SF Cell Phone Radiation Right to Know Ordinance

San Francisco introduces the country's first cell phone radiation disclosure law, requiring all cell phone retailers in San Francisco to disclose radiation levels (SAR values) of each device at the point of sale.

Thanks to the hard work from the following organizations to get this ordinance passed!

CTIA lobbyist tried to extort the mayor by pulling a $80 mln annual conference from being held in SF.  This mayor has balls and few peers.

I hope cell will someday get banned all together. They are evil.

Really great video. I cant believe that you mayor had such courage to do that. I know that step by step we are getting information that we should know each day. I hope that this does grow out of San Francisco. I always go to ewg's website and look up at their research.

Interesting to hear what these folks have to say. One thing, though: could you turn on the auto-captions? They're not perfect, but it would at be helpful to have a transcript.
