What the WHO cell phone announcement means for you

(CNN) - Radiation from cell phones can possibly cause cancer, according to the World Health Organization. The agency now lists mobile phone use in the same "carcinogenic hazard" category as lead, engine exhaust and chloroform.

Though the cell phone industry denies the claims, the announcement is enough to make most cell phone users question the safety of their use.

Today, Michael K. Hansen, senior scientist with Consumers Union, publisher of Consumer Reports, joins American Morning's Ali Velshi, Kiran Chetry and Christine Romans to explain what these findings mean and talk about safe ways to use your cell phone.
