I think I would make a short-term recommendation for research and experimentation on animals, because that's where it's the easiest to compare exposure to electromagnetic fields versus non-exposure--but publicly funded research.
With regard to human health, we need to have more information on the health effects, especially on children, because that population is usually more sensitive to exposure to potential carcinogens. The problem is that if we look at long-term effects, it will take a while before we see it, so I think that in the meantime we should be very cautious in terms of exposure, and I support what has been said from Sweden.
There is no reason to wait to lower the exposure levels of a population. For example, in France, 16 cities have been chosen where the exposure will be limited to 0.64 per meter--the recommended level from the BioInitiative Report--to see if there will be a difference in the way people feel in regard to their own health, showing that it's feasible to have lower emission levels. Of course, we will not yet be able look at long-term effects.
So more research, yes, but more research should not delay action. When we see that we had to wait more than four years to maybe see one day that the results of the Interphone study were out, it's really a problem. Of course, public research has been limited so far because of the lack of funding, so there is a need for public funding, totally independent funding on these issues.
