Cell Phone Towers and What You
Really Should Know About Them
by Catherine J. Frompovich
Cell phone microwave towers are popping up everywhere like
mushrooms after a spring rain.
There are numerous types of towers, including those which
are called “mast” towers. There’s even a mini cell tower, the “thimble”, which
can be planted on top of a utility pole!
This website has numerous photos of various configurations
and types of cell towers.
However, it does not contain the “thimble,” which can look
like this. However, some can be a third that size.
According to the article, “Burbank Action: Decreased Real
Estate Value,”
“People don’t want
to live next to one not just because of health concerns, but also due to
aesthetics and public safety reasons, i.e., cell towers become eyesores,
obstructing or tarnishing cherished views, and also can attract crime, are
potential noise nuisances, and fire and fall hazards.”
A number of
organizations and studies have documented the detrimental effects of cell
towers on property values.
The Appraisal
Institute, the largest global professional membership organization for
appraisers with 91 chapters throughout the world, spotlighted the issue of cell
towers and the fair market value of a home and educated its members that a cell
tower should, in fact, cause a decrease in home value.
Did you know that? A cell phone company can decrease the
value of your property just by locating a cell tower next, or near, to your
property!
Here is a twenty-two page report titled “The Impact of
Cellular Phone Base Station Towers On Property Values,” which you may want to
study to understand another unseen impact of microwave technology on your
wellbeing, financial that is! That’s in addition to your health and wellness.
Interestingly, the New Zealand court’s decision conceded “…
a reduction in property values is not an environmental effect in itself; it is
merely evidence, in monetary terms, of the other adverse effects noted.”
Just one of many “adverse effects of microwave technology,” I offer.
In Penitas, Texas, a pole with what looks like a “thimble”
cell tower on top went up overnight and citizens are concerned. No one seems to
know who erected it and why!
A French study published in 2003 and in PubMed indicates
that people living
within 300 meters [900 feet] of cell phone antennas reported various health
complaints including, “fatigue, sleep disturbances, headaches, difficulty
concentrating, depression, memory loss, visual disruptions, irritability, hearing
disruptions, skin problems, cardiovascular disorder and dizziness”.
According to independent EMF researcher Lloyd Burrell at
Electric Sense,
Cell phone tower
radiation exposures are linked to many different symptoms, these include:
Insomnia
Low sperm count
Immune system
deficiencies
Depression
Headaches
Concentration
difficulties
Joint problems
Skin complaints
Cardiovascular
diseases
Auditory system
Disturbances
Visual problems
Gastrointestinal
problems
Dizziness
Nosebleeds
Another study carried out in Belo Horizonte, Brazil
found that over 80
percent of people who succumbed to certain types of cancer resided a third of a
mile away from one of the hundreds of cell phone antennae that populate the
city. The study established a link between over 7000 cancer deaths and cell phone
tower radiation exposures.
A study conducted on the people of Germany, who lived near
the Naila cell tower,
found that after
6-10 years of exposure there was a 3 fold increase in the cancer risk for
residents who lived less than 400 meters [1200 feet] from the tower. For people
who lived more than 400 meters away from the tower, there was no marked
increase in cancer risk.
We are living in a sea of radiation pollution or
“electrosmog,” which we have no one to blame but ourselves for buying into all
the microwave technologies being forced upon what’s becoming known as the
digital, “smart” world and, ultimately, the Internet of Things (IoT).
As someone who is heavily into researching this stuff, I beg
readers to become more inclined to check out microwave radiation; do your own
research. Please don’t take my word for granted. Look into what’s being
published around the globe by independent, non-microwave-industry-sponsored
researchers to understand what’s happening to your body and your mind from the
constant bombardment of unseen non-thermal radiation waves.
