FDA Warns Pregnant Women, Children, and People with Pre-Existing Conditions May Be Harmed by Mercury Dental Fillings

The FDA is supposed to protect Americans from harmful products before they are made available to the public AND recall harmful products quickly when there is evidence that they are unsafe .
They have a long history of failing to do so .
Some examples include opioids , countless other medications , medical devices ( see 1 , 2 , 3 ) and even hand sanitizers .
Last month , the better-late-than-never agency announced that mercury dental fillings MAY NOT BE SAFE for everyone .
• September 24 , 2020 , the U.S. Food and Drug Administration released its long-overdue @ @ @ @ @ @ @ warns mercury fillings may adversely affect people in certain high-risk groups and should be avoided • Groups identified as being at increased risk for harmful effects from dental mercury fillings include pregnant women and their developing fetuses , nursing women , women who are planning to become pregnant , infants and children under the age of 6 , people with neurological diseases , impaired kidney function or heightened sensitivity to mercury or other amalgam components • After years of pressure from Consumers for Dental Choice and its allies , the FDA finally agreed @ @ @ @ @ @ @ now admits dental amalgam releases mercury vapor that can cause health problems in some individuals • The FDA also advised against use of the misleading term “ silver fillings , ” and urges patients to discuss all dental filling options with their dentist Just four weeks after we celebrated our 10th annual Mercury Awareness and Mercury-Free Dentistry Week , the U.S. Food and Drug Administration released a long-overdue safety communication on amalgam .
In an astounding about-face to its previous stance , the FDA issued a warning that mercury fillings may adversely affect @ @ @ @ @ @ @ individuals , and should be avoided by these groups .
The safety communication1 was posted September 24 , 2020 , and with this , we have suddenly achieved an incredibly important goal that we ’ ve had our sights on for the last decade !
As noted in the FDA ’ s statement:2 “ Today , the FDA is issuing updated recommendations concerning dental amalgam and potential risks to certain high-risk individuals that may be associated with these mercury-containing fillings … The FDA has found that certain groups may be at greater risk @ @ @ @ @ @ @ vapor released from the device [ amalgam ] .
As a result , the agency is recommending certain high-risk groups avoid getting dental amalgam whenever possible and appropriate.
” Groups identified by the FDA as being at increased risk for harmful effects from dental mercury fillings include : • Women who are planning to become pregnant • Nursing women and their newborns and infants • Children , especially those younger than 6 • People with pre-existing neurological disease such as multiple sclerosis , Alzheimer ’ s disease or Parkinson ’ s disease • @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ) to mercury or other components of dental amalgam After years of pressure from Consumers for Dental Choice and its allies , the FDA finally admits the unvarnished truth about amalgam , noting3 that “ Dental amalgam is a mixture of mercury and a powdered alloy made up of silver , tin and copper ” that “ releases small amounts of mercury vapor over time.
” The agency also admits there are “ uncertainties ” and risks associated with this mercury vapor release , especially for the high-risk groups listed .
In particular @ @ @ @ @ @ @ mercury in dental amalgam to convert to other mercury compounds in the body , ” and mercury could potentially accumulate in body fluids and tissues , resulting in “ unintended health outcomes.
” “ These uncertainties in the most vulnerable patients are why today we are recommending people who may be at high risk for adverse health effects of mercury exposure use non-mercury alternatives to dental amalgam , such as composite resins and glass ionomer cement fillings , ” the FDA states.4 While the FDA downplays the importance of its changed recommendation by @ @ @ @ @ @ @ likely “ outweigh their risks for most patients , ” this update is nothing short of monumental , and opens the door , finally , for the elimination of dental mercury for all patients in the U.S. , as has been done in many other countries already .
I want to take this opportunity to thank all of you who have supported Consumers for Dental Choice during these past 10 years , as it is this organization ’ s unwavering dedication that has now borne fruit .
The FDA is legally required to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ rule for — all medical devices , including dental amalgam .
But for 30 years , FDA dodged its legal duty to classify amalgam .
Consumers for Dental Choice put an end to FDA ’ s negligence when , in 2008 , this dynamic nonprofit organization assembled plaintiffs and sued FDA , demanding that amalgam be classified .
The judge agreed and told FDA to sit down with Consumers for Dental Choice to determine a deadline .
FDA was compelled to commit to classifying amalgam by July 2009 .
But when July 2009 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ FDA had not considered the science — especially the evidence of harm amalgam can cause vulnerable populations like children , pregnant women and breastfeeding mothers .
Its abysmal rule reflected this shortcoming , as it did not restrict the use of amalgam for these most vulnerable individuals .
The rule did not even require that patients be told that amalgam is made of mercury .
Nonetheless , FDA ’ s 2009 rule did acknowledge that amalgam could be harmful , and that there was no proof of safety for the populations most susceptible @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Consumers for Dental Choice challenged FDA ’ s rule , while simultaneously pursuing other opportunities to advance mercury-free dentistry , like defeating pro-mercury state dental boards , fighting for amalgam fact sheet laws for patients at the state level , and getting amalgam into the Minamata Convention on Mercury .
