Addressing Cell Towers at Schools as Primary Prevention: The Need for Science-Based Policy to Mitigate Health and Safety Risks
This American Public Health Association presentation examines scientific evidence on cell tower radiation health effects in children and schools. Addressing wireless radiation exposure, outdated FCC limits, and environmental health inequities, it urges science-based policies to reduce radiofrequency (RFR) exposure, mitigate cell tower health risks, and protect children’s safety in school environments nationwide.

Health Effects of Cell Towers: Science and Expert Recommendations
Science is mounting on the health risk of cell towers near homes and schools. As wireless network infrastructure expands, cell towers are increasingly sited near homes, schools, and playgrounds—often over strong community objection. Cell towers drop property values, create fire risks, and emit radiofrequency (RF) radiation. Children absorb higher rates of cell tower radiation and…

Regulatory Filings & Correspondence
by Environmental Health SciencesEnvironmental Health Sciences, through its Wireless and EMF program, submits science-based comments in numerous FCC proceedings to advance U.S. federal regulatory accountability, promote the development of science-based exposure limits for wireless radiofrequency (RF) radiation, and ensure transparency and oversight independent of corporate influence. EHS also files into international proceedings to support international efforts. FCC’s current wireless…
