There has been increasing concern about the presence of dangerous levels of electromagnetic fields (EMF), especially in residential properties. With the increasing density of housing units (densely packed condominiums) in urban areas, the multiplication of EMF sources (electrical transformers, cell-phone towers, electrical transmission lines) and the plethora of household electrical devices (TVs, computers, wireless home networks) the levels of EMF that people regularly come into contact with has greatly increased. There is also concern that the explosion in the use of cell phones is adding to this growth.
Most disturbing of all is the thought that these fields cause increased levels of cancer. There have been many news reports about this issue, dove-tailing with a large number of governmental and international health studies (EPA, World Health Organization, UK Sage Study).
