Radiation impact from Cell Phones and Towers on Human Health and Environment - A Review

Abstract

The main key points discussed in the research paper are radiation impact from cell phones and towers electromagnetic waves on human health such as head and brain tumors, other morbidity-related outcomes and summarizes the biological effects of radio frequency (RF) and microwave radiation. The report shows that the evidence available does not provide a clear pattern to support an association between exposure to RF and microwave radiation from mobile phones and direct effects on health. It however cautions that lack of available evidence of detrimental effects on health should not be interpreted as evidence of absence of such effects and recommends a precautionary approach to the use of this communication technology until more scientific evidence becomes available. ; “These days we have Smartphones, Smartcards, Smartboards, Smart everything, but consider this: if technology is getting smarter, does that mean humans are getting dumber (ignore)?”
