We are doomed! It seems the United States Navy is planning Electronic Warfare training which will send EMFs across Washington State. It's bad enough there are so few places on this earth where cell phone towers and Wi-Fi are not found, but this is purposefully using high levels of electronic radiation to pollute an area filled with people and wildlife. How many people already have EMF sensitivities? And the studies on bats, birds, and bees showing how EMFs affect their own natural radar and directional systems? What is the fall-out of such experimentation? Has anyone in the government or in the military even considered the ramifications of this? I doubt it.
Here is the article from the November 2014 issue of the Environmental Health Bulletin (EHB) a newsletter edited by Melinda Honn from Arizona:
Briefly, the Navy is proposing to turn a
large part of Washington's Olympic Peninsula, as well as a
portion of northeastern Washington, into Electronic
Warfare training ranges. A giant antenna
resembling a house-sized golfball will be installed at the Naval Station at
Moclips, just outside the Quinault Indian Reservation on the Olympic Peninsula.
According to the data in the
Environmental Assessment, I calculate that it will have
an effective power of 5 million watts. It will be capable of sending 64
simultaneous beams at frequencies of between 2 and 18 GHz. The golfball will
only be 40 feet off the ground. In addition, three mobile,
truck-mounted antennas will be moved around between 15 different sites in the
Olympic National Forest, and three more mobile antennas will operate from 8
different locations in the Okanagan and Colville National
Forests
in northeastern Washington. They will each have a power of 100,000 watts, and will be in use 260 days a
year, 8 to 16 hours a day. The city of Forks will be directly in the line of fire,
right between three of these locations and the Pacific
Ocean. The locations in the Colville National
Forest
are next to the Colville Indian Reservation, about 70 miles orthwest of
Spokane, and one is only 3 miles from the
city of Oroville.
In addition, UHF transmitters will be added to an
existing tower on Octopus Mountain in the Olympic
Peninsula for communication with aircraft and ships.
Needless to say, the peace of the Olympic Peninsula
will be destroyed forever. The radiation in both locations will impact
predominantly native Americans.
You may voice your opinion until the end of this month:
I don't want EMF sensitivities nor do I want to be forced to live in a desert surrounded by car-eating rats secluded in a house lined with foil, but I might as well pack my bags for Snowflake now!
Damn.
