In The Beginning
Many of the early cell phones were considered to be “car phones,” as
they were too large and cumbersome to carry around in a pocket or
purse. However, in 1983, the Motorola DynaTAC 8000x arrived on the
market. Though huge by today’s standards, it was considered the first
truly mobile phone because it was small enough to carry.
Though the DynaTac and subsequent models were smaller, mobile, and
ultimately cooler, they still had their faults. Bulky, luggable models like
the Nokia Mobira Talkman and the Motorola 2900 Bag Phone had longer
battery lives and more talk time, making them more popular at the time.
As the technology advanced, cell phone companies figured out how to
pack all the features their customers wanted into a smaller, portable,
more affordable model.
A Shifting Purpose
Early cell phones were just for talking. Gradually, features like voicemail
were added, but the main purpose was talk. Eventually, cell phone
manufacturers began to realize that they could integrate other
technologies into their phone and expand its features. The earliest
smartphones let users access email, and use the phone as a fax
machine, pager, and address book.
Changing Shape
Just in recent years, cell phone designs have actually started to become
larger and simpler, making room for a larger screen and less buttons.
Because phones have become mobile media devices, the most
desirable aspect is a large, clear, high-definition screen for optimal web
viewing. Even the keyboard is being taken away, replaced by a touch
screen keyboard that only comes out when you need it.

Effects Of Cell Phones As An
Environmental Hazard
Toxic Leaching
The Natural Resources Defense Council observes that lead, mercury and cadmium
found in personal electronic devices such as mobile phones can “release dangerous
toxins into our air and water when burned or deposited in landfills improperly.” In
these situations, there can be significant environmental impacts.

CONCLUSION
The conclusion drawn from the investigatory project
finally states the mobile radiation is harmful to human
health. The effects may not be noted almost
immediately, but will be causing adverse effects to the
present as well the future generations because of the
ability of the radiations to effect and mutate human
DNA which have a high potential to cause mutations
and new diseases in the future generations. Mobile
radiations present a very high risk of brain cancer and
tumours in humans and most prominently in children
below the age of 5 years.
Precautionary measure should be taken to protect one’s
self and family and friends from the harmful effects of
mobile radiation.
Mobile radiation might not seem harmful in almost
immediate effects but is such a slow poison to cause
harmful effects to us and even our future generations,
in the long run.
