This episode is the first in a new series with Katie Singer, an expert on the intersection of technology, environmental impact and public health. These episodes are meant to serve as open dialogue about important issues that impact our health and our future.

I first met Katie a few years ago for an eye-opening conversation about the health impacts of cell phones and other electronic usage.

Since that time, Katie has presented critical information about the Internet’s footprint at the UN’s 2018 Forum on Science, Technology & Innovation and, in 2019, on a panel at RealTruthTalks with the climatologist Dr. James Hansen.

Katie’s last book, An Electronic Silent Spring, reports on the health and environmental impacts of exposure to electromagnetic radiation emitted by electronic devices and infrastructure. She’s currently finishing a book about the Internet’s energy use, greenhouse gas emissions, toxic waste, worker hazards and climate impacts.

This is where we spend much of today’s conversation – shining light on the true cost of our addiction to devices and data streaming, how we can reduce our impact as individuals, and what we really need to know about the coming Internet Of Things and 5G.

In future episodes with Katie, we’ll dive deeper into her upcoming paper that explores the hidden truth about electric vehicles, and maybe do a Q & A episode where I ask Katie your biggest questions bout 5G, electric cars, the internet’s footprint, etc.
