Are There Health Risks from Cell Towers?

Are There Health Risks from Cell Towers? As communities debate the placement of new cell towers, many people ask a simple question: Are cell towers safe? Is the RF radiation they emit safe? According to the International Commission on the Biological Effects of Electromagnetic Fields (ICBE-EMF), experts on the science, human health, and environmental impacts of non-ionizing electromagnetic (EMF) radiation,… 

Scientists Call on Congress and FCC to Halt Cell Tower Fast-Track Proposals in Light of New Scientific Analysis on Wireless Radiation Health Risks

ICBE-EMF Letter to Congress and the FCC Calling to Halt Cell Tower Fast Track Proposal in Light of New Scientific Analysis on Cell Tower and Wireless Radiation Health Risks Letter to House and Senate leadership and the Federal Communications Commission warns that newly published peer-reviewed analysis indicates current federal wireless radiation limits may be set hundreds of times too high…

New Publication: Scientists Find WHO Cell Phone Radiation Cancer Study “Scientifically Flawed”

New Publication: WHO Cell Phone Radiation Cancer Study is “Seriously Flawed” Scientists conclude the review does not assure wireless safety, and should not be used to set public health policy    Media Contact:Joel Moskowitz PhDEmail: jmm@berkeley.edu A Letter to the Editor published in the journal Environment International by the International Commission on the Biological Effects of Electromagnetic Fields (ICBE-EMF) concludes… 

FCC and ICNIRP Limits

FCC and ICNIRP Human Exposure Limits   Inadequate to Protect Health or Environment The wireless radiation exposure limits of the U.S.  Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and the International Commission on Non Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) are inadequate to protect health. They ignore hundreds of scientific studies documenting adverse health effects at wireless exposures below the threshold dose claimed by these agencies,…
