Do cellular phone towers cause cancer?

The consensus of the international scientific community is that the power from mobile phone base station antennae is far too low to produce health hazards.

Nothing has been proven negative so far despite the extensive amount of research made around the subject.

It is essential however for people to keep their distance from the base station antennae and not the structures supporting them.
