Health Risk Concerns with Smart Meters

Apparently, electromagnetic radiation and radio waves that are emitted from Smart Meters, may pose health risks, especially to those individuals with sensitivity to electromagnetic radiation. Pacific Gas & Electric's smart meter installation project set to begin in July 2010 (California), has been halted because of raising health concerns. Pacific Gas is arguing that the low levels emitted are actually safe and are no cause for concern - the company also believes that part of the complaining is due to consumers not being educated enough about the role of smart meters and how the help to conserve energy.
