The prevailing increase in the use of cellular phones has raised a concern about the harmful effects of their radiation. WHO conducted a meeting of 31 scientists from 14 countries and together the experts have concluded that cell phone use should be classified as "possibly carcinogenic". Independent studies indicate the danger of glioma, the most common type of brain cancer from radiation of cell phones.
The towers that transmit cell phone signals are also considered to be dangerous as the mobile tower radiation carries innumerable signals to millions of cell phones.
