illustrates the worrying situation of the people living in Cesano, a village
near the Vatican Radio's aerials. As a consequence of the installation
expansion carried out by the S.V. Corporation, dozens of new fixed and rotating
aerials, over 100 mt high, were added. Epidemiological research proved that the
electromagnetic pollution is at least three times higher than the maximum
levels allowed by law. The high rate of cancer and of acoustic pollution has
urged the residents to official protest. But the aerials have never been either
removed or modified being extraterritorial and therefore not liable to prosecution.
