This week, Earthbeat
investigates the health effects of cell phones, cell phone towers, and wireless
internet networks. Some scientists say the radiation they give off can cause
cancer -- the government says it's all perfectly safe. Host Daphne Wysham
speaks to B. Blake Levitt about how cell phones work, and how cell phone
companies pay big bucks to put their antennas and Professor Martin Blank from Columbia University about the radiation given off by
cell phones.

Jerry Philips is currently
a professor and director of the Science Learning Center at the University
of Colorado at
Colorado Springs. He was one of the first scientists to study the health
effects of cell phone radiation -- recruited to do work by Motorola. But when
Phillips' research came up with results the cell phone company didn't like --
they shut down any attempts to publish his work.
