Belo Horizonte is the third largest city in Brazil. The Municipal Health Department and several universities decided to perform a study to determine if the microwave radiation from city's cell phone towers caused cancer in their population. The 10 year study found that if you live within 500 meters of cell phone antennas your chances of getting tumours will be greater than if you live outside the 500 meter "white" safe zone. Just after this study was published in 2011, the city prosecutor sued several cell phone companies and asked for almost 700 antenna to be removed.
