Abstract
The positive aspect of technological innovation makes life easier; it may also involve components that impair the quality of life via certain negative effects. Cell phone towers emit high-frequency radio waves, which are a significant environmental pollutant and a serious problem today. The thermogenic effect is primarily linked to the intensity of electromagnetic fields (EMF), measured by the specific absorption rate (SAR). This review work compiled both field and laboratory studies carried out on various parameters such as growth, behaviour, reproduction and development, cancers in human beings, etc. Information on various studies published on the effects of EM radiations and methods employed during EMR studies is enlisted herein. The studies showing the impact on dosimetry, co-exposure, epidemiology, haematology, endocrinology, molecular structure, wildlife, and ecology were considered. Lack of standardization and inconsistent results hindered the ability to generalize the findings.
