In 1998 an international committee called the International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) set radiation and EMF safety limits.

“…Induction of cancer from long term EMF exposure was not considered to be established, and so these guidelines are based on short-term, immediate health effects,” reads their report.This means the ICNIRP only bothered to look at the short term heating or thermal effects of radiation. They have completely overlooked the fact radiation is cumulative in the human body and ingnored the long-term consequences associated with cumulative radiation exposure.

Despite this, the Independent Expert Group on Mobile Phones (known as the Stewart Report) released their expert report on the safety of moblie phones/masts in 2000 and,
