A global movement challenging the increasing presence of electromagnetic (EMF)/ radiofrequency (RF) radioactive contamination via “smart” gadgets and meters, antennas, Wi-Fi, and WiMAX is indeed afoot. Yet it resides in the shadows of popular awareness because the public communication media -- who might, but do not report on the effort -- are largely owned by the same corporate entities perpetrating the contaminating technologies, and they are motivated to not reveal the health and ecological dangers of wireless technologies. And so welcome to an unheralded, but vastly important, movement that is growing every day:
2000.
* An international gathering of scientists issues the Salzburg Resolution -- proclaiming that no low-end threshold for safe exposure exists for electromagnetic and radio-frequency radiation.

* Thousands of medical doctors and healthcare practitioners sign the Freiberg Appeal -- calling for tougher guidelines for EMF/RF exposure.

2003.
* After witnessing the biggest-ever protest meeting of a village in northern New Mexico, the local school board cancels an already-signed contract to erect cell towers on its schools.
* The Catholic Church in Italy calls for cell phone antennas to be removed from bell towers, branding them dangerous to human health and spiritually “out of keeping.”
* In England and Ireland outraged citizens bulldoze down cell towers –- as many as four in England and four in Northern Ireland each week.