As Consumers for Dental Choice racked up win after win — regaining licenses for mercury-free dentists persecuted by state boards , gaining fact sheets to protect dental patients , achieving an amalgam reduction requirement in the Minamata Convention — the FDA ’ s @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a decade after the FDA issued its flawed amalgam rule , Consumers for Dental Choice launched a nonstop campaign focused on getting the FDA to move on amalgam .
They assembled an accomplished team of experts to approach the FDA , and in 2018 , unveiled the “ Chicago Declaration to End Mercury Use in the Dental Industry ” at the University of Illinois School of Public Health .
This declaration , signed by more than 50 heavy-hitter environmental groups , called on the FDA “ to bring its policies in line with @ @ @ @ @ @ @ with its responsibilities under the Minamata Convention and to publicly advise a phase down of the use of mercury amalgams with the goal of phasing out entirely.
” The declaration also called for the immediate ban on amalgam use in children , pregnant women and breastfeeding mothers .
Working with key signatories to the “ Chicago Declaration , ” Consumers for Dental Choice were able to secure meetings with top officials at the FDA , during which they were able to submit scientific studies for the FDA to review .
The first sign @ @ @ @ @ @ @ s September 2019 scientific review5 of amalgam , “ Epidemiological Evidence on the Adverse Health Effects Reported in Relation to Mercury from Dental Amalgam , ” which recognized that the elemental mercury in dental amalgam can convert inside the body into toxic methylmercury — the same type of mercury that the FDA warns about in fish .
The FDA also recognized bioaccumulative effects of mercury .
Since patients are exposed to many sources of mercury — including high-mercury fish in their diets , occupational exposures and environmental mercury from waste incinerators — the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ straw that breaks the camel ’ s back .
Consumers for Dental Choice also organized a strong showing of public support from you .
Its online petition , which had nearly 50,000 signatures , was presented to the FDA in person at its first meeting with the agency .
Many of you also submitted public comments on patient preferences to the FDA .
FDA was also made aware of the changes to amalgam rules in other parts of the world , such as amalgam phase-out dates set by the Philippines , Ireland , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , Czech Republic and New Caledonia , and the bans on amalgam use in children issued by the European Union , Vietnam and Tanzania .
Having finally reached the top of the FDA , Consumers for Dental Choice succeeded in persuading the agency to reopen and take another in-depth look at the amalgam policy .
A scientific advisory committee meeting — which included testimonies by 16 experts from the Children ’ s Environmental Health Network , Tuskegee University , the International Indian Treaty Council , the Organic & Natural Health Association and the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ well as city and county commissioners , a physician expert in environmental justice , a pharmacist specializing in toxicology and several attorneys — took place in November 2019 .
You can see Consumers for Dental Choice ’ s team and their colleagues in action in the video below , which features highlights of the advisory panel meeting .
Ultimately , the FDA advisory committee members recommended the agency provide information to patients about the risks of dental amalgam , especially for vulnerable populations .
Many even agreed that the use of amalgam needs @ @ @ @ @ @ @ goal of Consumers for Dental Choice all along .
Now that the FDA has finally broken its silence on the dangers of mercury for pregnant and nursing mothers , children and people with certain underlying conditions , the final step — a full ban on amalgam for all — looms near .
The American Dental Association , which has long defended amalgam ’ s safety , is now running out of allies .
For now , however , the ADA still maintains its contrarian view .
In response to the FDA ’ s @ @ @ @ @ @ @ there was “ no new scientific evidence cited as part of the FDA recommendation , ” and that the ADA “ reaffirms its position that dental amalgam is a durable , safe and effective cavity-filling option.
” On the upside , the ADA affirmed its support of patient decision-making , agreeing with the FDA ’ s statement that “ all dental restorative decisions and treatment options should be made by the patient and the dentist.
” Seeing how the ADA ’ s ethical rules in the past were used by state dental boards @ @ @ @ @ @ @ about the fact that mercury is a key ingredient in amalgam , and how the ADA deceptively promoted amalgam as “ silver fillings , ” this shift , while small , is better than nothing .
In its September 24 , 2020 , safety communication on dental amalgam,7 the FDA specifically advises dentists against using the term “ silver filling , ” “ as this may imply the filling is made solely from silver and does not accurately convey the mercury component of this restorative material.
” The FDA also highlights this in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , which received its last update September 29 , 2020 , noting that:8 Most of us who have fought for this updated FDA amalgam policy for the past decade are still in shock that it finally happened , and without any significant forewarning .
That said , it is fantastic good news , and we extend our thanks to all of you who have fought this battle with us .
The FDA ’ s updated recommendations change everything , because once amalgam is recognized as a hazard for specific high-risk groups , it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that logic to include all people .
It ’ s estimated that 75 % of Americans are ignorant about the fact that amalgam fillings are actually 50 % mercury , and this is no accident .
The American Dental Association popularized the deceptive term “ silver fillings ” so consumers would think amalgam is made mainly of silver when actually it has twice as much mercury as silver .
Mercury is an incredibly potent neurotoxin ; it doesn ’ t take much to cause serious damage because it ’ s an absolute poison @ @ @ @ @ @ @ amount of mercury in a typical thermometer and put it in a small lake , that lake would be closed down due to environmental hazards .

