  • “The internet slips into three types of logistics; bulky items which need a network of centres; fast moving goods which can go through the post which do not require specific locations relying on 3PL couriers; and food which in the UK started out as pick-in store and now devolving into state of the art e-fulfilment centres which need to be close to consumers by its very nature.”

Wireless Technology Health Risks - 0 views

  • excessive use of cell phones can cause tumors and even cancer, but many have dismissed these reports as unfounded.
  • there may be health risks associated with wireless technology. According to Fawcett, “Radio frequency radiation–the kind of radiation we’re exposed to from sources like cell phones, wireless routers, and other wireless technologies–may have biological and health effects. Of the hundreds of studies conducted, 47 percent found increased cancer risks, 69 percent found disruptions to cell function, 77 percent found disruptions to electrical signaling in the body, and 83 percent found neurological, physiological, and behavioral effects.”
  • there is significant evidence of harm in the form of cancer (including childhood leukemia), nerve and brain damage, DNA damage, increased stress response, and decreased immune response, all as a result of increased exposure to EMF because of wireless routers, cell phones, and other wireless technologies.
