The Potential Harm and Benefits of 5G Technology
TLDR 5G technology has the potential to revolutionize our world with faster speeds and improved video quality, but concerns about its potential harm to health and the environment have been raised. However, there is no convincing evidence to suggest that 5G technology will cause harm to humans or the environment, and the waves used in 5G are not powerful enough to cause damage to our DNA or break chemical bonds in cells.
Timestamped Summary
00:00
5G is a new mobile network that some believe will revolutionize our world, while others have concerns about its potential harm to health and the environment.
04:38
5G is the new way our phones will connect to the internet, providing faster speeds and improved video quality.
09:15
To access 5G, you'll need a new phone with a 5G chip, and there will be more base stations in cities to ensure coverage due to the shorter wavelengths of 5G waves.
13:10
Scientists are using beamforming to concentrate millimeter waves in one direction for 5G, but there are concerns that 5G may be harmful to birds and other wildlife due to the electromagnetic waves interfering with their migration patterns.
17:08
Studies have shown that electromagnetic waves can affect birds, but the waves that cause problems are more like AM radio waves and not the waves emitted by cell phones.
20:53
There is no convincing evidence that cell phone waves are harmful to the environment or wildlife, and the waves used in 5G technology are not powerful enough to cause damage to our DNA or break chemical bonds in cells.
25:13
The waves from 5G technology cannot penetrate more than a couple of millimeters into our skin, making it unlikely to cause harm to our DNA or brain, and the chance of any other harmful effects is very low according to an international group that studies radiation safety.
29:20
The power of suggestion can cause people to experience symptoms around cell phones, and the therapeutic value of millimeter waves used in 5G is being sold as a treatment for various conditions, but there is no convincing evidence to suggest that 5G technology will cause harm to humans or the environment.
