TL;DR
Effects of electromagnetic radiation.
I've been thinking and researching recently about the effect on human health by electromagnetic radiation created by communication devices such as wifi, cell phones, cell phone transmission towers and high voltage power lines

What do you guys think about the energy of electromagnetic radiation produced by the above technology?
and the effect on human health by electromagnetic radiation created by the above?

There’s a lot of research done on this very topic that is accessible online.

The bottom line is that there is no short term or long term effects that we know of.

Basically, the energy of these electromagnetic phenomena is not strong enough to break chemical bonds and consequently not strong enough to affect DNA or RNA in the body.

Heres one study from the NCBI
