However, there is debate as to what causes decline in e.g. bee populations. What modifications to environment, introduced by humans, cause death and misbehavior of bees. Many claim...

Effect of the electric field at 50 Hz and variable intensities on biochemical markers in the honey bee’s hemolymph

June 26, 2021
Migdał P, Murawska A, Bieńkowski P, Strachecka A, Roman A (2021) Effect of the electric field at 50 Hz and variable intensities on biochemical markers in the honey bee’s hemolymph. PLoS ONE 16(6): e0252858. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0252858 Abstract The amount of artificial electromagnetic fields of various parameters in the honey bee’s environment increases globally. So far, it...

Effects of radiofrequency electromagnetic radiation (RF-EMF) on honey bee queen development and mating success.

January 29, 2019
Sci Total Environ. 2019 Jan 15;661:553-562. doi: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2019.01.154. [Epub ahead of print] Abstract Mobile phones can be found almost everywhere across the globe, upholding a direct point-to-point connection between the device and the broadcast tower. The emission of radiofrequency electromagnetic fields (RF-EMF) puts the surrounding environment inevitably into contact with this radiation. We have therefore...

Extremely Low Frequency Electromagnetic Fields impair the Cognitive and Motor Abilities of Honey Bees

May 25, 2018
Shepherd, S., Lima, M.A.P., Oliveira, E.E. et al. Extremely Low Frequency Electromagnetic Fields impair the Cognitive and Motor Abilities of Honey Bees. Sci Rep 8, 7932 (2018). https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-018-26185-y Abstract Extremely low frequency electromagnetic field (ELF EMF) pollution from overhead powerlines is known to cause biological effects across many phyla, but these effects are poorly understood. Honey bees are important pollinators...

Cellular Deception

December 14, 2016
As the global push to sell us faster data intensifies, cell antennas are being installed on utility poles right by our homes, often without our knowledge or consent. Science warns that the artificial electromagnetic frequencies (EMF) these microcells emit disrupts wildlife, humans, and all living cells.

Exposure to extremely low frequency electromagnetic fields alters the behaviour, physiology and stress protein levels of desert locusts

November 29, 2016
Wyszkowska, J., Shepherd, S., Sharkh, S. et al. Exposure to extremely low frequency electromagnetic fields alters the behaviour, physiology and stress protein levels of desert locusts. Sci Rep 6, 36413 (2016). https://doi.org/10.1038/srep36413 Abstract Electromagnetic fields (EMFs) are present throughout the modern world and are derived from many man-made sources including overhead transmission lines. The risks of extremely-low frequency (ELF) electromagnetic...
