Cell Phone Radiation

Although there’s no conclusive evidence that cell phones increase people’s risk of brain cancer, there’s no conclusive evidence that they don’t either. And brain tumors are not exactly something we should be risking. In my personal experience, when I’ve been on the phone a lot I start to get headaches and aches.
Additionally, the monetary backing behind the studies probably comes from the cell phone companies, and they can definitely skew the data to show the results they want.
Ways to avoid radiation as much as possible are to use the speakerphone or a headset whenever possible. This will lower the amount of SAR produced by the phone. SAR refers to the number between 0-1.6 and it stands for the amount of radiation that a particular cell phone emits.
A few phones with a lower SAR are the Samsung SYnc (.35 watts), the LG VX3400 (.5 watts), the Sony Ericsson k800i (.58 watts), and the Motorola RAZR V3t (.62 watts). It’s something we should look into, if we think about it. People have only been using cell phones at such a high volume for the last 6 years or so, so there really is no way to judge the long-term effects that these vehicles of communication have. Just something to think about, so we can continue to communicate safely as well as effectively in this technological age.