STORY AT-A-GLANCE
September 24, 2020, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration released its long-overdue safety communication on amalgam
The FDA warns mercury fillings may adversely affect people in certain high-risk groups and should be avoided
Groups identified as being at increased risk for harmful effects from dental mercury fillings include pregnant women and their developing fetuses, nursing women, women who are planning to become pregnant, infants and children under the age of 6, people with neurological diseases, impaired kidney function or heightened sensitivity to mercury or other amalgam components
After years of pressure from Consumers for Dental Choice and its allies, the FDA finally agreed to reopen the amalgam issue, and now admits dental amalgam releases mercury vapor that can cause health problems in some individuals
The FDA also advised against use of the misleading term “silver fillings,” and urges patients to discuss all dental filling options with their dentist
Just four weeks after we celebrated our 10th annual Mercury Awareness and Mercury-Free Dentistry Week, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration released a long-overdue safety communication on amalgam.
In an astounding about-face to its previous stance, the FDA issued a warning that mercury fillings may adversely affect pregnant women, children and other susceptible individuals, and should be avoided by these groups.
The safety communication1 was posted September 24, 2020, and with this, we have suddenly achieved an incredibly important goal that we’ve had our sights on for the last decade!
Goal Achieved: FDA Releases Amalgam Safety Communication
As noted in the FDA’s statement:2
“Today, the FDA is issuing updated recommendations concerning dental amalgam and potential risks to certain high-risk individuals that may be associated with these mercury-containing fillings …
The FDA has found that certain groups may be at greater risk for potential harmful health effects of mercury vapor released from the device [amalgam]. As a result, the agency is recommending certain high-risk groups avoid getting dental amalgam whenever possible and appropriate.”
Groups identified by the FDA as being at increased risk for harmful effects from dental mercury fillings include:
Pregnant women and their developing fetuses
Women who are planning to become pregnant
Nursing women and their newborns and infants
Children, especially those younger than 6
People with pre-existing neurological disease such as multiple sclerosis, Alzheimer’s disease or Parkinson’s disease
People with impaired kidney function
People with known heightened sensitivity (allergy) to mercury or other components of dental amalgam
FDA Admits Amalgam Dangers
After years of pressure from Consumers for Dental Choice and its allies, the FDA finally admits the unvarnished truth about amalgam, noting3 that “Dental amalgam is a mixture of mercury and a powdered alloy made up of silver, tin and copper” that “releases small amounts of mercury vapor over time.”
The agency also admits there are “uncertainties” and risks associated with this mercury vapor release, especially for the high-risk groups listed. In particular, there is “the potential for mercury in dental amalgam to convert to other mercury compounds in the body,” and mercury could potentially accumulate in body fluids and tissues, resulting in “unintended health outcomes.”
“These uncertainties in the most vulnerable patients are why today we are recommending people who may be at high risk for adverse health effects of mercury exposure use non-mercury alternatives to dental amalgam, such as composite resins and glass ionomer cement fillings,” the FDA states.4
While the FDA downplays the importance of its changed recommendation by stressing that the benefits of dental amalgam likely “outweigh their risks for most patients,” this update is nothing short of monumental, and opens the door, finally, for the elimination of dental mercury for all patients in the U.S., as has been done in many other countries already.
I want to take this opportunity to thank all of you who have supported Consumers for Dental Choice during these past 10 years, as it is this organization’s unwavering dedication that has now borne fruit.
Consumers for Dental Choice Sued FDA — and Won
The FDA is legally required to classify — that is, issue a rule for — all medical devices, including dental amalgam. But for 30 years, FDA dodged its legal duty to classify amalgam.
Consumers for Dental Choice put an end to FDA’s negligence when, in 2008, this dynamic nonprofit organization assembled plaintiffs and sued FDA, demanding that amalgam be classified. The judge agreed and told FDA to sit down with Consumers for Dental Choice to determine a deadline. FDA was compelled to commit to classifying amalgam by July 2009.
But when July 2009 came around, it was clear the FDA had not considered the science — especially the evidence of harm amalgam can cause vulnerable populations like children, pregnant women and breastfeeding mothers.
Its abysmal rule reflected this shortcoming, as it did not restrict the use of amalgam for these most vulnerable individuals. The rule did not even require that patients be told that amalgam is made of mercury. Nonetheless, FDA’s 2009 rule did acknowledge that amalgam could be harmful, and that there was no proof of safety for the populations most susceptible to this toxin.
In response, Consumers for Dental Choice challenged FDA’s rule, while simultaneously pursuing other opportunities to advance mercury-free dentistry, like defeating pro-mercury state dental boards, fighting for amalgam fact sheet laws for patients at the state level, and getting amalgam into the Minamata Convention on Mercury.
As Consumers for Dental Choice racked up win after win — regaining licenses for mercury-free dentists persecuted by state boards, gaining fact sheets to protect dental patients, achieving an amalgam reduction requirement in the Minamata Convention — the FDA’s rule was looking increasingly archaic.
Decade-Long Wait Is Over
Nearly a decade after the FDA issued its flawed amalgam rule, Consumers for Dental Choice launched a nonstop campaign focused on getting the FDA to move on amalgam.
They assembled an accomplished team of experts to approach the FDA, and in 2018, unveiled the “Chicago Declaration to End Mercury Use in the Dental Industry” at the University of Illinois School of Public Health.
