The rapid expansion of mobile phone use and construction of
base stations have raised fears that the technology of cell
phones could have adverse effects on health, including
causing cancer, headaches and memory loss.
WHO estimates that in 2002 there will be 700 million mobile
phone users. The Scandinavian countries are most advanced,
with a density of 36 to 42%. Therefore, an impact on human
health, even if limited, would be multiplied on a global
scale.
The current mobile phones operate at frequencies between 800
and 1800 MHz. The RF (radio frequency) frequency between 1
MHz and 10 GHz penetrate exposed tissues and cause heating
due to energy absorption. Even when very low intensity, an
RF field generates a small amount heat, but it would be
evacuated by the normal processes of thermoregulation of the
body. Also in the current state of scientific knowledge, it
is unlikely that exposure to RF fields of low intensity,
induces or promotes appearance of cancers, including those
emitted by mobile phones and their base stations. (Source:
WHO)
Currently the health effects of frequencies emitted by
mobile phones are unclear and often contradictory and their
impact on human health are not sufficiently well understood
to justify limiting the exposure to RF fields low intensity.
However the European Union recommends that manufacturers of
devices that produce such effects to be “cautious”.
Of course, mobile phones are a recent technology, and
researchers have not yet sufficient data to demonstrate the
potential long-term effects of electromagnetic fields on
health. Epidemiological studies and experiments on animals
are multiplying, contradictory… and add to uncertainty.
Several independent studies (ie publicly funded and not by
mobile telephone operators) highlight the biological changes
in living organisms under the effect of electromagnetic
waves emitted by mobile phones. The European Reflex pointed
in vitro breakage of DNA strands in living cells and an
increase of chromosomal aberrations under the influence of
electromagnetic fields of frequency bands of mobile phones
(1 800 MHz).
“In addition to a significant penetration of electromagnetic
fields of mobile in the body, other works show an increase
in the permeability of the blood-brain barrier (which
separates the blood from the brain), allowing passage of
toxic substances circulating in blood, with consequent
impairment of nerve cells the use of a mobile for more than
ten years would increase by 30% the risk of neuroma (benign
tumor of the brain) when the phone is sometimes worn to
listen sometimes to another, and 240% when it is held on one
side.
Released in August 2007, the work of fourteen experts who
analyzed more than 1 500 publications on the effects of
electromagnetic fields on all forms of life has since been
referenced by the European Environment Agency and the
European Parliament relied on to make its findings last
September on a resolution concerning the environmental
electromagnetic fields.
