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 .
