Trivia
Tips to minimise harms from Cell Phone use
As developments in cell phone technology leap forward, the studies of potential
health impacts associated with cell phone use present confusing and inconclusive
results. And yet the entrenchment of cell phone use in our daily lives makes it more
difficult to function without these wireless devices.
TECH TIPS
• Keep cell phones turned off unless absolutely necessary. When they are on, don't carry them in your
pocket or against your body.
• Keep the back of the phone, where the antenna is, facing away from your body.
• Use a headset or wireless headphone with low power. This removes the phone from right beside your
brain.
• Use your phone only when/where the signal is good. In marginal areas, it steps up its power output, so you
are exposed to more radiation.
• Pregnant women should keep cell and wireless phones away from their abdomen, and everyone should
keep cell and wireless phones away from babies, children and youth.
• Text rather than talk. It uses less power and exposes you less. If you need to talk, use your phone on
speaker, and keep it further from your head. If you place it on your lap, use a barrier (like a book) between
your phone and your body.
• Whenever possible, use a land-line for phone communications. Land lines work without emitting
radiation, and will continue to work when the power goes out.
• Children and youth under 20 shouldn't use cell or wireless phones except in emergencies.
• Until the safety of cell phone use is established conclusively, it seems the best approach for users is
to err on the side of caution.
The tips outlined above are practical and easy to implement, while enabling users to continue to enjoy
the benefits of wireless communication.
