ORSAA sponsored a keynote address at the Australasian Radiation Protection Conference (ARPS) conference 2024. Dr Erica Mallery-Blythe PHIRE Medical Doctors and Mr Alasdair Phillips of Powerwatch UK supported Julie’s talk using video presentations. The sponsored keynote and booth cost ORSAA $4,500, and I managed our booth for the 3 days; see attached photo. Both Julie, Erica, Alasdair and I volunteered our time. The cost of travel and accommodation was also our donation to ORSAA.
We attend these scientific conferences to get our message out there. Still, ARPANSA and the telecommunication companies often drown us out by having a much bigger budget and the commercial media in their pocket. We believe the truth will win out in the end, as it always does.
With the support of Erica and Alasdair, Julie states that long-term exposure to wireless radiation, albeit at a low level, can affect well-being and that the mechanism for health effects from these bioeffects is not just a theory but is well-founded in science.
The WHO systematic review process is currently overrun by scientists who support only the heating dogma of ICNIRP, and the abandonment of the precautionary principle when setting limits is fraught with danger and mirrors the smoking-cancer projection.
ORSAA is not anti-technology, but we believe that the ICRP principles stated in publication 103, Justification, Optimisation, and Application with exposure limitation, should be followed when setting exposure limits. This means advising consumers on the safe use of these radiating devices. The telecommunication companies and government are currently not doing this as it may affect revenue.
