Here's what to show people when they tell you that 5G won't harm your health because it's non ionising radiation.
The repeated argument used in the media and by regulatory authorities is that “non ionising radiation doesn’t harm humans”.
Dr Karl Kruszelnicki – triple j science communicator and qualified scientist, doctor and engineer – is also onboard with this argument.
“It’s non-ionising; the bottom line is it’s never been proven to cause cancer. It might sit in your skin and warm it up, but that doesn’t cause cancer.
“It’ll warm up your skin a tiny amount, but so tiny you won’t be able to measure it.”
The unfortunate truth is that this an outdated hypothesis and completely ignores current science which shows there are many non-thermal, biological effects associated with non-ionising radiation, the kind of radiation 5G technology will emit from small cells as well as large towers, right outside your house, schools and shops 24/7.
Sticking to this OUTDATED hypothesis that non-ionising radiation isn’t harmful is the epitome of cognitive dissonance when presented with such a large body of science that shows that it actually is.
So what is the difference between ionising radiation and non ionising radiation?
Here’s the old hypothesis- Non-Ionising radiation does not carry enough energy to break molecular bonds and ionise atoms. Example of non-ionising are Extremely Low Frequency (ELF) and Radio Frequency (RF) radiation (the technology 5G uses). Ionising radiation is the type of radiation that carries enough energy to break bonds between molecules and ionise atoms.
Examples of ionising radiation are found in xrays and gamma rays.
Ionising radiation is known to permanently damage biological tissues including DNA.
And as I said it has been a previously strongly held belief that non ionising radiation causes no harm to humans.
However even Samsung have released a statement that includes the following
“While RF energy does not ionize particles, large amounts can increase body temperatures and cause tissue damage. Two areas of the body, the eyes and the testes, are particularly vulnerable to RF heating because there is relatively little blood flow in them to carry away excess heat.”
Did you know that on your iPhone you can also go to Settings>General>About>Legal>RF Exposure
They recommend to reduce exposure to RF energy, use a hands-free option, such as the built-in speakerphone, the supplied headphones or other similar accessories.
However- NON-IONISING DAMAGE GOES BEYOND HEATING!!
Current safety guidelines are based on the obsolete hypothesis that heating is the only harmful effect of EMFs. As Markov and Grigoriev have stated,
“Today standards do not consider the real pollution of the environment with nonionizing radiation”. Hundreds of scientists have proven that many different kinds of acute and chronic illnesses and injuries are caused without heating (“non-thermal effect”) from radiation levels far below international guidelines. Biological effects occur even at near-zero power levels.
Despite widespread denial, the evidence that radio frequency (RF) radiation is harmful to life is already overwhelming. The accumulated clinical evidence of sick and injured human beings, experimental evidence of damage to DNA, cells and organ systems in a wide variety of plants and animals, and epidemiological evidence that the major diseases of modern civilization—cancer, heart disease and diabetes—are in large part caused by electromagnetic pollution, forms a literature base of well over 10,000 peer-reviewed studies.

As Martin L. Pall, PhD
Professor Emeritus of Biochemistry and Basic Medical Sciences Washington State University states in his 90 page book which you can read in full here https://peaceinspace.blogs.com/files/5g-emf-hazards–dr-martin-l.-pall–eu-emf2018-6-11us3.pdf
“There are many possible indirect effects that may occur, given the complexity of biology. But our situation goes way beyond that, because we know that most of the effects are produced via VGCC activation which produces, as downstream effects, the free radical breakdown products of peroxynitrite (Fig. 1, Chapter 2). Those free radical breakdown products attack DNA, proteins and other biological constituents in ways that are very similar to the ways in which ionizing radiation attack these same molecules. Ionizing radiation was shown by Arthur Compton, who won the Nobel prize in physics in 1927, for showing that ionizing radiation produces large numbers of free radicals through what has become known as Compton scattering, with those free radicals being responsible for most of the biological effects of ionizing radiation. So the often repeated industry claim that ionizing radiation is dangerous but non-ionizing radiation is not, is wrong – both of them produce similar effects mediated through free radical generation.”- Martin L Pall.
Frank Clegg- Former Head of Microsoft Canada, points out the safety standard only protects people from thermal damage that can occur through overheating, but scientists have demonstrated that radiation omitting devices can cause DNA damage without heating tissue, these are non thermal effects.
“Unfortunately the safety standards in North America and in Australia are based on this theory that’s many decades old, that if tissue doesn’t get heated, that it can’t cause harm. and that’s just out of date.. what the biologists tell us and have shown in many, many experiments and again in peer reviewed published papers- is that there is damage done at the DNA level and from a biological standpoint. Non thermal radiation can cause and does cause harm to humans.”
