CHENNAI: The ministry for environment and forests has
commissioned a vital three-month study to understand the
impact of mobile phone tower radiation on birds and insects
in the wake of disappearing bird species and bees. "I have
heard these radiations have deleterious impact on birds. In
Odisha, I heard that crows and other birds have fallen dead
from the sky.
There has been no understanding on this," said Jayanthi
Natarajan, minister for environment and forests on the
sidelines of the sixth edition of Beacon 2012, organised by
the Loyola Institute of Business Administration on the
importance of 'eco-innovation' in business models. "And this
is what prompted us to do the study," she added. She also
said that she plans to write to the telecom minister. "They
should set up a separate task force to monitor the radiation
impacts these towers have," she said.
The minister also said she is strongly against the idea of
Dow Chemicals being one of the sponsors of the Olympics. "As
an Indian, I feel that someone who has caused such
tremendous damage to the environment cannot be allowed to
sponsor," she said.
The minister is also mooting the idea of monitoring all
industries 24X7.
"I agree that there have been gaps in our monitoring
systems. The state pollution control boards will monitor all
industries with consent to operate license to check for
increases in pollution levels," she said. The results will
be put on the MoEF's website where the public can see and
scrutinize.
Jayanthi also suggested that industries have some amount of
self-regulation when it comes to damaging the environment.
"We can't keep policing them all of the time. Industries
should understand that green and clean business is good
business," she said. "But most corporate companies have been
very cooperative and responsible," she added. Yet there is a
long way to go, she said.
"I suggest that they not only have a corporate social
responsibility but also a corporate social and environment
responsibility. We need to know what the company has done to
the environment. The companies should disclose this on
internet so that there is transparency," she added.
