Environmental Working Group (EWG) has released a new article warning us once again about cell phone radiation. The gist of the article is that cancer rates are up in those who have been using mobile phones for ten years or more, but current research can't actually pin the blame on cell phones themselves. Meanwhile, they've released a list of the "safest" phones in terms of radiation.

We at Environmental Working Group are still using our cell phones, but we also believe that until scientists know much more about cell phone radiation, it’s smart for consumers to buy phones with the lowest emissions.

The ten phones with the lowest emissions are:

Samsung Impression
Motorola RAZR V8
Samsung SGH-t229
Samsung Rugby
Samsung Propel Pro
Samsung Gravity
T-Mobile Sidekick
LG Xenon
Motorola Karma QA1

The phones with the highest emissions were:

Motorola MOTO VU204
Kyocera Jax S1300
T-Mobile myTouch

These phones are not proven dangerous, but I bet you're thinking twice about carrying them in your front pocket. (Sorry)

Full list of phones based on radiation; this page loads very slowly.

The article below says that "some" groups say that your mobile is bad for you, while "others" say that your phone will not turn you into a cancer-ridden mutant; however, which groups said what are not specified. The bottom line, though, is:

The American Cancer Society, World Health Organization and the Food and Drug Administration have all said that wireless devices do not pose a public health risk.

Go to mercola.com and you'll see his comments about Iphone. It's unfortunate, as he says, because iphone has so much to offer. I'm switching back to the razor based on the results.

Drugs is bad.Our goverment passed a law that drugs of any nature will kill you.there are drug dealers on the corners,and in the parks selling drugs that kill people.And if they are caught will go to jail for a long time.But we as a people have been blinded to the fact our own Government are the biggest Drug Dealers right here in America.Alcohol is a mind alteration drug,and kill people daily.Cigarettes is a drug,and kill people every day,and as you read this letter right now.Some one is dieing from a drug the government sold us.But I have never heard about any of these people going to jail for murder.the liquor store is still selling there drugs,and cigarettes are still killing people from Cancer.Our government can get away with murder.But we as a people can not.At lease our government should have found a cure for Cancer by now.To many years have passed,and they say there is no cure.
