SAFE G: Empowering Resilient Communities


Mission. To empower local communities to design immediate and effective SAFE G solutions that implement optical fiber wired to the home and office. Local taxpayers and ratepayers are entitled to this alternative to wireless, because they have already paid for it. Please see: Irregulators v. FCC.

5G/AI/Internet of Things Juggernaut presents an imminent threat. The harms to our community’s physical and mental health, the local environment, violations of citizen’s rights to due process, property, and personal privacy are foreseeable and preventable. The threat is especially dangerous to our children, elderly people, those with special sensitivities, disabled persons with chronic illnesses, caregivers, and our economically disadvantaged and minority communities that have no escape in their homes or workplaces.

Remedy: Community Empowerment: An effective remedy begins with widespread education and training in a proven system of wise leadership, community organization, team building, and negotiation. With this purpose we have created a 5G Dojo to support local communities around the world that are facing similar challenges. The key is to share negotiation successes and practical experience, so these lessons can be immediately deployed within the network. Equally essential is to fortify community-wide resilience rapidly and effectively. (See: 5 Minutes toResilience)

Halting the Assault by 80,000+ 5G/6G+ Satellites

EPIC STORY: Humankind stands at a precipice from which there will be no return: A Great 21st Century Space Rush is now underway by commercial enterprises and the military, fomented and enabled in the U.S. by the FCC and other U.S. government agencies to grab, deploy, transform, and own the Heavens for private gain, defense, and weaponization. Over the next 10 years 80,000+ non-stationary low orbit satellites will be launched and seamlessly integrated in terrestrial 4G/5G/6G+ industrial and military networks (“Space Fence”). Scores of new satellites are being launched every week from the U.S. and other countries.

Since the beginnings of our time on earth we humans, and perhaps other species, have revered the skies. The Heavens are the spiritual wellspring of many cultures. This accelerating human-caused catastrophe will substantially compound the existing biological and environmental harms of 4G/5G/6G non-ionizing electromagnetic (RF and embedded ELF (extremely low frequencies), enable remote manipulation of biological systems, further erode personal privacy, expand government surveillance, present new risks of satellite collisions, interfere with meteorological prediction and astronomical research, litter the skies with satellite debris, and endanger national and global security.

The Heavens must belong to no one. Quite the opposite, numerous international treaties, conventions, and other legally enforceable commitments affirm they are held in Public Trust for all of humanity and the living world. Nations and people everywhere are the fiduciaries of this Public Trust. They possess the legal means and the power to ensure that the exploration of this new frontier, the Heavens, if it must proceed, is approached with humility and wisdom.

Restoring Balance to the Satellite Program

Mission: To require the FCC and other federal agencies to follow established principles and procedures that are well-recognized by international treaty, the U.S. Constitution, federal statutes, state laws and local ordinances–—now even more relevant and critical during a national corona emergency—  to carefully assess all risks, costs, and viable alternatives before permitting the implementation of a blanket license of 1 million earth stations and accelerating the launch of 50,000-100,000 satellites.

Safeguard National Security—To compel a careful re-examination of the national security risks of over-reliance on a 5G/wireless infrastructure when a viable, safer, more secure, energy efficient, job generating, and vastly less expensive alternative– optical fiber wired infrastructure— is readily available and has already been paid for by taxpayers and ratepayers.

Case Docket

Administrative Challenges on Satellites and Other Matters

Case Docket. To date the BALANCE GROUP and Swankin & Turner have initiated the following actions with the FCC:

Comments in response to FCC request on modification of current RFR health standards (filed June 17, 2020)

  • Amicus Brief on behalf of the Building Biology Institute in Children’s Health Defense and Environmental Health Trust v. FCC (June 2020)
  • Opposition to SpaceX request to launch 30,000 new satellites (July 2020)
  • Petition for Rulemaking to the FCC to require full and complete compliance with NEPA and other federal statutes, and the adoption and expedited implementation of specific protective rules in consultation with other government agencies. (July/August 2020)
  • Petition for Rulemaking to the FDA to develop safe health standards and science-based rules for RFR public and occupational exposure in collaboration with the FCC (July/August 2020)

Countdown

The Healthy Heavens Trust Initiative is building an International Brain Trust of legal and other experts to assist the FCC and other U.S. federal agencies in formulating a wise, balanced, and protective framework  for the launch and deployment of low orbit non-geostationary satellites.
