've been fighting this in the UK since 1995 but there is no way the UK government will budge. Life is cheap in the UK, but I never thought that New Zealand was as bad. Have you got Tetra yet?? A British `invention' using lethal frequencies by the emergency services and already showing terrible health effects. Watch out for this and fight it if you can. I hear that your bees are also affected by Colony Collapse Disorder. As NZ has a big honey industry, your government might be swayed by the danger signs observed in other countries Have a look at our website http://www.hese-project.org..., in particular look at the effects on Nature, the birds and bees. The German groups are better organised and you might like to join the Kompetenz Initiative we are affiliated to. We all have to join together in the fight against this massive industry Good luck.

Hi there, I fully support your protest. I am just preparing a seminar about electronic media effects, and radio-frequency radiation effects are a part of that topic. I have references to some interesting studies, particularly to Dr Neil Cherry's research? I guess you will have come across that study already. If not, please let me know, I am more than happy to send you the information. I would certainly be very interested to receive information from you concerning this topic, given you are willing to share it. What is the dateof the Wellington Parliament demonstration?
With kind regards
Hartmut Kuwilsky

I just happened to stumble across your website and I am concerned about my health too. Everytime I use my cell phone my head begins to hurt inside my scull. Not thermal pain on the ear touching the phone as most people presume I'm talking about. I've not been able to find anyone to relate to me yet. I would be able to tell you if a phone is on or off if you tested me when placing the phone next to my head.

Has anyone experienced this?

Also, here are a couple websites I believe anyone would find interesting...

"Dr. George Carlo speaks in Westminter UK to MP's and concerned citizens about the mechanism of harm from non-thermal information carrying radiowaves such as emitted from mobile phones, mobile phone masts and wi-fi.«"

Well done New Zealand - we are currently having the same battle here in Bardon, Australia as we battle Telecom who plan to put a tower opposite our school (Rainworth State School) - We are inspired !!!!

Never go there.
