Engineered nanoparticles are so small that they are essentially surfaces. They behave differently in the body than other naturally occurring small particles, complicating research. Nevertheless, serious health consequences have been noted.

I live in a small community in So. California. Our winters, while cold, are milder than most other parts of the US. The homeless population is larger in Los Angeles than any other US city, with 50-80,000 people homeless on any given night. This map provides links for obtaining and donating services and support in Tujunga, specifically, and Los Angeles in general. It is likely to be incomplete, but does offer an introduction and overview.

Every wireless phone call, download, use of an app or period of ‘net surfing, causes toxic high frequency electromagnetic (EM) radiation to move at the speed of light through the environment. It travels from tower to tower, affecting living beings in its path.
Can we escape the long-term consequences of this invisible pollution when only a few of us perceive its short-term biological effects? Does our species have the right to pollute the biosphere with unnatural EM radiation, or do all living beings have the right to natural background radiation?
Individuals and governments are making choices and utilizing technologies that adversely affect all of life. This is the tragedy of the commons, an important topic introduced in this map. Thank you to Cindy Sage and Garrett Hardin.
