Figure Typical maximum daily exposure to radiofrequency electromagnetic radiation from man-made and natural power flux densities in comparison with International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection safety guidelines1 Anthropogenic radiofrequency electromagnetic radiation levels are illustrated for different periods in the evolution of wireless communication technologies. These exposure levels are frequently experienced daily by people using various wireless devices. The levels are instantaneous and not time-averaged over 6 minutes as specified by International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection for thermal reasons. Figure modified from Philips and Lamburn12 with permission. Natural levels of radiofrequency electromagnetic radiation were based on the NASA review report CR-166661.13 The Lancet Planetary Health 2018 2, e512-e514DOI: (10.1016/S2542-5196(18)30221-3) Copyright © 2018 The Author(s).
