Is radiation from cellphones indeed killing the birds and bees and impacting our health as shown in Rajnikanth and Akshay starrer 2.0?

Question

Anonymous · Answer

Panjab University has found that EMR can damage bird eggs and embryos.

Cell phones and towers emit a very low frequency of 900 or 1,800 MHz, called microwaves. Studies have found that they can cause thin skulls of chicks and thin egg shells.

So yes mobile phone radiation is actually harming birds.

Cell phone towers emits waves of EMF(electro magnetic field).

These waves starts at frequency of 1900

MHz which impact 1 kilometre radius.

Recent studies reveals that EMF waves of cell towers impact health problems to human such as headache.sleepness,memory loss.low sperm count,cardiovascular stress.birth defects and cancer.

Effects to birds :there are different opinion are there.

But effects are not proved scientifically.

First of all movies never tell the truth, but for your question here is solution..

As per my friend's latest study on impacts of communication towers on wildlife including birds and bees submitted to Ministry of Environment and Forest warns of harmful radiation and recommends special laws to protect urban flora & fauna from threats radiation emerging from mobile towers.The transmission towers are based on the electromagnetic waves, which over prolonged usage have adverse impacts on humans as well as on other fauna. The adverse effects of electromagnetic radiation from mobile phones and communication towers on health of human beings are well documented today. However, exact correlation between radiation of communication towers and wildlife, are not yet very well established. The Ministry of Environment and Forests usually receives several questions regarding this issue. In view of one such Lok Sabha Starred question regarding ‘Ill effects of Mobile Towers on Birds’ received on 11th August, 2010, an ‘Expert committee to Study the possible Impacts of Communication Towers on Wildlife including Birds and Bees’ was constituted on 30th August, 2010 by Ministry of Environment and Forest, Government of India

Hello

Greetings!!

If you have watched the movie, you will know that they are talking about the bandwidth, frequency and Rays that comes out of Mobile signal Towers and not smartphone.

Indirectly Smartphone are also a harm to the society.

Hope this answers….

Upvoting will motivate me to share more……..

Nature balances itself. Extinction of birds means extinction of earth. Automatically apocalypse will occur, vanish the human race and everything will be balanced.

So it's just a matter of time. (100x)

We don't know, there has been no proof so far directly indicating that cell phone towers cause harm to birds. Correlation doesn't equal causation. The solution presented in the movie is not practical , reducing data limits,usage,etc will not deter people from buying more expensive packs and using the same amount of data and talktime.

High number of Telecom companies is not a bad thing infact it's the reason why we have high speed internet at cheap rates.

I went to Saudi Arabia and was surprised by the high internet prices not just based on inr to Sar conversion but the relative price and speed and the network.They have only 3 telecom companies of which 1 is fully owned by government and other is partly owned by government and the other is private.

Compare the US ,we have relatively cheaper internet even if you account for inr to usd conversion.

If we find proof then we need to find alternate frequency or some alternate technology that can be made economical.We have opened the Pandora box we can't deal it back.

I have confidence we can find something to also help with our power consumption, before we had high amounts of lead in petrol when we discovered it's harm we found alternative.

Massive change takes time to implement.

Well, after the release of the film, there were reports of a lot of people, In this some scientists believe that this is true, while some even refuse it.

Let me explain you in the context.

M. Rajesh, professor of biology at the American College of Madurai in Tamilnadu, said that mobile towers radiation is not so much , but its not meant that radiation does not have any effect! But these effects are not life-threatening.

Dr. Reena Dev, a doctor and wildlife expert of birds says that many things that have been shown in the film are true.

According to Rina, due to radiation, there is a difference between the fertility of the birds, the size of the eggs, the thickness of egg shells.

According to Pankaj Gupta, an ornithologist,

They say that such things have come, but so far there is no such study in foreign countries that 100% of this affirmation that the radiation of the mobile tower causes the birds to be damaged.

Its not that there has been no research on the radiation emanating from the mobile tower in India.

Dr. RK Singh, Professor of Biology of Dr. C.V. Raman University has studied in many areas including Bijapur of Karnataka.

He spent a few hours in the morning and evening near different towers in Bijapur. He did this for three months. There they saw what many birds are in.

At the same time, he surveyed the people around and asked, what were the birds used to be in these areas for the last five or three years which are not seen today.

After the completion of the research, they came to know that due to the towers the birds migrated from those areas to the village and the forest.

Dr. RK Singh's study claimed that if the non-irrational radiation continues to happen, then it is damaged. They said that the things shown in the movie 2.0 are correct.

So now it is difficult to say completely that it is truth that is shown in movie or it does not really happen in such a way.

In the end, I would like to say that, right now we need to know more about this and some knowledge and research.

thank you

Well, it is also said in the movie, that there is no hard evidence to support that. In reply of that, Pakshirajan challenges the CEO to stay under the mobile tower for 24 hours.

The MOEF( Ministry of Environment and Forests) conducted different studies on this subject. The committee says the EMR is largely responsible for the bird's declining numbers. It also said that EMR also affects the honeybee population.

it may not have direct impact but it certainly has indirect impact on birds.

The navigation skill of birds are affected by the radiation as a result some birds become alone and out of their colony. It also affects the insect population which invariably causes harm to its prey.

But as it is said in the movie, people want hard evidence.

It is also said that humans get affected by radiation, it can cause sleeplessness, depression, skin disease or even cancer so what makes you think birds donot get affected?

Still there is no evidence.

No.

Sweta Sinha · Answer

Yes, mobile radiations are harmful for humans also. So, you can figure it out how harmful this can be for birds.

They fly in open sky, but now everywhere is radiations.

We are loosing wildlife daily in the name of development.

I don’t know what today’s public and gov think of development but this is not development. Development is something where you are upgrading without harming.

Yes it is , offcourse they exaggerate it a bit for the purpose of movie but yes the frequency from towers adversely affect birds.
