Topic Most people in the US and other first world countries use a cellphone in order to keep in touch and communicate with one another. Personally, I use my phone probably way more than I should due to all of the cool extra functions it has. It is extremely hard to avoid cell phones in today’s society. However, these cellular devices have a few negatives. The radiation from cell phones and their towers has been linked to causing cancer, they are a huge source of distraction, and these phones can sometimes overheat and catch on fire. To begin, the radiation caused mainly by cell phone towers is becoming huge concern..exposure to electromagnetic radiation is growing and becoming a serious health threat (“The Hidden Dangers of Cellphone Radiation”). Many girls I see carry their phones in their bras. It is very surprising to me that they still do this despite the risk of their tissues absorbing the radiation. However, The real danger comes from cellphone towers. The tower-based antennas carrying the signals have been linked to development of brain tumors, genetic damage, and other exposure-related conditions (“Advantages and Disadvantages of Cell Phone”). These cell phone towers emit much more radiation than one single phone ever could. The people living next to them are exposed to this fatal radiation for a big portion of their lives. Although cellphone towers are necessary in order to allow cellphones to fulfill their purpose, they should not be built within unsafe
In today 's modern world, there is a great buzz around the latest and greatest in technology. One such massively important gadget, is the cellular telephone. In the last decade or so, cell phones have gotten smaller and smaller, as well as larger in popularity. It is difficult to go anywhere without seeing a person on a cell phone, or using a cell phone in some fashion. Contrary to popular belief, cell phones are not a "god-send" in my opinion, and looking at the facts, the world would be better off without them. As all of the following evidence shows, people would be safer, healthier and perhaps even smarter, without the presence of cell phones.
Over the past decade, we have integrated technology into many parts of out lives. We use our cell phones for everything from finding directions, to taking pictures of moments you do not want to forget. Everywhere you go, you cell phone goes with you, if you forget it at home, somehow we feel naked without it. Cell phones have become so powerful and useful for so many things other than just making phone calls; I do not even know why we still call them phones. With that, we have the right to feel secure and free from unwarranted searches though our cell phones and electronic devices.
But these problems only happen if people use them 24/7. These things can be lethal on some ways. Like RF radiation, bad eye sight and deafness, and even cancer and brain tumors are all things that can happen. This piece tells us a lot about cellphones and helps determine the bad things in cell phones. Know that this world can change a ton with people having awareness of cellphones. We can see that cell phones are like a drug. People begin to use it, and just can't stop, even if people know it hurts
-Some people have claimed that phones could be the cause of cancer and other sicknesses, especially for kids.
In this generation, nearly everywhere you go there is someone using their cell phone. Whether you are at the groceries, school, or even church, at least one person is using some kind of electronic gadget. The use of cell phones and other devices is becoming more and more popular, along with the topic of the effects that are caused by using cell phones. Many people say that the use of cell phones can have many harmful effects on your health, including an increased risk of cancer. There have been several people who have conducted research, and there are many different opinions and findings, about whether or not using cell phones can cause cancer. The overall
Cell phones are a part of everyday life. Cell phones became available widely in the United States in the 1990s. Having so many people use cell phones so often, it makes people wonder what damage they could be doing. Since cell phones give off radiofrequency waves, also known as RF, it
The type of radiation cell phones give off is called radio frequency (RF) radiation. This radiation can go through your body and cause major damage to your tissues and cells. In fact, the World Health Organization (WHO) even classified this type of radiation as a possible 2B carcinogen (Burrell). There are also thousands of studies saying cell phones cause cancer, one study is the Interphone Study, this study concluded that “regular use of a cell phone by adults can significantly increase the risk of gilomas by 40% with 1640 hours or more of use” (Burrell). This equals out to about 30 minutes per day for ten years. Another study done by the Hardell Research Group concluded that using cell phones gives you an increased risk of developing gilomas or acoustic neuromas (Burrell). Another study done in the UK in 2013 studied 790,000 women and found that women using cell phones at least 10 hours a day are 2 1/2 times more likely to acquire an acoustic neuroma (Burrell). In the 1990s, at the University of Washington, Professor Lai linked cell phone radiation exposure directly to single-stranded DNA breaks. “This is important because, micronuclei proliferation indicates a type of DNA damage strongly associated with cancer” (Burrell). Not only can cell phones give you two different types of deadly brain tumors, but it can also give you eye cancer, lymph node cancer, breast cancer, thyroid cancer, stem cell cancer, leukemia, paratoid malignant tumors, cancer of the pituitary gland, melanomas, and it can damage your DNA, which in turn can lead to cancer (Burrell). To conclude, major damage can be done to your brain and whole body if too much time is spent
