It seems
extraordinary, that despite knowing the possible carcinogenic risks of modern
cell phones, schools are still allowing mobile phones in class. In fact one school in Aberdeen is drawing up plans to buy mobile
phones for any student who doesn’t yet have one!
The Scottish
council which is currently in consultation for a number of controversial school
closures in the area has sparked outrage by announcing the proposal to spend an
estimated £860,000 to equip every student
with a smart phone.
The aim is,
apparently, to allow both primary and secondary school pupils to use their handsets
in class, utilizing the new wi-fi systems that have been installed.
I don’t
know what’s worse? The extraordinary waste
of money or the likely adverse health effects of the sea of radiation emitted
by the phones and the new wi-fi system?
With the
mire of radiation coursing through the classrooms, the chances of adverse long
term health effects are going to increase exponentially. And I
thought that schools were supposed to ensure the welfare of their students?
