Certain parts of it can be. High frequency waves such as X-rays, gamma rays, and ultraviolet light can cause radiation burns and cancer.

At the same time, life could not exist without the electromagnetic spectrum. The sun heats the earth through electromagnetic waves, and the light that drives photosynthesis is also part of that spectrum. Visible light, which allows us to see, is in the same range.
