I am submitting this comment as someone concerned about the health effects of wireless radiation as well as the effects on the environment. Personally, there have been numerous times I've been exhausted after just a few minutes on my phone, or a computer where I felt fine before using it. I've heard this same story from dozens of people.
I am writing this to urge you to adopt a regulatory profile that would significantly reduce EMF radiation. Furthermore, I also urge robust independent biophysical research to be performed to asses EMFs impacts upon humans and other living organisms.

AI Overview:
Wireless devices emit low-intensity radiofrequency (RF) radiation (a form of non-ionizing electromagnetic fields) to transmit data. Major health organizations like the World Health Organization (WHO) and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration state that current scientific evidence does not conclusively prove that low-level RF exposure causes adverse health effects or cancer. However, independent researchers, public health groups, and the International Agency for Research on Cancer note several potential and debated risks.
Main Health Risks and Studies
• Carcinogen Classification: The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) classifies radiofrequency electromagnetic fields as a Group 2B "possible carcinogen" based on limited evidence in humans and animal studies linking heavy, long-term cell phone use to certain brain tumors (such as malignant gliomas and non-malignant acoustic neuromas).
• Animal Studies & DNA Damage: The U.S. National Toxicology Program (NTP) found clear evidence of heart tumors (schwannomas) and some evidence of brain and adrenal gland tumors in male rats exposed to high levels of cell phone RF radiation, along with signs of cellular DNA damage.
• Oxidative Stress: A large portion of peer-reviewed laboratory studies indicate that low-intensity RF radiation can trigger oxidative stress (an imbalance of free radicals and antioxidants), which may lead to cellular or tissue inflammation and disrupted cell signaling.
• Symptom Reports: Some individuals report physiological symptoms—such as headaches, chronic fatigue, sleep disturbances, agitation, and tinnitus—that they attribute to close or prolonged exposure to mobile phones, Wi-Fi routers, and cellular base stations, though conditions like "electromagnetic hypersensitivity" are not formally recognized by mainstream health consensus as directly caused by EMF fields.
• Reproductive & Developmental Concerns: Certain studies point to potential drops in sperm count and motility from carrying phones in pants pockets, as well as possible developmental or behavioral impacts tied to early-life exposure.
Vulnerable Populations
• Children and Pregnant Women: Children absorb proportionally higher amounts of RF radiation into their brain tissue and bone marrow than adults because they have thinner skulls, smaller head sizes, and higher tissue water content.

I am an indivdual consumer and have been aware of the risk of exposure for many years. I have taken all steps to avoid mobiles and WIFI in my own flat but I cannot void the constant use of WIFI below me. I wear shungite to protect myself but I cannot avoid it on public transport where the radiation is increased due to so many on mobile phones in a contained space.
When the UK Government put out an annoucement that they were testing a public alarm system they must have upped the frequency as I completely lost my memory the entire day. It slowly came back to a degree but lost again when they did it a 2nd time. I am still struggling with my memory no matter what I try. If I dont take protection [ which is heavy] on public transport I arrive exhausted.
My name is Bonnie. I have noticed problems with electronics in my life over 15 years now and slowly getting worse. It is ruining my life as I've done many things over the years to improve my EMF connection. The medical doctors I've spoken to about this seemed to be not interested or just know nothing about it. I have 12 books on the subject that have helped me to some degree. I turn off electricity in my bedroom, bathroom and my office at night. I had my son disconnect the wi-fi and bluetooth and all other related wi-fi connections in my entire house. The modem is in the basement at the far end away from the bedroom. I am so aware the the neighbors out back may have pretty intense radiation from their home as they work from home.
I can start my day feeling like my old self but when I turn on the electric in the basement for the whole house it all returns. Sometimes going out for a walk does help but when I drive my 2015 version of Corolla it's not stopping me from driving as I bought a device that seems to help concentrate my brain. I don't know how much longer I can go driving, however I live alone and need my car almost every day as my husband has dementia in a facility and I visit him even though I am dizzy with brain fog. That foggy brain mixed with dizzy is what I experience for symptoms at nearly all times of day, not so much at night. It's been over 15 years at least now that I have those symptoms. Back in 2015 I had a Toyota Prius and that is when I first noticed how intense this was getting. Had to sell the car since every time I drove it I would get to tired that when I returned home or anywhere I had to lie down. That forced me to sell the car and that's how I ended up buying the Corolla Toyota as it doesn't affect me so badly even though the radiation device measures in the danger zone. Can you do something about this?
I would rather have 5G give my entire family cancer and loose all dick function then have to rely on Comcast. Take that for whatever it’s worth. Thumbs up serious.
Boise NEXRAD tower is surging huge amounts of radiation. EMF readers have maxed out near this location. Physical ailments include:
- headache
-nausea
- ringing in ears
Area is near some homes and a corrections facility. Please, investigate.
