anmade electromagnetic radiation (EMR) has
become an ever-present invisible pollutant in
Mour lives. Often referred to as “electro-pollu-
tion,” many of us are completely unaware of the sea of
man-made electromagnetic radiation around us, day and
night, generated by a host of wired and wireless devices
indoors, and cell towers, base stations and antennas out-
doors, which provide us with instant connectivity and a
great deal of convenience. For health-minded, independent
environmental scientists, researchers and technical EMR
professionals are promoting a move toward better aware-
ness about the possible adverse health effects of manmade
EMR, including effects on the developing fetus.

Even for those who don’t notice any reactions or symptoms, the data are
compelling enough to support efforts toward reducing exposure, particularly
for those who are trying to recover from illness of any kind, and those who
are pregnant or have small children.
