Scientific research has documented harmful impacts from cell tower radiation exposure to animals and their habitat. Despite the clear and mounting scientific evidence, there are zero regulations in place to safeguard our ecosystems. Our current regulatory frameworks are humancentric, prioritizing people above wildlife and the natural world.
The delicate balance of our Earth's biodiversity is at stake, threatened by the proliferation of cell towers and wireless technologies.
Studies on pollinators have found a broad range of impacts from exposure to wireless and EMF. Scientists have found reduced colony strength, reduced egg-laying rates, disruptions in flight patterns, foraging behaviors, feeding habits, short-term memory, biochemical changes, mortality rates and homing ability (the ability to come home).
A 2023 systematic review of studies on the biological effects to insects of non-ionizing EMFs, including cell tower radiation found the “vast majority of studies found effects, generally harmful ones” including impacts to reproduction and immune health occurring at legally allowed levels. These scientific findings underline the new understanding of EMFs as a threat to pollinators.
