What is not widely acknowledged is that this will also result in unprecedented environmental change on a global scale. Every person on Earth will have instant access to super-high-speed, low- latency wireless communications from any point on the planet, even in rainforests, mid-ocean and the Antarctic. Virtually everything we own and buy, from refrigerators and washing machines to milk cartons, hairbrushes and infants’ diapers, will contain antennas and microchips and will be connected wirelessly to the Internet. We will have “smart” homes, “smart” businesses, “smart” highways, “smart” cities and self-driving cars. This is set to deliver what is acknowledged to be unprecedented societal change on a global scale. Telecommunications companies worldwide, with the support of governments, are poised within the next two years to roll out the fifth-generation wireless network (5G). The deployment of 5G constitutes an experiment on humanity and the environment that is defined as a crime under international law. RF radiation has been proven harmful for humans and the environment. 5G will massively increase exposure to radio frequency (RF) radiation on top of the 2G, 3G and 4G networks for telecommunications already in place. We the undersigned scientists, doctors, environmental organizations and citizens from (_) countries, urgently call for a halt to the deployment of the 5G (fifth generation) wireless network, including 5G from space satellites.
