is the measurement of the amount
of energy absorbed in tissue, either
by the whole body or a small part of
the body. It is measured in watts/kg
(or milliwatts/g) of matter. This
measurement is used to determine
whether a wireless phone complies
with safety guidelines.
9. What steps can I take to reduce
my exposure to radiofrequency
energy from my wireless phone?
If there is a risk from these products -
and at this point we do not know
that there is - it is probably very
small. But if you are concerned about
avoiding even potential risks, you
can take a few simple steps to
minimize your exposure to
radiofrequency energy (RF). Since
time is a key factor in how much
exposure a person receives, reducing
the amount of time spent using a
wireless phone will reduce RF
exposure. If you must conduct
extended conversations by wireless
phone every day, you could place
more distance between your body
and the source of the RF, since the
exposure level drops off dramatically
with distance. For example, you
could use a headset and carry the
wireless phone away from your body
or use a wireless phone connected
to a remote antenna. Again, the
scientific data do not demonstrate
that wireless phones are harmful. But
if you are concerned about the RF
exposure from these products, you
can use measures like those
described above to reduce your RF
exposure from wireless phone use.
10. What about children using
wireless phones?
The scientific evidence does not
show a danger to users of wireless
phones, including children and
teenagers. If you want to take steps
to lower exposure to radiofrequency
energy (RF), the measures described
above would apply to children and
teenagers using wireless phones.
Reducing the time of wireless phone
use and increasing the distance
between the user and the RF source
will reduce RF exposure. Some
