In March, the CBC community blog asked people if it's better to disguise cell phone towers as trees. The results are very clear-more than 71 percent agreed.
Debido a que las torres suelen tener más de 82 pies (25 metros) de altura, son mucho más altas que la mayoría de la vegetación circundante. Por lo tanto, al menos desde la distancia, no se confunden fácilmente con otros árboles del paisaje. En comparación con las torres de telefonía celular tradicionales, definitivamente son menos destructivas visualmente.
However, they are not entirely correct. The human eye can easily find something slightly problematic. According to a CBC article, a woman described them as "like white pine trees on steroids."
Obviously, "disguised" cell phone towers (they appear in the form of palm trees, street lights, barn silos, and even church spires), although common in the United States, are relatively new in Canada.
If they must exist, and they must exist, then they don't look bad.
