[Tidbits] Massive Bee Dieoff: EMF Suspected

What's the Buzz? 

How interesting that this weekend at the Total Health Expo, a number of people
mentioned to me about the massive bee dieoff happening all over the world.
This is a SERIOUS problem, as bees do all our cross pollination, essentially they
make our food and natural medicine! With the huge amount of back ground radiation
now all around us, unseen except over time in humans when diseases like cancer
have time to develop, how is our animal kingdom affected by our uneducated
technological decisions? Obviously we are getting a heavy message now...
This morning, the only two emails in my message box were about the bees dying.
My sense is we need to ACT on this, as our policy makers only have the best interests
of industry growth and people control in mind.

PLEASE TAKE THE TIME TO EDUCATE
YOURSELF ON THIS TOPIC AND
SPREAD THE WORD! We need people to write petitions and write or call
their MPs about this!!!

Thank you very much.
For the bees,
Amandha

P.S. Even though we need awareness, education & change, PLEASE send no worry,
or negative thought out. The best way to solve this is BE LOVE. Focus on your heart
and we will heal the world. This is the ULTIMATE solution. Alternate between
BEing and DOing. It is vital! Thank you and love to you.

Are mobile phones wiping out our bees? 


Scientists claim radiation from handsets are to blame for mysterious 'colony
collapse' of bees 



By Geoffrey Lean and Harriet Shawcross

Published: 15 April 2007

Colony Collapse Disorder (CCD) occurs when a hive's inhabitants suddenly
disappear, leaving only queens, eggs and a few immature workers, like so many
apian Mary Celestes. The vanished bees are never found, but thought to die
singly far from home. The parasites, wildlife and other bees that normally
raid the honey and pollen left behind when a colony dies, refuse to go anywhere near
the abandoned hives.

The alarm was first sounded last autumn, but has now hit half of all American
states. The West Coast is thought to have lost 60 per cent of its commercial bee
population, with 70 per cent missing on the East Coast.

CCD has since spread to Germany, Switzerland, Spain, Portugal, Italy and Greece.
And last week John Chapple, one of London's biggest bee-keepers, announced that
23 of his 40 hives have been abruptly abandoned

Other apiarists have recorded losses in Scotland, Wales and north-west England,
but the Department of the Environment, Food and Rural Affairs insisted: "There
is absolutely no evidence of CCD in the UK."

The implications of the spread are alarming. Most of the world's crops depend on
pollination by bees. Albert Einstein once said that if the bees disappeared,
"man would have
only four years of life left".

No one knows why it is happening. Theories involving mites, pesticides, global
warming and GM crops have been proposed, but all have drawbacks.


German research has long shown that bees' behaviour changes near power lines.


Now a limited study at Landau University has found that bees refuse to return to
their hives when mobile phones are placed nearby. Dr Jochen Kuhn, who carried it
out, said this could provide a "hint" to a possible cause.

Dr George Carlo, who headed a massive study by the US government and mobile
phone industry of hazards from mobiles in the Nineties, said: "I am convinced
the possibility is real."

The case against handsets

Evidence of dangers to people from mobile phones is increasing. But proof is
still lacking, largely because many of the biggest perils, such as
cancer, take decades to show up.

Most research on cancer has so far proved inconclusive. But an official Finnish
study found that people who used the phones for more than 10 years were 40 per
cent more likely to get a brain tumour on the same side as they held the
handset.

Equally alarming, blue-chip Swedish research revealed that radiation from mobile
phones killed off brain cells, suggesting that today's teenagers could go senile
in the prime of their lives.

Studies in India and the US have raised the possibility that men who use mobile
phones heavily have reduced sperm counts. And, more prosaically, doctors have
identified the condition of "text thumb", a form of RSI from constant texting.

Professor Sir William Stewart, who has headed two official inquiries, warned
that children under eight should not use mobiles and made a series of safety
recommendations, largely ignored by ministers.

Millions of Bees Die - Are Electromagnetic Signals To Blame?

Categories:

Environment

Health

Bees in the US are dying of some unknown cause - millions of them are leaving their hives and do not come back. What is happening? The problem has got a name - colony collapse disorder - but no apparent cause.

GWEN, Microwave Arrays and Mobile Phone Radiation

GWEN, the Ground Wave Emergency Network, is a military communications network, consisting of some 300 transmitters dotting the whole of the continental United States. Each tower is 300-500 feet high. The stations are from 200 to 250 miles apart, so that a signal can go from coast to coast from one station to another. The official purpose is "to ensure adequate communication between command authorities and land-based strategic nuclear forces in the event of a nuclear attack on the United States mainland." But others say a hidden use of the system may be "electromagnetic mind-altering technology" by the use of ELF or Extremely Low Frequency waves.