This declaration, signed by more than 50 heavy-hitter environmental groups, called on the FDA “to bring its policies in line with the Federal Government as a whole and with its responsibilities under the Minamata Convention and to publicly advise a phase down of the use of mercury amalgams with the goal of phasing out entirely.”
The declaration also called for the immediate ban on amalgam use in children, pregnant women and breastfeeding mothers. Working with key signatories to the “Chicago Declaration,” Consumers for Dental Choice were able to secure meetings with top officials at the FDA, during which they were able to submit scientific studies for the FDA to review.
The first sign of progress came with the FDA’s September 2019 scientific review5 of amalgam, “Epidemiological Evidence on the Adverse Health Effects Reported in Relation to Mercury from Dental Amalgam,” which recognized that the elemental mercury in dental amalgam can convert inside the body into toxic methylmercury — the same type of mercury that the FDA warns about in fish.
The FDA also recognized bioaccumulative effects of mercury. Since patients are exposed to many sources of mercury — including high-mercury fish in their diets, occupational exposures and environmental mercury from waste incinerators — the mercury from amalgam could be the proverbial straw that breaks the camel’s back.
FDA Reverses Stance on Amalgam
Consumers for Dental Choice also organized a strong showing of public support from you. Its online petition, which had nearly 50,000 signatures, was presented to the FDA in person at its first meeting with the agency. Many of you also submitted public comments on patient preferences to the FDA.
FDA was also made aware of the changes to amalgam rules in other parts of the world, such as amalgam phase-out dates set by the Philippines, Ireland, Slovakia, Finland, Nepal, Moldova, Czech Republic and New Caledonia, and the bans on amalgam use in children issued by the European Union, Vietnam and Tanzania.
Having finally reached the top of the FDA, Consumers for Dental Choice succeeded in persuading the agency to reopen and take another in-depth look at the amalgam policy.
A scientific advisory committee meeting — which included testimonies by 16 experts from the Children’s Environmental Health Network, Tuskegee University, the International Indian Treaty Council, the Organic & Natural Health Association and the Connecticut Coalition for Environmental Justice, as well as city and county commissioners, a physician expert in environmental justice, a pharmacist specializing in toxicology and several attorneys — took place in November 2019.
You can see Consumers for Dental Choice’s team and their colleagues in action in the video below, which features highlights of the advisory panel meeting.
Ultimately, the FDA advisory committee members recommended the agency provide information to patients about the risks of dental amalgam, especially for vulnerable populations. Many even agreed that the use of amalgam needs to end, which has been the goal of Consumers for Dental Choice all along.
Final Step Ahead
Now that the FDA has finally broken its silence on the dangers of mercury for pregnant and nursing mothers, children and people with certain underlying conditions, the final step — a full ban on amalgam for all — looms near.
The American Dental Association, which has long defended amalgam’s safety, is now running out of allies. For now, however, the ADA still maintains its contrarian view.
In response to the FDA’s updated recommendations, the ADA stated6 that there was “no new scientific evidence cited as part of the FDA recommendation,” and that the ADA “reaffirms its position that dental amalgam is a durable, safe and effective cavity-filling option.”
On the upside, the ADA affirmed its support of patient decision-making, agreeing with the FDA’s statement that “all dental restorative decisions and treatment options should be made by the patient and the dentist.”
Seeing how the ADA’s ethical rules in the past were used by state dental boards to bar dentists from even informing patients about the fact that mercury is a key ingredient in amalgam, and how the ADA deceptively promoted amalgam as “silver fillings,” this shift, while small, is better than nothing.
In its September 24, 2020, safety communication on dental amalgam,7 the FDA specifically advises dentists against using the term “silver filling,” “as this may imply the filling is made solely from silver and does not accurately convey the mercury component of this restorative material.” The FDA also highlights this in its Dental Devices description page for amalgam, which received its last update September 29, 2020, noting that:8
Dental amalgam is a mixture of metals, consisting of liquid (elemental) mercury and a powdered alloy composed of silver, tin, and copper. Approximately half (50%) of dental amalgam is elemental mercury by weight. The chemical properties of elemental mercury allow it to react with and bind together the silver/copper/tin alloy particles to form an amalgam. Dental amalgam fillings are often referred to as ‘silver fillings’ because of their silver-like appearance, although the use of this term in not recommended because the term does not correctly explain the materials in amalgam.
Most of us who have fought for this updated FDA amalgam policy for the past decade are still in shock that it finally happened, and without any significant forewarning. That said, it is fantastic good news, and we extend our thanks to all of you who have fought this battle with us.
The FDA’s updated recommendations change everything, because once amalgam is recognized as a hazard for specific high-risk groups, it doesn’t take much to expand that logic to include all people.
What’s Lurking in Your Silver Fillings?
It’s estimated that 75% of Americans are ignorant about the fact that amalgam fillings are actually 50% mercury, and this is no accident. The American Dental Association popularized the deceptive term “silver fillings” so consumers would think amalgam is made mainly of silver when actually it has twice as much mercury as silver.
Mercury is an incredibly potent neurotoxin; it doesn’t take much to cause serious damage because it’s an absolute poison. If you were to take the amount of mercury in a typical thermometer and put it in a small lake, that lake would be closed down due to environmental hazards.
Yet, amounts much higher than that are readily put into your mouth if you receive a “silver” amalgam dental filling, as the majority of material in the filling is actually mercury.

