5G- So many celltowers …do we really need more?
If you feel like you don’t know enough about the health and environmental risks from 5G, you are not alone. Neither does our government. Nor do the international insurers, who have rejected cover for 5G due to the unassessable risk. Lets adopt a precautionary approach and have a moratorium on the rollout and adoption of…
