As a homeowner in a neighborhood with a cell tower that went up recently nearby, I am interested in seeing the long-term research done on nn-EMF; and its impacts on human health. I have been told there are no known risks based on studies, but the studies seem to fall short - they have not studied long-term health of nearby residents. People with cell towers near their homes have reported headaches, fatigue, ringing in the ears, etc. I am not presuming cell towers to be the cause, but it’s worth taking seriously. Given radiation’s impact on human health (i.e. cancer), I’d like to be sure cell towers certainly do not contribute to such a diagnosis. In conclusion, the public needs to be reassured that cell towers do not negatively impact the overall wellbeing of those who live near them.
