Many people have a hard time fathoming that something that they cannot see, touch, smell, taste or hear can harm them so much. However, we are constantly immersed in a sea of Electromagnetic Radiation (EMR) and it can affect life markedly. The rapid growth rate of mobile phones, phone masts and wireless communication systems, alongside various reports of possible adverse effects on living things, has caused increased concern around the world over the potential effect of electromagnetic pollution on health and the environment. "There have been many instances of harmful effects of electromagnetic fields from such seemingly innocuous devices as mobile phones, computers, power lines and domestic wiring. They include an increased risk of cancer, loss of fertility&unpleasant physiological symptoms.....". At present, the technology is being increasingly used with almost no effective precautionary advice to the public and urgent guidance is needed in order to alert the public and especially our children about the inherent dangers of over exposure to electromagnetic radiation. EMR need to be identified measured and remediated to significantly reduce its sources in our environment.
