Cell phone radiation safety standards must be strengthened



(NaturalNews) Twelve leading public health and consumer groups are calling on the U.S. government to review the current outdated and inadequate wireless safety standards to better protect both young people and adults from electromagnetic field exposures (EMF) from devices like cell phones, cordless phones, WiFi and other wireless technologies.

Public health organizations are demanding that the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) update its radiation standards to reflect current patterns of use and provide consumers with information about potential radiation exposure from cell phones and networks and that information at the point of sale of cell phones and similar devices be provided.

This initiative was signed by the Environmental Working Group (EWG) and 11 other public health organizations including: Breast Cancer Action, Breast Cancer Fund, Center for Health, Environment & Justice, Center for Environmental Health, Empire State Consumers Project, Healthy Child Healthy World, Product Policy Institute, Science and Environmental Health Network, and Teens Turning Green. The EWG also submitted to the FCC a 22 page document detailing extensive technical comments and outlining its concerns.
