CPUC President doesn’t want to answer your g*dd*mn questions, now shut up!

President Michael R. PeeveyThe California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) is responsible for protecting utility customers and ensuring safe and reliable utility service.

Michael Peevey, the President of the CPUC,  has been in charge of the decisions regarding smart meters.  He approved wireless smart meters without any safety review.  He approved smart meter opt-out fees without any legal review.

Dr. David Carpenter talks about wireless cancer risks and what you can do to protect your family

Dr. David Carpenter is the co-author of the Bioinitiative Report and director of the Institute for Health and the Environment at the University of Albany. He talks about cell phones and brain cancer risk, children’s risk, high intensity pulses from smart meters, 60 HZ fields, radio towers, Obama supported wifi in schools and electrosensitivity.

He says, “the evidence is overwhelming” that cell phones increase your risk of brain cancer, and children are at 5 fold greater risk. He says, “Children are by far the most vulnerable.” Regarding wifi in schools, “everyone will be adversely affected.” The interview concludes with some solutions on what you can do to protect yourself and children.

CPUC delays smart meter opt-out proceeding for the 4th time

The California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) delayed the smart meter opt-out proceeding again, until August, 2014.  The purpose of the proceeding is to determine if the opt opt fees are lawful, and  if communities can opt out.  By law, the CPUC was supposed to resolve this last December.  Considering the CPUC already approved the fees and utilities are charging them, it’s wrong to keep stalling.

Are you refusing to pay smart meter opt out fees? Have you been threatened with a disconnect notice?  Have you had your power cut off by PGE, SCE or SDGE for refusing to pay the fees?  Since the opt-out fees were charged before evidentiary hearings were held, there’s no proof that the fees are lawful.   You can let the CPUC know how you feel about this by writing to the public.advisor@cpuc.ca.gov (Reference proceeding A.11-03014)

Daphna Tachover writes, “When I got sick, about 4.5 years ago, I contacted  Nadav who is an accomplished international Photo-Journalist and also a childhood friend. I called him on the phone and told him what happened to me and we had a long conversation. I was sad & disappointed as it sounded as if he does not believe me. I could not understand how a person who knows me so well for so many years is doubting me…. A year later he called me and said he wants to make a movie about it.”

Smart meter documentary film wins humanitarian award

LA JOLLA, CALIFORNIA – The smart meter documentary film, “Take Back Your Power” has been named this year’s winner of the Indie Fest Annual Humanitarian Award.

Take Back Your Power - Winner, Indie Fest Annual Humanitarian AwardTake Back Your Power follows filmmaker Josh del Sol as he investigates “smart” meter technology, being deployed by utilities and governments to harvest data from within private homes and introduce new pricing schemes. With compelling insight from whistleblowers, government agents, lawyers, environmentalists and doctors, the documentary “exposes corporate corruption and the erosion of human rights in the name of ‘going green’.”

Indie Fest Coordinator Thomas Baker, PhD stated, “Take Back Your Power takes on the daunting yet important task of educating people worldwide about the surveillance, hacking, health, home safety, and consumer cost concerns linked to so-called ‘smart’ utility meters. It was selected out of hundreds of films for our Annual Humanitarian award because it delves into the heart of what is possibly the main problem in our world today: corporations taking over without conscience, and causing extreme levels of harm in the process.”
