Radiofrequency Electromagnetic Fields: Evaluation of Cancer Hazards
International Agency for Research on Cancer | IARC Monographs / WHO | Both
RF electromagnetic fields, possible carcinogen, IARC
IARC classified radiofrequency electromagnetic fields as possibly carcinogenic to humans, mainly from limited evidence involving wireless phone use and glioma/acoustic neuroma, not direct proof about cell towers.

cell towers, RF radiation, cancer evidence
ACS explains that tower RF exposures are generally far below cell phone exposures and that there is very little evidence that living near a tower increases cancer risk.
