The rollout of 5G in New Zealand will adversely affect every family’s: health, security, privacy, & property values. We demand a moratorium on 5G in New Zealand until conflict-free research shows us it's safe.

On the 4th of March 2020 Spark NZ and Samsung announced the following:

'Samsung Electronics today announced that it has signed a commercial agreement with Spark New Zealand to take part in building Spark’s 5G network in 2020.'

Spark NZ and Samsung confirming 5G deal!

5G microwave radiation is exponentially more intense than what we have now and require small cells resulting in greater numbers of 5G receivers.  There will be no escaping 5G’s 24/7 radiation. And this will be in addition to the wireless radiation that we are already exposed to with cell towers, cell phones, tablets, video games, Wi-Fi, baby monitors, smart meters from our homes and that of our neighbours’ wireless signals reaching us. 

We cannot just sit back and accept industry and government assurances (like they did with big tobacco, oxycodone, asbestos, mercury) We are fortunate to call New Zealand HOME and therefore we must stand up for the future generations of our families. There aren't many places like New Zealand!

Thousands of conflict-free scientists all over the world are speaking out on the dangers of 5G https://www.emfscientist.org and calling for our extremely outdated Radio Frequency (RF) safety limits to be updated.

The scientific debate about the health effects of microwave radiation is over. Microwave radiation, at levels to which we are currently exposed, adversely affects human health. Of that there is no longer any doubt.

The current debate is, “can we afford the health care costs that are likely to follow the roll out of 5G?”

Recent peer-reviewed, independent studies have confirmed that chronic low-level exposure to wireless radiation that we are already exposed to can cause serious health problems including: 
  •  anxiety                       • memory loss
  •  headaches                 • irritability
  •  insomnia                    • itchiness
  •  dizziness                    • poor concentration
  •  nausea                       • digestive issues 
  •  fatigue                        • mood disorders ie. depression
  •  heart palpitations.      • tinnitus
   
As well as chronic diseases such as:
  •  Cancer                      • Alzheimers
  •  Heart Problems         • Diabetes

Kids are especially vulnerable to the effects of wireless radiation as their skulls are thinner and their SAR (specific absorption rate) of radiation is much higher. Side note: please turn your WiFi off at night to reduce your & kids' radiation exposure.

Please contact the media to request that they run news stories to educate the public on our outdated RF safety limits and the dangers of 5G.  Spark is not the only 5G issue!

Please share this petition wherever you can.

5G is not a foregone conclusion. The time to ask our legislators is NOW.

Please take a moment to send a letter or email to your government reps. & legislators to demand a moratorium on the 5G rollout until conflict-free research can prove that 5G is safe.
