Non-ionizing radiation, like visible light and microwaves, do not do anything to you.
Cell phones emit microwave radiation, just like every other wireless device in your home, like your wi fi, cordless phones, etc. Microwave radiation is a form of radiowave that has a frequency between 1GHz and 1000GHz. The type of radiation that hurts you is 100,000,000GHz, in the extreme side of the ultraviolet spectrum.
I remember looking at a radiation chart and seeing that microwaves are in the harmless spectrium however, an actual 900w microwave can do quite a bunch of damage to your skin. I am not sure if it can cause cancer but it can certainly accelerate the movement of molecules making things very hot. If microwaves are harmless, what is it about kitchen microwaves that make them able to do damage?
There is a grate on the front of your microwave that stops the radiation from getting out. Assuming that wasn't in there and assuming you got into the microwave, you'd have to stay there for a while since what it does is excite the water molecules in your food/body.
Cell phones emit radio frequencies though.

If there is no ill effects then why have a cap at 1.6 in North America and 2.0 in Europe. What difference does it make?
Any of you genius' think of that?
