Deborah Tavares tells why Smart Meters are a health risk that will bankrupt households

Deborah Tavares is a Northern California property owner and activist who has sounded the alarm about the underhanded plan underway to force everyone in the U.S. to have Smart Meters installed in their homes and businesses.


Smart Meters needs to be a HOT ISSUE right now because it involves everyone of every political persuasion – left or right; Democrat, Republican, or Independent. Your political party affiliation doesn’t matter.

Smart Meters emit harmful radiation that has caused people to get sick. Unfortunately, government officials are taking a blind-eye approach to reported problems associated with Smart Meters.

With the backing of billions in federal stimulus money, utility companies are actively embarked on a plan to dictate both utility costs and usage. Even worse, we have a classic case where major media (MSNBC) is in bed with companies (General Electric) that are poised to reap huge profits from the sale of all the mandated appliances that will be required in order to use the new system. IMAGINE THE COST OF REPLACING ALL YOUR HOUSEHOLD APPLIANCES! Moreover, Smart Meters will make it possible for utility companies to shut off your electricity remotely.

As a first step in fighting back, Deborah recommends that everyone log onto the Refuse Smart Meters website that contains relevant articles of interest as well as links for purchasing weather-durable tags, signs, and labels you can use to prevent these meters from being installed on your property.

    Skelton, Taintor & Abbott Wins Landmark Smart Meter Case
    May 25, 2011

    On behalf of several Maine residents, Skelton, Taintor & Abbott secured a landmark decision that will benefit utility customers throughout the country. Alan Stone, chair of the firm’s energy law group, successfully convinced the Maine Public Utilities Commission (MPUC) to find that it was an unjust and unreasonable practice for Central Maine Power Company (CMP) to refuse to permit residential and small commercial customers to opt-out of CMP’s smart meter program.

    Smart Meters likely emit 100 times the amount of cumulative whole body exposure to microwave radiation than that of a cell phone … Most utility industry studies only account for one Smart Meter on a home, but with the addition of natural gas and water Smart Meters, the risks are tripled. And imagine the effects from clusters of Smart Meters on apartment houses!

    Capitola, CA – Last Wednesday, more than a dozen Santa Cruz County residents – including mothers and grandmothers – assembled outside Pacific Gas and Electric’s Capitola Payment Center with their unwanted wireless electric meters in hand, and spoke about what prompted them to defy their utility and replace the ‘smart’ meter on their homes with widely available analog meters. Late last week, PG&E sent letters threatening to disconnect power to those who returned their ‘smart’ meters on Wednesday, including a family of four with headaches and a single woman in her seventies.

    The Board of the American Academy of Environmental Medicine opposes the installation of wireless “smart meters” in homes and schools based on a scientific assessment of the current medical literature (references available on request). Chronic exposure to wireless radiofrequency radiation is a preventable environmental hazard that is sufficiently well documented to warrant immediate preventative public health action.

    Death Rays from the Sutro Tower – that overshadows San Francisco. Death from above in the form of Rays that you cant see but are going right through you.

    “Wars like bridges are engineered. The illuminazi has escalated the electronic attack upon the people of the planet. There can be no question their intent is to radically reduce the population of earth. Their goal is to take out 95% of us. Our new film and clips concerning the Smart Murder Meters which are being installed in the US in excess of 140 million validates this. The daily death dumps dropping toxic poisons upon our families revalidates it. They are out to kill us and we need your help to expose these basxxxxs now, it cant wait.”

    Could you post that Devvy Kidd is about to go to Austin to present a case to the TX Public Util. Commiss. This hearing will address health issues related to the meter.

    She is inviting others to sign up as plaintiffs, and for any donations (for her attorney) that can comfortably be made. Plaintiffs are not required to attend the hearing, but can speak if they wish.

    I just read that it all begins 2/23, so there are only a few days left to take action and show your support.

    Esp. if you’re in TX, this is a way you can let your voice be heard about this meter. This is so very, very important, and the util cos and Oncor sure don’t give a durn. Because TX is so large, it normally sets trends for other states. Even if you don’t live in TX, your support will help all anti-meter efforts across the country.

    PO Box 997315
    Sacramento, California 95899-9900

    Dear Ms. Burt:

    We received your unsigned certified letter about your SmartMeter Program. This letter is to inform you that, despite your coercive attempts to force ratepayers into your program, we refuse to have SmartMeters installed at our house. The so-called “choices” you offer are no choices at all. Since we have never had Smart Meters, we find it outrageous that you should now try to charge us initial plus monthly fees for a service that we have paid for and you have delivered trouble free (and at minimal costs) for decades!

    To be clear, we never opted into your SmartMeter Program. One cannot be said to “opt in” where coercion and pressure is used. And because we have never opted into it, we cannot opt out. Therefore, your proposed “choices” and associated fees do not apply to us.