Every single day in America two hundred billion text messages are received. In 2015, Americans will spend $1.8 billion dollars on mobile devices. There is no doubt that Americans are dependent of their cellular devices, but this could change in the future. If researchers can prove that the radiation cell phones put off is damaging to the human brain Americans may have to get rid of their smartphones. As of right now there is no concrete evidence supporting either side in this dilemma. After years of studies on cell phones and cancer the results have been conflicting. Currently there is no answer to how high your risk is to get cancer, if at all, due to cell phone use. The biggest issue between cell phones and
In today's society there have been numerous advancements to help us in our everyday lives. One of this advancement is cell-phones, which is one of the greatest development in technology. We have become dependent on mobiles phones and it seem like a high percentage of the population including elderly people, young adult and even kids under 18 have one of this devices. There are numerous advantages and disadvantages related to cell phones. In one hand there is the importance of being communicated for emergencies, business, social and personal purposes. On the other hand, the usage of cell phone had become addictive to people of all around the world and the abuse of prolongated hours on the cell phones can cause health hazard. Cell phones
I am going to talk about the arguments about how cell phone radiation can affect our lives and whether these arguments are accurate or not. Cell phone radiation is a type of electromagnetic radiation that has the ability to cause health issues. The radiation from this device can cause serious brain tumours, according to one study by Anna Lahkola of the Radiation and Nuclear Safety Authority in Finland, which found that people who use their cell phone for more than 2000 hours have a higher chance of getting a brain tumour. The
Thanks to the "father of the cell phone" Martin Cooper, over 90% of people, just in the United States, possess his creation in their pockets ("Mobile Technology Fact Sheet"). Little did he know that these complex devices could grow to their current demand and start to pose a danger to society. Cell phones are a detrimental technology that is disrupting our way of life.
In this project, I am going to investigate the question ‘are cell phones dangerous’. I will show how a cell-phone works and how radiation caused by cell-phones may affect you, I will show you different viewpoints from different sources and go through identifying key points and evaluate their arguments I will then give you my own opinion based on the facts and research I have conducted.
Following the time when the mid 1980s, phones have been rapidly moving their route into our commonplace lives, particularly with the presentation of cam telephones in the early part of the new thousand years. As cells develop they have more of an effect on our commonplace lives and I need to exactly how much they are affecting. Similarly as with new engineering in whatever other structure, phones have changed enormously over their generally short life compasses. As these progressions happen, so does the populaces like and here and there loathe for these new advanced cells. One of the real issues happening with cell telephones in present day times is that individuals use them at wrong times, for example, when they are looking at of a market. Despite the fact that there are a couple negative perspectives about phones, my exploration and my paper are going to mostly the profits of Pdas in the United States of America. My exploration concentrates on a few key regions in wireless correspondence, for example, the advancement of Pdas, content informing, Pdas and other PDA applications and in addition my own particular exploration including a overview that I dispersed to some of my colleagues.
Thesis: Cellular phones are the world’s most popular mobile device used by Americans today, but cell phones are said to be the leading cause of traffic accidents, they are used for cyber bullying, give off electromagnetic radiation that is harmful to our bodies and more; therefore we ask ourselves are cell phones really dangerous?
The financial expenses, which have accumilated from mobile phones, have been quite dangerous to particular people. Like pouring water out of a leaking bottle, money has been wasted out of many people’s banks and financial accounts because of mobiles. Not only can mobile phones be financially challenging but they can also be physically dangerous. Recent studies have shown that the high level of radiation coming through the antenna while speaking on the mobile, can critically affect your body by alpha radiation particles mutating a cell, which goes on to divide and divide, causing a malignant tumor- cancer. So, when all's said and done, mobile phones do have its negative side, and in my opinion it’s negative side is in complete dominance over its positive attributes. These types of phones can dramatically change people’s life styles or even terminate them!
