In today’s fast-moving and globalised world it is almost impossible to imagine our day-to-day life without mobile-phones & today’s world is a world of technology and inventions.
Mobile phones play an important role in the development of human civilization, but their excessive use brings severe problems.
According to the U.N. Telecom agency, there were almost 6 billion cell phone users in the world, with almost 86 gadgets for every 100 people.
It is reported, that people who talk on the phone for several hours a
day are 50% more likely to develop brain cancer. The reason for this is the radio waves produced by
mobile phones. It is calculated, that every minute the human brain receives about 220 electro magnetic
impulses. Recent studies report two types of brain cancer may occur – glioma and acoustic
neuroma.
Apart from cancer risk, mobile phones influence our nervous system. They may cause headaches, decreased attention, shortness of temper, sleep disorders and depression, mostly among teenagers. Radio waves are not the only reason for such symptoms.
Adolescence is not an easy period of life, and at that time a young person is especially vulnerable. Addiction interfere with work, school, and relationships, the real world seems to fade in comparison with hours-long chats and hundreds of messages.
These aspects cause psychological problems, as people start to feel uncomfortable in face-to-face communication.
There is certain risk for pregnant women and their children.
So it's strongly recommended to reduce usage of cell phones.
