We do not consent to Smart Water Meters

We, the undersigned, petition Haringey Council to request that Utility Companies respect the STOP Notice that withdraws Implied Consent for the installation of Smart (Water) Meters or any Surveillance Device.

Why is this important?

Haringey residents have six concerns about the Smart Meter installation programme:

1. Not being consulted prior to installation;

2. Not compulsory (?);

3. Penalise poor people who live in crowded homes;

4. Risk to the health of humans, animals, pollinators, trees and plants;

"10. The World Health Organisation’s International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) categorised RF EMFs as a Possible CARCINOGEN (Group 2B), the same as lead, DDT, chloroform & methylmercury (31 May 2011)".

"11. Dr Andrew Goldsworthy’s research warned that electromagnetically-conditioned water flow could strip lead from pipes (after firstly removing limescale) leading to lead poisoning. (1998, 2007, 2012 and 2016)".

5. Surveillance of water, gas and electric usage; and

6. Security risk through (nuclear) electromagnetic pulse attacks, space weather and hacking (“cybercrime”).

Our focus is on Smart Water Meters but not exclusively.

Full details about the Stop Smart Meters Haringey campaign can be found on our website below.

This petition will be initially delivered to Haringey Council.

The target is 2,200+

How it will be delivered

If our petition exceeds 10,000, the campaign would like to work with other seasoned campaigners to set up a national campaign against Smart Water “Meters”.

The campaign is under review to maximise the probability of achieving our strategic objectives.

For now:
1. The text "***Please sign the petition only if you are a resident in the London Borough of Haringey***" that was above "Why is this important?" has been removed because we have some signatures outside Haringey.

2. The text in the section "Why is this important?" has been slightly amended to better align with the Home Page of our Website.

A further update will be made, if applicable.

The text with respect to Health Risks of Smart (Water) Meters has been enhanced to reflect our outreach activities in the borough and our ongoing research.

The latest version of our "Notice of Non-Consent for Smart Meter Installations, Notice of Liability" now includes citations.