activistpost--2020-10-22--Proposed Lawsuit to Protect Lake Tahoe & Other Sensitive Environments from Telecoms and 5G

20+ years ago , The Federal Communications Commission ( FCC ) replaced the EPA as the regulatory body appointed to protect Americans from the telecom industry .
They are NOT a health or environmental agency and they HAVE flagrantly catered to the industry for decades .
The agency has become much more dangerous since Trump was elected ( see 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 , 6 , 7 , 8 , 9 , 10 , 11 ) .
Despite research proving harm , they refuse to update 24-year-old federal RF radiation exposure guidelines .
Lawsuits have @ @ @ @ @ @ @ protecting the public from unsafe levels of radiation as well as 5G on Earth ( see 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 ) and in space .
Natural Resources Defense Council ( NRDC ) and several Native American tribal groups are among those who have filed .
Another lawsuit has recently been proposed to save Lake Tahoe and other environmentally sensitive areas from being saturated with toxic 5G and WiFi .
Proposed Lawsuit Could Save Lake Tahoe & Other Sensitive Environments from 5G Telecom Takeovers A group of residents from @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to launch arguably one of the most critical environmental lawsuits of 2020 .
But they need your help to do it .
Lake Tahoe , straddling both California and Nevada , is the second deepest lake in the United States , a pristine environment treasured by millions and home to endangered species .
But thanks to profit-hungry telecom companies and their “ captured ” regulator at Tahoe , the Tahoe Regional Planning Agency ( TRPA ) , this magical place is on the fast-track to destruction .
Over 100 unregulated , radiation-emitting 5G @ @ @ @ @ @ @ area , and the TRPA is getting ready to approve the construction of a 112-foot cell tower smack in the middle of Bald Eagle habitat !
If we don ’ t stop TRPA now , Lake Tahoe as we know it will not survive the looming telecom takeover .
Lawyers are ready to go to federal court to ensure that the TRPA doesn ’ t get away with ruining Tahoe forever .
If successful , the case will protect the Lake from future wireless infrastructure deployments and could even set legal precedent for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
Please consider donating to help support this critical cause .
If you are unable to donate , share the fundraiser with friends and family .
There IS research that has determined 5G is NOT safe .
Cities AND entire countries have taken action to ban , delay , halt , and limit installation AS WELL AS issue moratoriums on deployment .
In the U.S. 5G lawsuits have been filed by municipalities against the FCC .
Municipal legislators have passed resolutions to ban it until studies prove it ’ s safe ( see @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , 5 , 6 ) and ordinances to limit and/or control installation .
State representatives in Hawaii and Illinois have introduced bills to protect constituents .
Congress members have confronted the FCC with their concerns ( see 1 , 2 ) .
American opposition also includes federal agencies and other experts who warn 5G could threaten national security , public safety , and weather forecasting accuracy ( see 1 , 2 , 3 ) .
High-speed internet CAN be obtained without 5G and even without wireless .
According to FCC Chairman Ajit Pai @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the agency – Americans have also paid to have this already .

