RF Safety Issues with Celluar Towers

As per the opinion of  RF safety Solutions expert -  which is stated below .

The major concern over exposure  to RF energy  is heating  of the human body. Workers who climb cellular  towers and get very close to cellular and other wireless services antennas must take care not to be exposed to excessive levels of RF energy , which is the reason that most  companies  require that workers who climb towers complete RF safety training. This is where expert  explain  to the  readers  the danger areas around such antennas . As per the opinion of  expert  " You are perfectly  safe  and  can remain in any area providing that the bottom of the antenna is at least 2 feet above your head. "
Cellular antennas  have extremely little energy  directed downward  - that would simply be a waste  of energy . Once the energy is just few feet from the antenna , it begins to spread out in two dimensions , so the energy level drops off dramatically  with distance . The energy  level 100 feet from an antenna is only  1 percent of the  energy  level 10 feet  from the antenna.
I do not agree fully .

Why Children absorb more Microwave ( RF ) Radiation than Adults :

With New Year Greetings - 2015

Important  for our Children's health               

The  thing that Concerns  me most about EMFs is what  we are doing to our children .
 I have grand kids , they are growing  up fast.
 I still worry  what they are being exposed  to and when  I see small children  using and playing cell phones and  I-Pad . I do find it distressing. It's so important that people be made aware of the dangers , and it's important  that they  know what to do about them. An  excellent  research paper recently published by Lloyd Mergan  entitled " why children  absorb  more microwave radiation than adults ".  The consequences  - It's a detailed study  but here's a summary  of  the studies  findings / r recommendation -
1. Children absorb  greater amount  of microwave radiation ( MWR ) than adults,
2. MWR is a class 2B ( possible ) carcinogen as is carbon black , carbon tetrachloride , chloroform, DDT, lead  , nickel , diesel fuel  and gasoline. It seems  clear  that we would  not expose children  to these other agents , so why  would we expose  children  to microwave radiation.
3. Fetuses  are even  more vulnerable than children. Therefore pregnant woman should avoid exposing  their  fetus  to microwave  radiation.
4. Adolescent girls  and woman  should not place  cell phones  in their bras  or in hijabs.
5. Cell phone manual warning  make clear an over exposure problem exists.
6. Wireless devices  are radio transmitters , not toys , selling toys  that  use them should be banned.
7. Govt. warning have been used  but most of the public are unaware  of such warnings.
8. Exposure limits are inadequate and should be revised such that they are adequate.

Lets take resolution in 2015 - Microwave Radiation and Electro Magnetic Radiation Free Environment  -
