1. Electromagnetic Fields (EMF) occur in nature and thus have always been present on earth. Further, with the growth of Mobile Communications population is being exposed to extremely low-level Electromagnetic Fields produced by the base station antennas normally mounted on cellular mobile towers and by handheld mobile telephone sets/radio terminals.
2. It is most important to note that the RF radiations emitted by Mobile Communication Systems lie in the non-ionizing part of the electromagnetic spectrum and thus do not have enough energy to break the bonds that hold molecules in the cells together. Thus, the exposure to EMF Radiations emitted from Mobile Systems cannot produce ionization or cause any genetic damage.
3. Also, the RF emissions from mobile phones and base stations are some 50,000 times lower than the levels at which the first health effects begin to be established. The output power of mobile phones is less than 1 Watt (typically is in the range of 0.2 to 0.6 watts), which is far lower than the emission levels that emanate from the microwave or even the radio.
4.Till date there is no conclusive evidence of any health ailment caused due to electromagnetic radiations emitted from mobile base stations.
5.Epidemiological evidence to date is inadequate for a comprehensive evaluation of risk, and does not support a hypothesis of an association between exposure to radio frequency fields and risk of cancer,reproductive problems, or congenital anomalies.
Prersently NO SCIENTIFIC EVIDENCE proves that usage of mobile phones leads onto adverse health effects in the user.
The list of reference is quite long, but they just prove the point. All material is available is you google these refernces with relevant key words. References
