A series of Swedish studies have revealed a clear link between the wireless radiation from cordless phones and brain cancers and T-cell non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma cancers. Study lead Professor Hardell concluded that the health risks from cordless phones are similar to regular mobile phone usage, since they...
Health Canada is reviewing the safety of energy-saving light bulbs to determine whether the amount of UV light and electromagnetic radiation they emit is safe. The federal government launched its study on compact fluorescent lights in December, following several public health warnings by British medical...
Over 900 million mobile subscribers will soon be direct beneficiaries of stringent new government norms to control harmful radiation from mobile handsets, a tacit admission that the present radiation levels are injurious to health. http://articles.timesofindia.indiatimes.com/2011-12-23/telecom/30550334_1_mobile-handsets-icnirp-sar-level...
