We cannot see the waves, we cannot hear them, we cannot touch them, but they are all around us, invading the air, irradiating our body and the environment.
An Invisible Threat looks at the relationship between microwave technology and health, investigating the conflicts of interest among industry representatives, politicians, scientists and consumers that leave us unprotected to the effects of radiation.
A highly informative documentary about the issues surrounding microwave radiation.
Have you ever stopped to think of how cell phones and cell phone towers may be emitting harmful radiation? Have you ever heard of reports here and there that this may be a scientifically viable theory? Well, a well-produced documentary titled “An Invisible Threat” is something you may find informative, as it delves into the health impacts of the increasing amounts of microwave radiation inundating the entire planet.
The film begins by showing us American newscasts of anchors in the 1970s reporting on high levels of radiation at the U.S. Embassy in Russia. They posit that the Russians are possibly using microwaves to jam eavesdropping equipment used by the Americans. The scene suddenly shifts to modern times and shows multitudes of people walking around while talking on their cell phones.
While cellphones were unheard of 50 years ago, radiation levels—except in the rare cases that the newscasters pointed out—were much, much lower in general. Transpose that with today, where nearly everyone has a cell phone.
A condition known as electromagnetic hypersensitivity syndrome, where certain people are particularly vulnerable to radiation, was relatively low even up to the beginning of the 1980s. But throughout the past few decades, with the onset of such things as personal computers and cellphones, people who have electromagnetic hypersensitivity syndrome account for approximately 10 percent of the population. In the film, that number was projected to rapidly increase in the “next 5 to 10 years.” What’s so concerning is that projection was given 8 years ago when the film was made back in 2014.
Minerva Palomar discusses how microwave radiation has affected her in “An Invisible Threat.” (Imago Producciones)
A Spanish woman named Minerva Palomar is one such person who has electromagnetic hypersensitivity syndrome. She explains that she first started noticing a mix of symptoms that included powerful headaches, spasms, nausea, and a feeling of overall weakness around the time a cell phone tower was installed close to her residence.
Manuel Desco, of the Scientific Advisory Committee on Radio Frequencies and Health, points out that numerous people have reported symptoms similar to those experienced by Palomar, either after cell phone towers were installed, or after using cell phones over extended periods of time.
Olle Johansson, Director of the Department of Neuroscience Karolinska Institute in Sweden, has studied the effects of electromagnetic radiation on humans, plants, and animals extensively. He says that heightened levels of electromagnetic energy aren’t meant to be in the normal functioning environments on Earth.
As Johansson describes it, the planet’s various biological systems were never designed to have electromagnetic waves inundating them. But the more that it happens, the more adverse effects these waves have on these biological systems—such as cancer and other “alterations” that destroy the very bonds of our DNA molecules.
He adds that the natural levels of microwave radiation on the planet have always been extremely low. But in modern times that has all changed. He likens this change to suddenly “turning a knob” and ratcheting up these levels to bombard humans, plants, and animals with microwaves that they were never designed to withstand.
The documentary goes on to interview various people who are well-informed on the subject of microwave radiation and electromagnetic hypersensitivity syndrome. Through these interviews with scientists, investigative journalists, and others, we learn that certain forces in society minimize or altogether ignore the health effects of widespread radiation. Certain organizations that were tasked with studying cell phone use and its relation to microwave radiation were mysteriously “manipulated.”
The question then becomes, what are we, as a collective society, going to do about this ever-expanding problem?
I found this film to not only be highly informative but also very prescient since we live in an age where most people blindly trust technology—particularly anything to do with microwaves—evidenced by our seeming dependence on cell phones. Part of the problem (and what’s so insidious about it) is that the numerous health effects caused by electromagnetic radiation are caused by something that we can’t see, hear, or touch, even though these harmful waves are bombarding our bodies all the time.
“An Invisible Threat” is a well-produced documentary that not only delves into the increasingly severe effects of radiation on all life on the planet, but also the many conflicts of interest among governments, politicians, lobbyists, so-called “health” organizations, private industries, and the military.
