to help reduce the use of electricity during peak hours.  Some Smart Grid systems using Smart Meters have been designed to report data back to a mainframe that reviews the data.  However in the process of communi-cating with the network, many of these systems were designed to use WIFI or WIMAXnetworks.

Wireless monitoring of home utilities for a brief time each day was of concern,  but when it was discovered that some Smart Meter systems would be doing an exchange of information ever few minutes it became a big concern to those already effected by electromagnetic radiation. Considering that many people are in wireless environments and the locations during the day,   they can recover each night away from wireless.  However if all homes have WIFI Smart Meters, constant wireless communications,  it has become a big concern now that people have confirmed the effects.


Symptoms people have experienced :


difficulty sleeping -  fatigue -  headaches -  heart palpitations - difficulty concentrating – short-term memory loss  - tinnitus -  dizziness -  irritability –  nausea -

The Dark Side of 'Smart' Meters



Uploaded by  on Nov 1, 2010
In this invitational presentation to the San Francisco Tesla Society consulting engineer Rob States explains how PG&E's so-called 'smart' meters work and why they endanger health and privacy. He asks the obvious question, "Why would you trust the company that brought you Prop. 16?"

Abstract:

Both local ELF fields and far-fields of RF/MW radiation expose the whole human body and induce electric currents that flow through the body seeking “earth”. The electric current induces the formation of magnetic fields, creating the combined electromagnetic field. The induced electric currents primarily flow through the strong conduction high water organs, circulation system and bone marrow. They also flow through the electrical conduction fibres of the Central Nervous System. The oscillating electromagnetic signals damage the DNA in the exposed cells the current is flowing through, generating cell death and mutations that primarily lead to Leukaemia and Lymphoma. This explains why Leukaemia rates in Children and Adults have progressively risen over the 20th Century as more and more homes were provided with electric power. This produced living environments involving chronic low-level ELF field exposures in homes, along streets and in all building environments with electric power supplies. The unique ubiquitous exposure situation produced by this development provides a sole and confirmed source of the vast majority of the elevated cancer rates, including most of the Leukaemia/Lymphoma rates. Since both residences and work places involve chronic EM field exposures, the epidemiological studies of both are appropriately considered and the issue of no nonexposed control group needs to be dealt with. Appropriate exposure assessment is vital for determining dose-response relationships. The results of over 40 residential studies and 100 occupational studies give strong, extensive and robust evidence that ELF and RF/MW (EMR) radiation is proven to cause Leukaemia and Lymphoma in children and adults, including over 40 dose-response relationships.
