Let’s work together to create a healthier, more secure online world. Switch off Wi-Fi and Bluetooth and choose safer, eco-friendly connections by embracing cabled alternatives and reducing reliance on wireless networks.
💡 Why wired internet connections matter:
- No use of harmful radiation
- Less electricity consumption
- Increased data security
Messaging will be of all times - but wireless rather a thing of the past. 🌱💻

Since the invention of radio and radar, the Earth has been increasingly exposed to radiofrequency electromagnetic fields —from early radio and television to today’s ever-expanding wireless networks.
As technology shifts toward ever-higher and more harmful frequencies, let’s remember the value of older, simpler forms of communication:
🔹 Radio is a passive receiver, emitting no signals itself.
🔹 It operates on lower frequencies, reducing exposure to harmful radiation.
🔹 It does not require constant connection to data networks.
Traditional technologies still have their place in a safer, healthier world. 📻🌍

March 8 - International Women’s Day
🌸✨ On this day, we celebrate women for their strength, although they are more vulnerable.
As our reliance on modern technology grows, so does the need to ensure its safety for all. Women’s heightened sensitivity to environmental factors, including electromagnetic fields, underscores the importance of recognizing and addressing man-made health risks.
esc-info.eu/en/europeans-for-safe-connections-calls-for-better-protection-of-women-against-microwave-radiation/
Let’s honor and support their voices in shaping a safer, more balanced future. 🌍💜
Empowered women empower change—together, we can build a world where technology supports health, equality, and well-being for all.
You woman, reduce your use of wireless!

March 14 – World Consumer Rights Day 🛍⚖️
Consumers have the right to know and the right to choose — especially when it comes to the safety of modern wireless products.
🔹 Many devices expose us to unnecessary radiofrequency radiation: smart diapers, wireless baby monitors, Bluetooth toothbrushes, smartwatches, mobile phones, and more.
🔹 People should be informed about safe usage (e.g., turning off wireless functions at night).
🔹 All wireless products should offer a cabled option and automatically disable wireless functions when connected.
💡 Awareness is power. Informed choices protect health. Let’s demand transparency and safer alternatives!

🌍🌱 April 20 – Earth Day 🌱🌍
This Earth Day, let’s look beyond plastic and pollution — our planet also needs protection from the hidden impact of digitalisation and 5G technologies.
⚠️ The rapid rollout of wireless infrastructure increases energy consumption, electromagnetic pollution, and contributes to environmental degradation.
We call for stricter regulations to protect nature from the side effects of unchecked digital growth.
Let’s choose safer, wired alternatives that are healthier for both people and the planet.
🌿 A truly green future is one that’s also low-radiation and energy-responsible.

🐝🌼 May 20 – World Bee Day 🌼🐝
Bees are essential for life on Earth—pollinating our food, supporting biodiversity, and keeping ecosystems in balance. But did you know that electromagnetic pollution from wireless technologies may be harming them?
📡 Studies suggest that exposure to radiofrequency radiation can disturb bees’ navigation, weaken their immunity, and disrupt colony behavior.
Let’s protect bees by promoting wired connections and limiting unnecessary wireless exposure in our environment.
🌍 Protecting nature means protecting the tiniest life forms too.

🧒💚 June 1 – International Children’s Day 💚🧒
Children are our future—and they deserve a safe, healthy environment to grow up in. Today, let's remember that their developing bodies and brains are particularly vulnerable to wireless radiation from mobile phones, tablets, Wi-Fi, and smart toys.
📵 Children are often surrounded by invisible sources of EMF—at home, in schools, and even while they sleep.
🎓 Parents and educators need to be informed and empowered to choose safer, wired alternatives.
Let us protect our children not only with love, but also with knowledge and conscious choices.
👉 Let's protect children from EMF pollution:
• Use cabled connections whenever possible
• Turn off Wi-Fi routers and wireless devices, especially at night
• Keep smartphones away from young children

🌍🌿 June 5 – World Environment Day 🌿🌍
On this day, we stand up for the protection of nature. Let us not forget the electromagnetic radiation from wireless technologies, the ever-increasing, invisible pollution that is affecting our environment.
📡 The rapid expansion of 5G, Wi-Fi networks, and connected devices means more antennas, more energy consumption, and more EMF exposure—for people, animals, and ecosystems.
🌱 A truly green future is wisely wired. Let’s demand sustainable digital solutions:
• Prioritize cabled connections
• Reduce unnecessary wireless infrastructure
• Choose low-radiation technologies that respect life

🌊🐚 June 8 – World Ocean Day 🐚🌊
Our vast oceans seem mysteriously untouchable, but are already under serious threat. Even the deep sea is not safe from man's digitisation.
📡 With the rise of 5G underwater and the so-called Internet of Underwater Things (IoUT), wireless technology is being introduced into marine ecosystems under the name of “Smart Oceans.”
But there is nothing smart about polluting the silence of the seas.
These technologies risk disrupting delicate ecosystems, affecting marine life that relies on natural electromagnetic and acoustic signals for navigation, communication, and survival.
🌊 Protect marine life. Say no to wireless oceans.

Pioneer Study Suggests Electrosensitivity is Biobased
The French organisation Priartem published a press release on a major scientific advance. https://www.priartem.org/Ondes-et-sante-Une-avancee.html
A biological basis for EHS has been found. Research among 26 electro-sensitives found an abnormality in the DNA repair system.
https://www.mdpi.com/1422-0067/26/10/4792
These findings of a biological basis for symptoms associated with EMF exposure should prompt authorities to adjust their policies and legislation on communication technology and electrification immediately.
From now on medical doctors should have no choice but to treat electro-sensitivity as a physical and disabling response to the environment.
More explanation will be given by the researcher in a webinar on 16 June, World EHS Day.

June 16 – International EHS Awareness Day
(Electromagnetic Hypersensitivity)
Millions of people around the world suffer from Electromagnetic Hypersensitivity (EHS)—a condition where everyday exposure to wireless radiation can cause debilitating and disabling symptoms like
🔹 headaches
🔹 fatigue
🔹 sleep disorders
🔹 cognitive issues
🔹 heart palpitations and more
Yet their condition is often ignored, dismissed, or misdiagnosed.
📡 In a world filled with ubiquitous Wi-Fi, 5G, Bluetooth, and smart devices, those with EHS have nowhere to hide.
On this day, let’s raise awareness, demand recognition, and advocate for safe, wired environments—for those affected today, and to protect everyone’s health tomorrow.
🌸Take to heart that radiation harms, cables do not.🌸
