This article is terrible, celltowers don't transmit at 2,000watts try more 60-80watts. Your phone at best is maybe 5 watts.

Also your microwave oven operates on the same frequency as your WiFi router. But why don't you die? Because Non-ionizing radiation and it's 500mw

You can become sick without a prerequisite of instant death. There is plenty of research that shows that non-ionizing radiation can produce biological effects. The non-ionizing radiation spell is always brought out in these discussions, but it's just your basic wireless industry FUD without the F, so stop spreading that misinfo.

Your lack of understanding is poor. You have to exposed to high levels of energy for long periods of time to see the biological effects.

If the wireless industry was truly causing cancer and other negative biological effects then everyone in the industry would be very sick, but they aren't.

So stop applying a very specific case for Non-ionizing radiation making people sick that will never be experienced in the real world.

No it's you that lack understanding. You're simplifying health to something that is black and white (either you're sick/dead, or you're perfectly fine).

That is not how electromagnetism effects biology. I've researched this topic extensively for years, and the effects are subtle, accumulative, and produce chronic issues with long-term exposure.

That's how it works. You're thinking from a completely non-biological electrical engineering perspective. From a biological perspective it much more complex.

For example, RF radiation changes how the membrane of the cell works. There exists what are called calcium ion channels in the cell membrane. Even very low exposure (much lower than your hand-held mobile FCC limit), will already change the operation of these ion channels.

Please, and I mean this very sincerely, investigate what I am saying, and you will find out exactly the same information that I have found. RF radiation is not harmless, and even if you are not feeling it, you are being harmed.

Cell towers are not as problematic as your hand held devices. That's basic physics I have no problems to agree with. However one radiates 24/7, the other you can shut down if you wish. That's also something to consider.

All the research I come across is inconclusive about the effects on people. You have yet to provide hard evidence because there is none. The only study that proved your point was done on rats with levels that humans would never experience.
