2024-05-27 Policies for limiting cell phone use in BC schools

This will be my last week of producing and mailing the Updates. Happily, someone who has dedicated years to the topic of EMFs and EHS has offered to take this job over, for which I am very grateful. Her name is Barb Payne, who is the founder and President of EPIC https://iexistworld.org/presidents-message/ . Barb will be telling you about herself and her plans officially on Friday, May 31.

1) BC’s premier has announced that all school districts must have policies in place to limit use of cell phones for the next school year, but guidance seems to be lacking. For example, Vancouver’s School Board is going to require phones to be “on silent”. What does that mean? Will it be OK if the phone vibrates?

Restricting cellphones in Vancouver schools back on board agenda

“In Vancouver, one measure being proposed would update schools’ codes of conduct for kids in Kindergarten through Grade 6 so that they “will be required to keep phones on silent and out of sight for the entire school day unless they get explicit permission from an educator,” according to the motion coming before the board.”

2) A church-affiliated school has endangered hundreds of children and staff by signing a contract that gives T-Mobile the right to add any number and type of antennae they wish. Telecoms target schools, churches and places like senior citizens homes because they know they need money. And once a contract is signed, the deed is done and difficult/impossible to undo.

School That Let T-Mobile Install 9 Cell Antennas Near Playground Locked Into 31-Year Contract

“A private school in San Diego signed a contract with T-Mobile to install hidden antennas only 20 feet above the school’s playground. Parents said they didn’t find out until a parent accidentally saw them while the school was closed for a holiday break…

Rock Church and Academy’s contract with T-Mobile — which Buckley said she has seen but is not publicly available — stipulates that the telecom company pay the church roughly $4,000 a month for using its school property….

Buckley agreed. The contract includes a series of renewal periods — but only on the side of T-Mobile. “The 31st year of the contract is the first year the Rock can get out,” she said.

The contract also gives T-Mobile permission to change or increase the number and type of antenna without the Rock’s approval, Buckley said. “The antennas can become 5G at any time.”

3) If you are considering buying something to make using your cell phone or tablet safer, or buying an RF meter, for example, EHT has provided a list of products, some with a discount and a commission to help fund EHT’s invaluable work.

“You can eliminate Wi-Fi radiation from most computers and connect to the internet as long as you have an adapter and turn all the other antennas OFF- such as Bluetooth, location, data, LTE and so on. Below are some of the adapters you can use for various products. Please check to be sure the adapter fits the make and model of your device.”

“RECOMMENDED PRODUCTS

We are asked all the time, “Do you recommend any products to reduce EMF? Where can I get those blue blocking screens for the laptop?”

In response, EHT has created a list of products that we use to lower EMF at home and in the office. What’s more — you can support Environmental Health Trust by purchasing some of the products recommended below.

EHT will receive a commission for purchases made through these links. All funds will go towards our nonprofit organization’s work protecting and promoting healthier indoor and outdoor environments everywhere.