20+ years ago, The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) replaced the EPA as the regulatory body appointed to protect Americans from the telecom industry. They are NOT a health or environmental agency and they HAVE flagrantly catered to the industry for decades. The agency has become much more dangerous since Trump was elected (see 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11). Despite research proving harm, they refuse to update 24-year-old federal RF radiation exposure guidelines.
Lawsuits have been filed against the FCC for NOT protecting the public from unsafe levels of radiation as well as 5G on Earth (see 1, 2, 3, 4, 5) and in space. Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC) and several Native American tribal groups are among those who have filed. Another lawsuit has recently been proposed to save Lake Tahoe and other environmentally sensitive areas from being saturated with toxic 5G and WiFi.
From 5G Crisis:
Proposed Lawsuit Could Save Lake Tahoe & Other Sensitive Environments from 5G Telecom Takeovers A group of residents from South Lake Tahoe, California are planning to launch arguably one of the most critical environmental lawsuits of 2020. But they need your help to do it. Lake Tahoe, straddling both California and Nevada, is the second deepest lake in the United States, a pristine environment treasured by millions and home to endangered species. But thanks to profit-hungry telecom companies and their “captured” regulator at Tahoe, the Tahoe Regional Planning Agency (TRPA), this magical place is on the fast-track to destruction. Over 100 unregulated, radiation-emitting 5G antennas have already been installed throughout the area, and the TRPA is getting ready to approve the construction of a 112-foot cell tower smack in the middle of Bald Eagle habitat! If we don’t stop TRPA now, Lake Tahoe as we know it will not survive the looming telecom takeover. Lawyers are ready to go to federal court to ensure that the TRPA doesn’t get away with ruining Tahoe forever. If successful, the case will protect the Lake from future wireless infrastructure deployments and could even set legal precedent for our National Parks and other sensitive environments. Please consider donating to help support this critical cause. If you are unable to donate, share the fundraiser with friends and family.
There IS research that has determined 5G is NOT safe. Cities AND entire countries have taken action to ban, delay, halt, and limit installation AS WELL AS issue moratoriums on deployment. In the U.S. 5G lawsuits have been filed by municipalities against the FCC. Municipal legislators have passed resolutions to ban it until studies prove it’s safe (see 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6) and ordinances to limit and/or control installation.
State representatives in Hawaii and Illinois have introduced bills to protect constituents. Congress members have confronted the FCC with their concerns (see 1, 2). American opposition also includes federal agencies and other experts who warn 5G could threaten national security, public safety, and weather forecasting accuracy (see 1, 2, 3).
High-speed internet CAN be obtained without 5G and even without wireless. According to FCC Chairman Ajit Pai – and a different LAWSUIT filed against the agency – Americans have also paid to have this already.
The majority of scientists worldwide oppose 5G until there are studies that prove it’s safe. Doctors and scientists have asked for moratoriums on Earth and in space (see 1, 2). Since 2018 there have been reports of people and animals experiencing symptoms and illnesses after 5G was installed (see 1. 2, 3, 4).
However, exposure risks aren’t exclusive to 5G. Last year, the World Health Organization warned that high levels of Electromagnetic Fields (aka “Electrosmog”) could cause health issues in a significant percentage of the population. Doctors and scientists – including the American Academy of Pediatrics – insist that exposure to ALL sources of wireless radiation is harmful (see also 1, 2). The FCC doesn’t seem to care. They continue siding with telecoms and industry-paid consultants. Unfortunately, Trump seems to be siding with them as well despite the fact that even Slovenia – his wife Melania’s country of birth – issued a moratorium earlier this year due to painfully obvious risks.
March 2020: Slovenia halts 5G
5G has been halted in Slovenia. Slovenia government website information.
A letter – in Slovenian and unofficial English translation on official Ministry of Public Administration memo and with Minister name on it stating legal basis for further 5g activities in Slovenia were withdrawn from Government meeting also due to possible health effects of 5g.
“Slovenia stops the introduction of 5G technology: We do not know if it is dangerous to humans”
Read more here:
“The Agency for Networks and Communication Services (AKOS) of the Republic of Slovenia (regulatory body that regulates the communication sectors) has been instructed to stop the assignment of the 5G frequency spectrum. The Slovenian moratorium is supported by the Slovenian Minister of Public Administration Rudy Medved, who in the division of the medical-scientific community on the biological effects of unexplored radio frequencies has opted for the adoption of the precautionary principle : “I am aware that we will not find a definitive answer, since there has not been one globally. 5G technology has not been established in practice to the extent that studies could produce results by which we could conclusively say that 5G is completely harmless. ” The decision came after the Ministry of Public Administration convened a public consultation on the security of 5G technologies together with Gregor Kos, president of the non-ideological political party For a healthy society and Igor Šajn of the ecological consultancy organization Biology and Construction.. The meeting, scheduled for four hours, lasted six hours. The Slovenian party website reads: “Ban on the use of wifi technology in kindergartens, schools, hospitals, nursing homes and in the second phase of all public institutions. Moratorium on the introduction of 5G based on the precautionary principle, thanks to sufficient scientific research to demonstrate the negative effects of electromagnetic radiation on human health, nature and the environment”.

activistpost--2020-10-22--Silver’s Coming Double Trigger Shotgun Price Explosion

Even in the competitive hunting/shooting community , few enthusiasts know about an arcane rifle known as a “ double trigger shotgun.
” Essentially , it ’ s a double-barrel shotgun having a trigger for each barrel .
This was an early day ’ s design with the triggers located inside the trigger guard , back to front .
It was possible to press both triggers at once , causing a double discharge , though for the most part this was not a good idea – since it caused twice the recoil , and was hard on both the shotgun and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
Though this essay is not about shotguns , but rather silver , the above concept provides a perfect analogy for what I believe is in store – a double discharge for both silver demand and price in the reasonably near future !

