Personal Experience of Cell Tower Radiations

Feeling  of Radiations  from my Neighboring Antennas  of Cell Towers installed illegally on Roof Top By M/S Viom  Networks Pvt. Ltd & Indus Towers Ltd. very close to my  bedrooms just opposite  to my building of residence  going on emitting  radiations .


 Initially I was not knowing the level  of radiations  inside my bedrooms moving around 24 hrs. which I could know only after measuring  by an Instrument Cell phone Tower  radiation  DETECTOR , before measuring  levels of radiations I was using my bedroom since  more than  1 year. During this period  I  & my family developed  different symptoms like Headache, sleep disorder, loss of memory,Joints pain ,developed cataract in both eyes due to not knowing the situations prevailed in my bedroom. After measuring  the radiations by instrument we have relocated  our bed room since last nearly one and half month. Now we are feeling little different physically &  now we are not using our bed room except changing our garments , we try to spend very less time in our bed room. 
With this problem I met with Hon'ble Environment  minister of Govt. of west Bengal with  representation
letter  to save us from high level of radiation in my building / bed room &  by extending  Govt. financial help  to provide shielding in my windows  which was enclosed with quotations . The Chairman Mr. Dutta of WBPCB expressed that radiation matter does not fall under WBPCB which falls under Central Deptt.of Telecommunication,  who regulates the radiation  aspect  of cell towers , but I replied to him that the Health of public is the concern of State. So some one's family effected with radiation health hazards , State  Govt. will be only playing blame games ? If there will be soon Cancer boom in the state due to radiation , can state Govt.  remain quite ?
I am now scared  what to do in this situation , only  2 cell operators I find them only responsible  whom If  asked to audit the radiation their reply will be  "within the limit". The Central Govt.  not introducing the recommendations of radiations submitted by a expert committee in Jan. 2010 . The Govt. is awaiting for  Cancer Boom in the Country from huge radiation from 5lacs of cell tower in the country.
Now I am informing this situation  to the readers who ever reads this blog they can give their suggestions  if they have any to save us.

Cell Phone Tower protection tips

What to do if a Cell Phone Tower is erected next to your home !!
Contd. from earlier post -
Tips no.4 --  Shielding your bed Room
If the problem is restricted  just to your bed room, then the easiest, the most effective  but  not necessarily the cheapest solution would be to use a EMF Faraday Canopy over your  bed. This is a basically an ultra fine metal wire mesh which works like a mosquito net but instead of keeping out the mosquitosit keeps out RF radiation. This kind of shielding can be very effective  up to 99%.
Tips no. 5 --   Shielding your Windows
Usually the place to start  shielding your room is the windows , reading from your EMF meter  will confirm this . Your windows  are the weak spot & usually provide the least protection from EMFs. The good news is this is really easy to correct using a special window film. You can buy scotch tint in a roll , cut it to size , peel off the backing , moisten it & stick it to your window.
Tips no. 6  --   Shielding Paint
 If you want to stop the cell tower radiation penetrating your bed room through an out side wall then the best solution is to use a shielding paint something like yshield . Yshield is a water based paint, free of toxic solvents, which I have found easy to apply. It can be used on walls , ceiling, doors. it adheres well to cement, plaster , polystyrene & most building materials. It can be used inside as well as out .
Tips no.7 --   Cheaper EMF Shielding
For Internal walls , which unlike external walls don't need to breathe, then an even cheaper solution is to use insulating aluminium foil , as in the building industry, you can stick this to the walls using wall paper paste & thus just paper over the top.

