The document discusses the hazards of radiation from cell towers, emphasizing exposure to electromagnetic radiation, which has increased significantly compared to previous generations. It outlines potential health risks including brain cancer, infertility, and skin cell changes, as well as environmental effects on animals and ecosystems. The text also raises concerns about the higher power outputs from upcoming 4G towers and their implications for human and ecological health.

7. A CLOSER LOOK AT CELL TOWER
EXPOSURE
•CellTowersThat Hold Antennas And Other
Communication eqiupments.they flood the area
for miles around with powerful high frequency
radio waves(or microwaves) to support the use of
cell phones as well as wi-fi, wimax, wireless lans
,and more.
•CellTowerTypically ContainsTransmitter –
Receivers,control Electronics,gps Receiver For
Timing, Digital Signal ProcessorsAsWell As
VariousTypes Of Electrical Power Sources.These
Microwaves MightTravels For As Few As 2 Miles In
HillyAreas ,And Upto45 MilesWhereThere Are
Fewer Obstructions,and Of Course,they Easily
Penetrate BrickAnd Metals.

8. CELL TOWER RADIATION
• We exposed to 100 millions more
• Electromagnetics radiations than our
• Grandparents were and cell towers are
• Making that number grow exponentially.
• If we can make a call on cellphone then
• We were in the area which is saturated
• With cell site microwave radiation.
• Some of the most powerful cell tower installations
• Are on mountains and hilltops outside of urban areas.
• These EM fields have impacted humans,animals as well
• As the ecological balance.
• EMF from cell phone towers are impossible to escape but you can
protect yourself.

16. WHAT ARE THE ASSOCIATED
HEALTH RISKS?
APART FROM BRAIN CANCER,THAT
EXPOSURE OF RADIATIONTOTHE SKIN
AND BRAIN CAUSE CHANGES IN CELL
STRUCTURE.
“CHANGESWILL INDUCED IN SKIN CELLS
AND METABOLISM OF GLUCOSE INTHE
BRAINWAS AFFECTED”.
IT IS ALSO KNOWNTO CAUSE HEARING
LOSS,INFERTILITY,POLYCYSTIC OVARY
SYNDROME(PCOD)IN WOMEN.

19. REPERCUSSIONS OF IMPENDING
4G TOWERS?
• There are 15 lakh mobile towers in india.
• Most of them are in dense cluster and
• in non-uniform distances.
• Experts have raise concerns over the
• Upcoming 4g towers.
• ”Each tower has close to four or more
• Antennas attached to it.
• Each antenna will transmit atleast 40 watts of power which extremely high.
• At the momont,2g towers emitts close to 20 watts of power.
• More transmission in 4g towers may cause compliance issues.
• Power transmission from antenna is not more than 1-5 watts.
• Higher the power transmission more amplified is the range of frequency of
mobile towers.

20. EFFECT ON
ENVIRONMENT
Q.HAVEYOU EVER SEEN ANY BIRD NEAR CELLTOWER?
MAY BE NOT,BECAUSE BIRDS HAVE MOREVOLUME AND
LESSWEIGHT,SO HEATING EFFECT ISVERY FA ST.