Lessons from Ford’s “Palladium Hoarding Experience”
In 2001, a rumor that Russia, producer of most of the world’s palladium, might stop producing, caused Ford Motor company to aggressively stockpile this critical metal needed for manufacturing their catalytic converters near $1,100 per ounce – a price level that was not to be exceeded for another 20 years.
Soon thereafter, Russia started exporting again and the price collapsed to $140/ounce, forcing Ford to take a $1 billion write off on its stockpile.
Monetary demand is now starting to exceed that of industry. David Morgan again:

This year, 2020, has seen more silver bought as – money, investment, safe-heaven, or hard assets than is used in industry, and we are just warming up for the final round of the most significant move into things of value that the world has ever witnessed. There is an infinite demand for “money” because under the current system the debt can never be repaid, since the interest to pay the debt needs to be created. Money represents a lot of things- stored energy, stored labor, security, future planning, retirement funding, etc. Most think of “money” as security for their future. When enough people see that they don’t have any money and come to realize they have a substitute that is actually a fraud, the run to real “honest” money (precious metals), will overwhelm the markets. “Silver stacking” is becoming like collecting ammo… i.e., shortages.
If you’re a firearms enthusiast, you understand the need to keep a few boxes of ammo on hand for target practice and otherwise.
But if you’ve been ignoring the demand issues bearing down on supply – especially this year – then you’ve probably been confronted with empty shelves for months! Where even a small supply does exist (often with a 1 box limit) some customers have resorted to wearing a disguise in order to make a second purchase!
Don’t be foolish and wait for this happen to you when trying to get silver.
Act on silver (and gold) for your financial insurance plan now, because when silver’s double-trigger (price-supply) demand explosion takes place, you don’t want to be standing around empty handed!

What is Phonegate?
After a court filing, the National Frequency Agency (ANFR) of France disclosed that most cell phones exceed government radiation limits when tested the way they are used, next to the body. Manufacturers are not required to test phones in shirt or pants pockets. French government tests on hundreds of cell phones reveal that in 2015, 9 out of 10 phones exceed the manufacturer’s reported radiation test levels when re-tested in positions where the phone is in contact with the body. The government had refused to disclose these test results until pressure after the court action. On June 1, 2017, ANFR posted the details of the make, model and test results for each phone that was tested, after months of legal action by French physician Dr. Marc Arazi. Arazi’s request for the information was initially denied.
Ricocheting in headlines throughout France, Arazi and his colleagues have coined the situation as “PhoneGate” because of the parallels to “Diesel Gate” – the Volkswagen emissions saga. Devra Davis, PhD, President of Environmental Health Trust explained, “Volkswagen cars passed diesel emission tests when tested in laboratory conditions, but when the cars were driven on real roads, they emitted far more fumes. In the same way, every one of these cell phones ‘passed’ laboratory radiation SAR tests. These phones are legally considered compliant. However, when these phones are tested in the ways that people actually use them in real life, such as in your jeans pocket or bra, the amount of absorbed radiation emissions in our bodies violates the regulatory limits.” A Peer reviewed published paper by Professor Om Gandhi examined ANFR data from ANFR phone tests and found phones can emit 11 times over the US FCC limit and 3 times over French limits in 9 out of 10 phones tested.

What you will never see on an episode of Blue Bloods is how America’s largest police force, the New York Police Department (NYPD), tracks people’s sentiments.
A company called Elucd began tracking public sentiment at three major police departments after a 2018, 1 million dollar investment by Omidyar Network and Y Combinator.
A Wired article titled “How a ‘Sentiment Meter’ Helps Cops Understand Their Precincts” explained how some of the largest police departments in the country: the NYPD, the Los Angeles Police Department and the Chicago Police Department were giving police officers monthly “trust scores.”
In April, the NYPD informally introduced its public opinion monitor, also known as the “sentiment meter,” during CompStat, the weekly meetings in which top brass interrogate precinct commanders about crime trends. Precincts now receive a monthly “trust score” along with rankings that measure overall satisfaction with police performance and how safe residents feel.
The article also mentioned how the NYPD co-developed Elucd, a police sentiment company; and that is where this story begins to show signs of localized sentiment surveillance.
A recent VentureBeat article revealed how the NYPD and Elucd have spent $3 million in public funds to collect data from over 250,000 New Yorkers — including 44,185 in 2020.
Elucd uses targeted digital advertising to “send” surveys in English, Spanish, Chinese, and Russian to users on a range of websites and social media platforms, through traditional landline calls, and over 50,000 smartphone apps — including Candy Crush and WeatherBug. The company draws on U.S. Census American Community Service data for statistics on locations and adjusts recipients of its survey to obtain representative samples.
As VentureBeat explained, the NYPD and Elucd can use this information to target specific blocks or buildings that complain about excessive use of force or police harassment.
“Instead of developing this invasive software, the NYPD could have just listened to the countless New Yorkers who demonstrated to defund the police. It’s Orwellian to think of the NYPD building out a map, block by block, of how the public views police. And it’s indefensible for the NYPD to try to hide records about this mass surveillance from the public,” STOP executive director Albert Fox Cahn said.

