Over the last decades, novel wireless communication technologies, such as mobile telephones, cellular networks and Wi-Fi, have been developed at unparalleled speed. However, 5G, along with 3G and 4G, may also pose threats to human health and the environment. This article outlines the two STOA studies presented to the EU Parliament, which take stock of our present understanding of the impacts of 5G on health and the environment.

U.S. Appeals Court rules against FCC in favor of wireless safety advocates on radio frequency exposure limits
Today the dam of denial has begun to crack. A Federal appeals court ruled against the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) in favor of wireless safety advocates, This ruling represents a victory in the decades-long fight to get our government to adopt wireless radiation exposure limits that protect our health and the environment.
US$10 MILLION NISSAN LEAF ELECTROMAGNETIC RADIATION INJURY LAWSUIT FILED IN GEORGIA
A Nissan LEAF electromagnetic radiation lawsuit has been filed by a Georgia man who sued the automaker “for permanently damaging his health and for destroying his family and career, not to exceed $10 million.”
EU Report: Environmental Impacts of 5G
A literature review of effects of radio-frequency electromagnetic field exposure of non-human vertebrates, invertebrates and plants.
The Physiological and Environmental Effects of Non-Ionising Electromagnetic Radiation – Eurpopean Union
This Study focuses upon an aspect of how living organisms and humans in particular can be adversely affected by highly coherent electromagnetic fields of technological origin, in a way that is not entertained or addressed by existing Safety Guidelines – namely, through the possibility of nonthermal, frequency-specific influences of an informational nature.
European Union Presentation of the studies: ‘Health impact of 5G’ and ‘Environmental impacts of 5G’ (online event)
Over the last decades, novel wireless communication technologies, such as mobile telephones, cellular networks and Wi-Fi, have been developed at unparalled speed., 5G, along with 3G and 4G, with which it will operate in parallel for several years, may also pose threats to human health. This event will present the results of two STOA studies, which take stock of our present understanding of the impacts of 5G on health and the environment.
Lawsuit Filed Against UK Government to Stop 5G Deployment
A group of committed and concerned citizens including doctors, scientists, and engineers throughout the United Kingdom have come together to bring a lawsuit against their government for its failure to protect the health of the country’s citizens, particularly children, from 5G and wireless. The Claimants filed their lawsuit, an application for Judicial Review Proceedings, in the UK’s High Court.
Open Letter To Environmental Organizations – May 2020
arth and all living beings are under threat from the many environmental challenges we now face: Climate change, deforestation, pollution, oceanic dead zones, and so on. But one threat to all life that has largely gone unnoticed by the International Environmental Community is that of our vast and growing e-footprint from technology as well as from the associated radiofrequency microwave radiation exposures.
EU Report: The International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection: Conflicts of interest and the push for 5G
A growing number of scientists and also citizens are worried that EMFs do cause health problems. ICNIRP pretends to be scientifically neutral, and free from vested interests of the Telecom industry. We show with this study that this is ‘playing with the truth’ or simply a lie.
Australian ‘No 5G’ Political Party demands moratorium until 5G is proven safe to human health, flora, fauna and property
The Australian No 5G Political Party is now official. Our mission is to protect life and freedom by regulating wireless 5G and associated technologies, and to establish a moratorium until such technologies are proven safe to health, the environment, privacy and security.
The potential dangers of electromagnetic fields and their effect on the environment
The Assembly regrets that, despite calls for the respect of the precautionary principle and despite all the recommendations, declarations and a number of statutory and legislative advances, there is still a lack of reaction to known or emerging environmental and health risks and virtually systematic delays in adopting and implementing effective preventive measures. Waiting for high levels of scientific and clinical proof before taking action to prevent well-known risks can lead to very high health and economic costs, as was the case with asbestos, leaded petrol and tobacco.
French High Council on Climate – Controlling the Carbon Impact of 5G
The French governments High Council on Climate issued a report in December 2020 on CONTROLLING THE CARBON IMPACT OF 5G. It states that 5G will increase greenhouse gas emissions in the next decade and that a moratorium would be preferable as these new frequencies have not been subject to a prior
environmental assessment particularly in regard to 5G carbon emissions.
