Effects of Radiation from Cell towers a serious Health Hazards!!

India's development in the field of Science & Technology was substantial from British period. Telecommunication has become especially important  in recent years because of the enormous growth of I.T & its potential impact on rest of the economy. The popularity of the cell phones & wireless communication devices has resulted in a proliferation of cell towers across the city. While all of us have had our share of fun with mobile technology , it is now time to introspect & study the problems that one could face because of cell phone towers being installed in residential areas .
The Mobile phone towers crowding the city's sky line are making the air toxic for you. There are indicative studies to prove that these radiations are harmful for people living  in a 300 meter radius of the towers. It is very unfortunate to see huge cell towers thronging the roof tops in & around the residential apartments, hospitals, schools & educational institutions  & this has become more or less a common sight in cities across India & elsewhere.
# The younger the child, the deeper is the penetration of EMR as children's skulls are thinner.
# Children,adolescents & pregnant women could be at the maxim. risk.
# Radiation from Mobile Towers poses grave health risks including memory loss, lack of concentration & digestive disturbances.
# The Radiation effects to the disappearance of butterflies , bees , insects & sparrows.
# According to established norms , the radiation level of 600 milliwatts per m.sqm
 is considered  safe. But Mobile phone Towers  emit electro - magnetic rays above safe limit.
# Being exposed to the thermal effect could cause fatigue, cataracts & reduced mental concentration.
# There is non- thermal effect which affects people who are at a distance from the tower. the ill-effects of a non-thermal effect are membrane permeability.
# The number of of people having health problems is more in the areas where radiation levels are high. These towers are like deadly weapons for all living beings.