S.T.O.P.’s lawsuit warns that law enforcement could use Elucd’s ‘sentiment meter’ to target specific people or worse.
Invasive data collection undermines public trust and safety. By creating a heat map indicating that people in a certain area are distrustful of the police, the NYPD is developing a system that could lead to an increase in unnecessary police stops and interactions, unfair over-policing based on discrimination in these neighborhoods, and the potential for retaliation against people in areas the NYPD, through the Sentiment Meter, deems the enemies of law enforcement—all without any public scrutiny, awareness, or oversight.
Imagine downloading one of the 50,000 apps that post police survey questions on your smartphone. Now imagine being asked to answer a local police survey questionnaire in English, Spanish, Chinese, and Russian once a month.
What happens to people who respond negatively to questions like “Do the police in my neighborhood treat local residents with respect?” and “How safe do you feel in your neighborhood?”
What do you think will happen? Could they be targeted by ICE or local law enforcement for responding negatively?
Don’t forget, Elucd was co-developed by a police department with close ties to FBI and the DHS.
As the Gothamist explains,
Earlier this month, the NYPD claimed that agents from the Federal Bureau of Investigation were being stationed in Brooklyn police precincts. According to NY1, it was part of “Operation Safe Streets,” a supposedly new program to allow law enforcement to pursue weapons charges in federal court, avoiding the state’s legal system and recently passed bail reforms.
The NYPD is in so deep with the Feds it will make your stomach turn.
This past July, Newsweek reported that acting DHS Deputy Secretary Ken Cuccinelli called on NYPD officers to join their ranks.
“Come join our team, where you will be appreciated by your political leadership instead of being belittled and treated like you are the problem instead of part of the solution,” Cuccinelli said.
When it comes to police sentiment questionnaires, there is a lot more going on than law enforcement is telling the public.
Why would 15 police departments and city governments use Elucd’s questionnaires to gauge people’s sentiments if they were 100% anonymous? And why would the largest police department in America spend $3 million dollars developing a public sentiment meter company if it could not actually identify and flag individual people or areas?
Hollywood’s disconnect from the reality of what is happening to America’s law enforcement and how they are being turned into government spy agencies is abominable.

Starting Monday , a helicopter registered to the U.S. Department of Energy ’ s National Nuclear Security Administration ( DOE/NNSA ) , equipped with specialized sensors , will measure and map radiation levels across downtown Washington , D.C. and the surrounding metro area , read a government press release .
NNSA ’ s Nuclear Emergency Support Team ( NEST ) aircraft , a Bell 412 utility helicopter outfitted “ with sensitive , state-of-the-art passive radiation sensing technology ” will fly across the region at “ 150 feet ( or higher ) above the ground at a speed of approximately 80 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ” of radiation levels as part of security efforts ahead of the presidential inauguration on Jan. 20 .
The low-flying flights across the District will continue through Nov. 6 , at a rate of about two per day .
The agency wants to survey and update its radiation maps in the event of a nuclear or radiological incident .

Starting Monday, a helicopter registered to the U.S. Department of Energy’s National Nuclear Security Administration (DOE/NNSA), equipped with specialized sensors, will measure and map radiation levels across downtown Washington, D.C. and the surrounding metro area, read a government press release.
NNSA’s Nuclear Emergency Support Team (NEST) aircraft, a Bell 412 utility helicopter outfitted “with sensitive, state-of-the-art passive radiation sensing technology” will fly across the region at “150 feet (or higher) above the ground at a speed of approximately 80 mph” to conduct “aerial surveys” of radiation levels as part of security efforts ahead of the presidential inauguration on Jan. 20.
The low-flying flights across the District will continue through Nov. 6, at a rate of about two per day. The agency wants to survey and update its radiation maps in the event of a nuclear or radiological incident.

The Warzone said in early June NNSA’s helicopter was deployed in the District but wasn’t certain if radiation readings were scheduled or in response to civil unrest.
“There’s been no such incident in Washington, D.C., but NNSA does send the AMS-equipped helicopters to conduct mapping surveys of background radiation ahead of significant public events, such as presidential visits or Super Bowls. The helicopters then fly additional patrols of the area afterward to monitor for any concerning changes,” said The Warzone.
Jay Tilden, NNSA’s Associate Administrator for Counterterrorism and Counterproliferation, told Defense News last year, “We deploy the helicopter right as a security bubble is being established around a major public event.”
“Oftentimes in a city, you’ll find a hospital or a cancer treatment center, and so that will pop up depending on the location of the source and what it’s in [and] that will show [in the mapped data] and it will allow then the local and/or the federal officials to determine that it should be there,” said Tilden in 2019.
The agency’s latest statement said: “NNSA is making the public aware of the upcoming flights, so citizens who see the low-flying aircraft are not alarmed.”
While NNSA indicates the radiation sniffing helicopter is being deployed for matters related to the presidential inauguration – maybe – or perhaps – there are more imminent threats situated around or after the Nov. 3 elections.
