DESCRIPTION:Power point presentation and panel discussion featuring health educator 
 Sarah Aminoff, scientist Lloyd Morgan, and former attorney Kelley Hart, 
 followed by audience discussion.  \n\nCome learn why there is a movement to 
 ban 5th Generation close proximity "small" cell wireless antennas near 
 schools and residences.  Oppose 5G to protect our local bird, pollinator, 
 wildlife, and human populations.  Stopping 5G wireless will not prevent the 
 availability of wireless services, but will:\n	• Protect privacy and 
 security, \n	• Reduce unsightly and hazardous industrial clutter in our 
 neighborhoods, \n	• Prevent 5G's exorbitant energy use, \n	• Minimize 
 harmful health and environmental impacts from radiation,   \n	• Make 
 cities more resilient when disaster strikes by preserving our reliable 
 communication network, and \n	• Defend local sovereignty and the public 
 interest from Big Telecom greed.  Do not fall for industry hype!\n\nOver 
 twenty California cities have passed measures to restrict the 5G rollout.  
 If Big Telecom plans proceed, 5G will adversely affect privacy, safety, 
 property values, weather prediction, etc.  There are far superior 
 alternatives, cable and fiber optic, which are more reliable, more secure, 
 faster, and more affordable.\n\nDon't miss the audience discussion that 
 follows the presentation!  Bring friends to this important forum and 
 share/forward this notice to people who need info. \n\n\nAbout the 
 speakers: \n\nLloyd Morgan is Senior Research Fellow, Environmental Health 
 Trust, and Director, Central Brain Tumor Registry of the US.  He is a 
 retired electronic engineer who has been working on the risks of radio 
 frequency radiation since 1991 and has published peer-reviewed studies on 
 that topic.  After helping the city of Berkeley adopt its Cell Phone Right 
 to Know ordinance, he founded Wireless Radiation Education & Defense 
 (WiRED) which is on the cusp of getting the city of Berkeley to adopt an 
 ordinance restricting 5G.  He is a Board Member of the International EMF 
 (Electromagnetic Frequencies) Alliance and is also a member of the 
 international science organizations, the Bioelectromagnetics Society, the 
 European Bioelectromagnetics Association, and the Brain Tumor Epidemiology 
 Consortium.\n \nSarah Aminoff taught freshman first year experience at 
 Sonoma State University and health education at City College of SF, College 
 for Teens, as well as being a K-12 educator.  With United Educators of SF, 
 she worked on a safer technology campaign for SF schools in collaboration 
 with Environmental Health Trust's educational campaigns on children's 
 health. She is the EMF Project Coordinator for FACTS (Families Advocating 
 for Chemical & Toxics Safety) and is a member of the California Alliance 
 for Safer Technology, a consortium of health and environmental advocates, 
 physicians, nonprofit leaders, attorneys and government officials, as well 
 as Americans for Responsible Technology.  Successful campaigns include 
 Sierra Club CA Conservation Committee voting to oppose 5G without 
 environmental review or local control.  Ms. Aminoff will add a dynamic 
 power point presentation to the 5G discussion. \n\nKelley Hart is an 
 independent consultant in the parks and recreation field, primarily helping 
 non-profits and local governments plan transformative projects for their 
 park systems or expand land conservation holdings. She worked for thirteen 
 years for The Trust for Public Land, most recently as the head of its 
 national planning team. Prior to that, she worked at UCLA School of Law as 
 a staff attorney.  Though she is not currently practicing law, she has been 
 researching local ordinances and other solutions to stop 5G until proven 
 safe because she is extremely concerned about the health impacts of 
 millimeter wave radiation. She lives in Berkeley with her husband and 
 son.\n\nEllen Marks (tentative), founder of the California Brain Tumor 
 Association, helped achieve Berkeley's ground-breaking and life-saving Cell 
 Phone Right to Know ordinance.\n\nPhoebe Sorgen, former Berkeley 
 Commissioner and cofounder of WiRED, will facilitate the discussion. 
 \n\nFREE!  Wheelchair accessible.  \n(Inaccessible to EMF sensitive people, 
 regrettably.  Attendees will be admonished to put cell phones on airplane 
 mode, but there is wifi throughout the building, needed by 
 employees.)\n\nEvent endorsed by Wireless Radiation Education & Defense 
 (WiRED), Berkeley Citizens Action (BCA), Berkeley Fellowship of Unitarian 
 Universalists Social Justice Committee.\n\n\n\n
