Newsletter February-March 2017

This free newsletter is published by EMR Aware, a citizens' group based in Northern NSW Australia. It contains information on the health, environmental, and social impacts of modern electro-technologies. This is offered in the pubic interest to encourage a fair and balanced discussion of the topics at hand. Particular attention is paid to material that may not be made widely available by industry and their Government regulators.

We invite readers to consider the scientific evidence and trending opinion throughout this and prior newsletters. There seems little doubt a tobacco-style cover-up of the adverse effects of EMR is underway by those reliant upon its profitability or surveillance potential. You can help reddress this situation by forwarding a link to this web page to as many interested persons, organisations, and social media sites as possible.

Over time, web content may disappear or move. If you encounter a broken link, try a search using the article's title, or access similar content via the hosting website's home page. Anyone wishing to be notified when new editions of our newsetter become available may do so by sending an email with the word "subscribe" in the subject line.

NBN Tower - Coorabell NSW

NBN is proceeding with construction of a 50 metre tall wireless internet tower at Coorabell NSW, in spite of the view of local Councillors and the Environmental Defenders Office that a Development Application should have been lodged. Additional to this, NBN claims that because they are not a "mobile phone service provider" they are not obliged to comply with a range of industry codes intended to give the community more say in the siting of towers.
