Smart Meters & Radiation

There is a lot of information on the web at, stopsmartmeters.org that would probably be the best source if you had to pick one.

Last November our Gov. Abercrombie (the 2nd from the bottom Governor in the country) signed a memorandum with Japan officials to implement a multi-million dollar "smart grid" in Hawaii. The project includes installation of "smart meters" in our homes, which has already begun on Maui, and eventual undersea cables to connect the islands. (read, supply power to Oahu)

The nationwide roll-out of transmitting radio frequency utility meters, known as smart meters, has intensified since the federal push and funding for them came through Obama’s Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009.

The health hazards of dangerous electromagnetic radiation exposure to humans, animals, and marine life are evident but have not been addressed by our newspapers or TV. Electromagnetic radiation is a silent killer. The American Academy of Environmental Medicine has officially called for a moratorium against smart meters in homes and schools.

There are 100’s of links denoting some of the health risks involved as well as how peoples electric bills are a couple hundred dollars *higher* since the *smart meter* was installed.

Maui News "Letters to the Editor" It should tell of the pitfalls of the Smart Meter, Like the radiation factor involved, and the fact that they can control your home electrical usage, etc. letters@mauinews.com

Thousands of people have submitted written health complaints to the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC), and in May the World Health Organization made an earth shattering declaration that non-ionizing radiation from cell phones, cell towers, wifi, and "smart" meters, has been linked with a number of cancers. "Smart" meter radiation is now categorized as a class 2b carcinogen in the same cancer causing category as lead, DDT, and engine exhaust. Nevertheless, PG&E continues to maintain that their meters are safe."

There is no Federal law or mandate that forces you to have a smart meter installed in your home or complex. PG&E has stated that they do not intend to respect laws in Santa Cruz County, Capitola, and Watsonville that prohibit wireless meter installation, laws that were passed to protect the public from identified health and safety risks from the new meters. Don’t let that happen here on Maui.

Is the Smart Grid a Smart Move for Maui?

This front page article in the Maui Weekly (April 26-May 2) is the first balanced reporting on the issue that we know of to date. The headline was preceded with the words: "Charged Issue." We agree. In more ways than two! Check it out: http://www.mauiweekly.com/page/content.detail/id/509706/Is-the-Smart-Grid-a-Smart-Move-for-Maui-.html?nav=13

Just read your blog on hacking. Scarey and fascinating at the same time. I predict that a hacked smart grid will stop the smart meter menace once and for all.

As a resident on Kauai battling the smart grid fiasco, I do hope that the people of Maui will take heed concerning the lessons learned on Kauai. Now I discover that our Gov. Abercrombie is making arrangements with the Japanese to install cables to connect (God forbid) the future smart grid of Hawaii to the Mainland. And here we were told by our fake co-op, Kauai IslandUtility Co-op which has violated every co-op principal and value in the book, that the smart meter is only intended to save us electricity as if we didn’t have the sense to do it ourselves? So what’s with the cables? Could it possibly be a plan to control humanity worldwide? Ah, I tell you people of Maui.. beware of smart meters, unless of course you approve of a fascist police state controlling your every move.

First we get the National Defense Authorization Act, then local spy drones, 30,000 of them competing for space in our skies with commercial aircraft (WATCH OUT AND FASTEN YOUR SEAT BELTS) AND NOW SMART METERS— ALL OF THESE ATROCITIES AIMED AT THE DESTRUCTION OF OUR LIBERTIES. My dear brothers and sisters in Maui, you best nip these smart meters in the bud while you have the chance.
