We researched and looked to see if there were any relations to cell phone radiations and if it can cause cancer. This is a controversial issue because there has been reason to believe cell phone radio frequency can cause health problems, however, this is an a new subject that requires extensive studies. At this point, we are assuring consumers there should not be a concern, nonetheless, preventive measures can be taken.

This video will be brief and will mainly be composed of photos that relate to our topic and help the audience visualize our presentation. The video …show more content…
There has been many cases of health issues and problems in the past few years. Over time the influence and use of cell phones in our society has increased at a very fast rate. According to Burgess, in 1999 there were about 293 million cellphone users in the entire world (Burgess 2, 2004). This can be compared to the about 327 million cell phone users in the United States today shows how much the use of cell phones has increased in approximately 15 years. Also the risk of developing brain cancer does increase due to age. According to Burgess however, the issue of cellphones and their link to cancer was first brought up in the United States after an American Woman attempted to sue a cell phone company and claimed that cell phone usage had caused her to develop cancer (Burgess 75, 2004). This case was dismissed by the United States legal system but similar cases started to come up again in the United States, and in Europe and Australia (Burgess 75, 2004). This raised a concern among the casual user of the cell phone and helped to aware people to begin to question whether or not cell phones are truly safe. History has shown people have associated health concerns with cell phones. However, research is in its developmental stages and it is has not been concluded if cell phone radiation links to cancer or …show more content…
A rising concern about cellphone radiation occurred in the early 2000’s. Several years have passed and those concerned with the issue are now out of their teens and 20’s. Older adults tend to be more skeptical of cell phones due to them not always being around. Cell phones were introduced at a later part in their life.

Among online adult users, 63% of people 50-64 are on Facebook, which makes the internet an excellent avenue for information to travel quickly to the middle-aged consumer as their social media activity has increased. Older adults would be more likely to view it on television because they are not seen on the internet as much. Seeing a visual of other people taking precaution with the issue will help influence those viewing to take precaution
