Generation Zapped : How the Digital Technology Age Impacts Us
Watch Award-Winning Film Generation Zapped With Loved Ones & Colleagues!
Wireless technology concerns have recently been the subject of media attention. More research into this area indicates that unlimited access and exposure can be biologically harmful. Digital addictions and physical illnesses from wireless radiation exposure are becoming prominent with little understanding or education for users about how their technology could be affecting them. It is this lack of education and information for users that prompted Sabine El Gemayel to create the film Generation Zapped. “As a mother of teenagers I am concerned with the shadow side of wireless technology on our children. I am troubled by the increased health risks and how it is sociologically impacting children’s development and behaviour. As a citizen and consumer, I am disturbed by the business ethics behind the wireless revolution and its ubiquitous use in schools, at work, and at home.” says El Gemayel.
Hear Directly from World Experts
Generation Zapped features leading world experts in wireless radiation who explain how the microwave radiation from cell towers, cell phones, wireless routers, electronic tablets, utility “smart” meters, baby monitors, gaming devices, wearables and more can damage our health and environment. We learn how microwave radiation from wireless technology hits our central nervous system, the immune system and our reproductive systems especially hard. This technology can also disrupt our circadian rhythm. Long-term concerns discussed in Generation Zapped include DNA mutations, cancers, infertility, autism, Alzheimer’s and more.
Many Already Feel the Effects
In the short-term, the film indicates adults and children alike may be experiencing symptoms of microwave sickness, or electromagnetic radiation syndrome. Many today suffer from unexplained headaches, insomnia, nosebleeds, fatigue, skin heating/rashes/tingling, cognitive impairment, behavior issues, learning disabilities, anxiety, depression and suicidal ideation.
Consumers seldom connect these ailments to microwave radiation exposures and the medical community in most countries has not been trained to recognize electrical sensitivities. Patients are left to endure the effects of microwave radiation with no guidance to reduce their exposures.
Learn Why Wireless Technology Was Never Safety Tested
Generation Zapped also explains how wireless technology was brought to market with no safety testing, and how the government agency responsible for establishing public radiation exposure limits has no mandate to ensure those limits are biologically safe. The film further discusses the cancer classification given by the World Health Organization.
Take Advantage of this Screening Opportunity!
While arrangements are made for the public distribution of Generation Zapped later this year, this 74-minute film is being screened throughout the world at film festivals, in communities, and in private viewings. It is now widely available through streaming services, including the streaming services offered by many public libraryies (Kanopy, Hoopla).
Safer Screentime is pleased to partner with this award-winning film to further our shared goals of educating the public on the biological hazards of wireless technology and offer solutions to access today’s technology more safely. “Safer Screentime has been asked to co-host a number of screenings in Massachusetts, as well as at the National Institutes of Health, and it has been enlightening to see so many citizens come out to see this film. Parents, grandparents, students, teachers, school administrators, medical professionals, municipal leaders, engineers, business owners and more have been so grateful to hear directly from the scientists, doctors, patients and public health experts featured in the film.” says Cece Doucette, Director of Education Services at Safer Screentime, whose work in helping her children’s schools become the first in the U.S. to adopt Best Practices for Mobile Devices, is featured in the film.
