The possibly affected are a large number, people who live in the vecinity of electric transformers see high power lines a few meters above their heads, or they have seen how the new mobile phone base stations multiply on the roofs of their houses. If the rest of Spanish judges accept the spirit of the Murcian Court sentence, we must expect the radioelectrical background in Spain to get changed in a close future. This may be the spur that triggers a real campaing to bury the power lines, a fact largely claimed in urban areas, as well as new sites for base stations and emitters. Or at least, this may force the Administration and the service supplying companies to study thoroughly the real effects of electromagnetic pollution. A Court accepts, for the first time, that electromagnetic waves are a health hazard.
Scientists link radiation and cancer.
