There is no evidence that electromagnetic waves from mobile phones or antennas cause climate change. The scientific consensus attributes global warming to the accumulation of greenhouse gases since the industrial revolution.
Climate change is not caused by mobile phones or cell towers. Nor by HAARP, the ionospheric research program the United States operates in **Gakona, Alaska**, which has been running since **1993**. The international scientific community agrees that the main cause is the emission of greenhouse gases, especially **carbon dioxide**, from burning fossil fuels.
## What HAARP really is and what it does
HAARP is an array of antennas that heats a small region of the ionosphere to study its properties. Its maximum power is around **3.6 megawatts**, a huge figure for a radio experiment but ridiculous compared with the energy that drives the atmosphere. The institution itself has clarified that it cannot modify the weather or cause earthquakes.
## Why mobile phones do not alter the climate
A phone emits non-ionizing radiation with a power of between **0.1 and 2 watts**. That energy has no capacity to heat the atmosphere or destabilize the climate system. Cell towers operate at powers of tens or hundreds of watts, always far below the solar energy the Earth receives every second.
## Where the idea of chemical trails comes from
The white trails left by aircraft are **contrails**: water vapor condensed at high altitude. They can persist for hours and spread out, but they contain no secret chemical agents. There are no peer-reviewed studies supporting the existence of a hidden geoengineering program, and claims about harm to health or crops have no scientific backing.
If someone suspects a respiratory problem is related to something environmental, the sensible thing is to consult a healthcare professional rather than draw conclusions from images or isolated anecdotes.

90% of wildfires in Spain are deliberately caused, and only 20% stem from pyromania. The trend had been falling until last year. Is it poor management or climate change?
Record taxes, politicians with impunity and benefits for those who don't contribute: the perception that being honest is for suckers is gaining ground in Spain. Does crime pay?
