                                            become  an ever-present  invisible  pollutant  in

                              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-

                                  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.
