Save by using compact fluorescents! Did you know that lighting comprises nearly 20 percent of the electric energy we use in our homes? By installing ENERGY STAR-qualified compact fluorescent lightbulbs (CFL), you can help reduce your electric costs and overall demand, since CFLs use approximately 25 percent of the electricity of similar incandescent bulbs.

Local and state-wide activist groups, including ByramCARES, Delaware Riverkeeper Network, Environment New Jersey, New Jersey Environmental Federation, New Jersey Highlands Coalition, New Jersey Sierra Club and Stop The Lines have been organizing and working hard to address this project. If you are a member of any or all of these groups, thank you for your help. If you are not, consider joining them and supporting the good work they are doing for all of us.
THE PRECAUTIONARY PRINCIPLE IN THE REAL WORLD
One of the biggest concerns is the health and safety of our children and ourselves, and for those of you not aware of a concept called the precautionary principle (click here for a definition, courtesy of Dr. Peter Montague and the Environmental Research Foundation), it basically states the following:"When an activity raises threats of harm to human health or the environment,
precautionary measures should be taken even if some cause and effect
relationships are not fully established scientifically.In this context the proponent of an activity, rather than the public, should
bear the burden of proof.The process of applying the Precautionary Principle must be open, informed
and democratic and must include potentially affected parties. It must also
involve an examination of the full range of alternatives, including no action."Aside from questioning the need for this massive and expensive infrastructure project, the precautionary principle is the strongest argument we can make for protecting our health. It would be good to begin familiarizing ourselves with it.
PSE&G has recently updated their "Susquehanna-Roseland Reliability Project" web page. Included on that page is a link to "Learn more about the Susquehanna-Roseland project. View the informational video" which is a mini-infomercial on increased power consumption that - SURPRISE - does not even mention "energy conservation." Granted, there is one vague reference to "promoting conservation" when speaking about protecting the environment and visually showing work on the Cohansey River Watershed Wetland Restoration Site. But wouldn't the visuals of over-loaded wall sockets and extensions be the PERFECT opportunity to call out the fact that we all need to be more conscientious about our electric usage?

We are asking our local representatives to urge PSE&G to please put this project on hold until more studies can be done to assure the safety of our citizens. We are also hopeful that PSE&G will look at other options – we do not see the need for more power to be brought across our lands, and cannot understand why PSE&G doesn’t look at other alternative options and live up to the “green” and “citizen friendly” standards that they claim to live by.

We are an all-volunteer group of concerned residents, landowners, business owners, and friends in eastern Pennsylvania. We have come together in a true grassroots effort in opposition to a proposed high-voltage transmission line by PPL. This proposed line will begin in Berwick, Pennsylvania and end in Roseland, New Jersey with the sole intention of exporting power to New Jersey and New York. We believe that there will be no benefit locally in Northampton or Lehigh Counties.

EMF: Richard Box's Graphic Demonstrations
Are EMFs harmful? Are WiFi routers and cellphones frying our brains? While the scientific consensus in North America suggests we need not worry, the art of Richard Box gives us serious pause. Box takes several thousand fluorescent tubes and "plants" them under power lines. "The piece is simple yet spectacular, making visible what would otherwise go unnoticed. The FIELD of tubes will flicker in to life across the hillside as the early evening light fades. The performance each evening is hard to anticipate as the daily operation of the electricity supply will differ and is always dependent on the weather."

Information on Electric and Magnetic Fields (EMF) Radiation from Power Lines
Electric and magnetic fields (EMF) are invisible lines of force that surround any electrical device that is plugged in and turned on. EMF are made up of waves of electric and magnetic energy moving together (radiating) through space. Electric fields are produced by electric charges and magnetic fields are produced by the flow of current through wires or electrical devices.

Press Release: Serious Public Health Concerns Raised Over Exposure to Electromagnetic Fields (EMF) from Powerlines and Cell Phones. An international working group of scientists, researchers and public health policy professionals (The BioInitiative Working Group) has released its report on electromagnetic fields (EMF) and health. They document serious scientific concerns about current limits regulating how much EMF is allowable from power lines, cell phones, and many other sources of EMF exposure in daily life.
The report concludes the existing standards for public safety are inadequate to protect public health. Click here for the full BioInitiative Report
Electro Magnetic Radiation Policy Institute
The Mission of The EMR Policy Institute is to foster a better understanding of the environmental and human biological effects from exposure to electro-magnetic radiation. Their goal is to work at the federal, state and international levels to foster appropriate, unbiased research and to create better cooperation between federal regulatory agencies with a stake in public health in order to mitigate unnecessary exposures that may be deemed to be hazardous.
Powerwatch
A small group of knowledgeable engineers and scientists in the U.K., Powerwatch is a non-profit independent organisation with a central role in the UK Electromagnetic Field and Microwave Radiation health debate. We work closely with decision-makers in government and business, and with other like-minded groups, promoting policies for a safer environment.

This paper discusses a recommended procedure for performing electromagnetic field (EMF) or electro-magnetic radiation EMR measurements either by engaging a professional or by consumers using low-cost instruments which measure EMF exposure levels in gauss or milligauss.
A Ruling Allows Damages for Fear of High-Voltage Power Lines
Landowners whose property is seized for construction of high-voltage power lines can collect damages if the value of the rest of their property falls because of public fears about safety, New York State's highest court ruled unanimously yesterday.The State Court of Appeals said owners seeking compensation did not need to present scientific proof that power lines pose a health risk. But the judges said that "claimants must still establish some prevalent perception" that power lines were the reason their land was worth less. (Click here to read entire story)
Childhood cancer in relation to distance from high voltage power lines in England and Wales: a case-control study
Conclusions There is an association between childhood leukaemia and proximity of home address at birth to high voltage power lines, and the apparent risk extends to a greater distance than would have been expected from previous studies. About 4% of children in England and Wales live within 600 m of high voltage lines at birth. If the association is causal, about 1% of childhood leukaemia in England and Wales would be attributable to these lines, though this estimate has considerable statistical uncertainty.
Brodeur Testifies Before Nebraska Legislature
Provides Evidence that Power Line EMF’s Cancer Link is Conclusive
Award-winning author Paul Brodeur was asked by the EMF citizen activists group POWER (People Organized for Wise Energy Representation) to address the Natural Resources Committee of the Nebraska State Legislature on February 8, 1995 in connection with a proposed 96 mile, 345,000 volt electric transmission line. This page is a transcript of Mr. Brodeur's testimony.
High Voltage Power Lines - How Safe Are They?
The largest study yet of electricity and cancer found no solid evidence that living near high-voltage lines causes childhood leukemia, as some have feared.Editor Comment: As indicated above, these studies are inconclusive. However, we still feel it is safer to err on the side of caution and will continue to warn transferring families about potential risks of buying a home near high-voltage power lines.
BATTLE OVER HIGH-VOLTAGE POWER LINES HEATS UP AGAIN
A battle over high-voltage power line hazards has returned to the Legislature, this time with a call for limits on electromagnetic fields - limits that utilities vow to fight.Research done by at least one major university and by state health officials, including one in Washington, has linked some incidents of cancer to exposure to electromagnetic fields, but experts say the results don't conclusively show the fields are harmful.
