How to protect yourself from electropollution in five steps

InFiveSteps.com ranking: 14    Key concepts: electropollution, EMF and cell phone.


Avoid or minimize exposure




While it would be ideal to avoid all EMF exposures, that simply isn’t realistic in today’s high-tech society. However, we can change certain behaviors in order to reduce our exposure to electropollution. Below are some suggestions.

USING APPLIANCES - Limit use of your microwave oven and stand more than 3 feet away when it is operating. Reduce the amount of time spent watching television; sit at least 6 feet away from your TV set when it’s on. Sit as far from your computer monitor as you comfortably can. Stay away from your electric tumble dryer when it’s operating.

IN THE BEDROOM - Don't sleep under an electric blanket or on a heated waterbed; if you have no other option, heat them in advance and then unplug them before going to bed. Sleep in a bed that has a frame made of wood, with no long metal parts, and a mattress/box spring without metal. Eliminate any wires running under your bed. Position your bed at least six feet away from any electrical devices that are turned on. Unplug any other devices in your bedroom, such as a computer, radio, or television.
Whenever possible, avoid sleeping in rooms positioned over fuel tanks, garages, or steel girders, or in a room where the electrical power enters the home.

GENERAL - Don't allow children to play near power lines, transformers, or microwave towers. Measure your home and work/school environments (inside and out) with a Gauss meter and avoid areas where the field is above 1 mG.

Avoiding or reducing EMF exposure in many everyday situations is a good start. But what can we do about one of the most popular sources of electropollution - cell phones?