Cell Phone Tower protection Tips

What to do if a cell phone tower is erected next to your home ?
There is one big difference between cell phones & Cell towers . A cell phone you can choose  not to have one at all & if you do have one you can choose to switch it off whenever you want.
But if a cell phone tower pop up next to your home, this is a different story. remember electromagnetic fields ( EMFS ) can not be seen & can not be heard but they go  through pretty much everything & nearly anything.
First thing first , before you get overly concerned about the dangers of your nearest cell phone towers, you first need to put your own house in order. there is no point going to great lengths & great expense with all sorts of elaborate shielding if inside your home  you have not already minimized/eradicated all the radiation sources. t
Here are 7 Tips on how to protect your home from Cell Tower Radiation :-
1. Do you need to take action ?
The starting point is to establish whether you need to take action. Firstly  need to ascertain just how close the nearest cell phone tower is , if the nearest cell phone tower is  more than a half a mile away then you should be able to sleep easy. There are no hard  & fast rules on this, one study which comes to mind found that there were adverse health effects within 400 m. But this depends on the  radiation  output of the cell phone towers in question. as a rule of thumb if the cell phone tower is within 500m & you can see the antennas from your home then you need to investigate further.
2. Get some reliable EMF readings !
Investigating  further means obtaining reliable readings from an EMF Meter.If however you are perhaps within 400m or closer & you are already experienced symptoms then you would be best advised to purchase  an EMF Meter at the outset to measure the RF radiation. This will some you money in the long run.
3. Shielding your Home !
Once you have got  some readings then you have something to go on what you need to Shield. Shielding  your whole house is just not going to be feasible  & will in any case be fairly  point less. Instead you need to focus your  attention on the room where you spend most of your time & your bed room, If you spend most of your time in your kitchen then you would be  looking to shield your kitchen & shield your bed room, unless you line in such a big house that the bed room  has negligible readings.  I would not want to " line " or spend any considerable amount of time in an environment where RF levels are above 0.02 V/m.

Urgency for protection from Electro magnetic radiation

Our exposure to electro magnetic radiation (EMR) is increasing at an alarming rate. for example , in 2001, there were approximately 1 billion subscribers of cell phones in the world and in 2011, there are more than 5 billion subscribers.
Also, minutes per day of use of cell phones has increased globally due to lower price. Which implies increased radiation.To meet this increased communication demand , number of cell towers  have increased substantially to several millions. People living close to these  towers  absorb radiation 24x7. In addition number of Wi-Fi systems, wireless transmitters, etc. have increased rapidly in the last decade, thereby adding to radiation pollution.
Many countries in the world have adopted guide lines of safe radiation given by ICNIRP ( International Commission on  Non -ionizing Radiation Protection ) 1998.
Most Cell towers are mounted near residential and office buildings to provide good mobile phone coverage to the users. Together these towers transmit several tens to  hundreds of  watts of power. This is comparable to a microwave woven with 500 watts of output power. In which food gets  cooked in a few minutes. Radiation is transmitted through a directional antenna that yields  maximum radiation in the direction of the main beam. power density varies  according to the distance  from the tower. People living at a distance  of tens of meters to a few hundreds  of meters from these towers  have experienced several  health problems.
Such as , sleep disorder, headache, lack of  concentration, memory loss, joint pain, skin rashes, miss carriage and cancer. The radiation from cell towers also affects birds, animals  tress  and  environment.  One rarely sees birds near cell towers. As  their volume is  large  and weight is less  they feel heating effect faster  than humans . It has also been  observed  that the yield of fruit bearing tress , which are near  cell  towers  and in line  of the main beam, is going down  significantly.
Cell phone industry is becoming another  cigarette industry , which kept  claiming  that  smoking is not  harmful and now  there are millions  off people  around the world  who have suffered from smoking. In fact , cell phone/tower radiation is  worse than smoking, as one  can not see it  or smell it, and its effect on health is noted  after a long period   of exposure .

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.

How do cellular Phone towers work ?

Microwave Radiation effects from Cell Towers in our densely populated neighborhood are classifieds  as - Thermal & Non Thermal .
Non thermal effects are several times  more harmfull than thermal effects.
For the ICNIRP guidelines , only thermal effects are regarded as established & used to set the limits. Non- Thermal biological effects have not been shown to be a health hazards.
On may 31, 2011, WHO reported ,"The Electro  magnetic fields produced by mobile phones are classified by the International Agency for Research  on
Cancer as possibly Carcinogenic ".
