EMF's Natural Versus
Man-made in the Non-ionizing Spectral Region
In less than a century very few people realize how
much and how quickly we have changed the non-ionizing electromagnetic
environment we live in. Most of the changes have happened in the last 30
years. Now, all living things are subject to million of times more
radiation than 50 years ago.
For billions of years, the electromagnetic environment was virtually
"silent" in the spectral region below visible light which was the most
abundant source of electromagnetic energy.
We will never be able to experience
this peaceful world again
Nature's sources of oscillating low
frequency EMFs are few and extremely weak; the only
sources are the sun, distant radio stars and other
cosmic RF sources, and the terrestrial sources
originating from lightning primarily in the tropics.
Even the sun can not be considered a strong source of
energy in the non-ionizing spectral region, making
natural ambient levels so low that the possibilities of
biological or even health effects are negligible
[ref.1].
We will never experience that "quiet" world again. The
greatest changes have all come after World War II with a
trend towards the use of higher energy radio waves for
long-distance communication and electronic devices of
all types. Since then nearly every human action has
involved an electrical appliance, and today we are all
awash in a sea of artificial electromagnetic energies
living species have never experienced before.
The human species has changed its electromagnetic
exposures more than any other aspect of the environment.
For example, with the explosion in radio and TV
broadcasting stations, radio telephone networks,
cordless phones and cell phones, the density of radio
waves and microwaves around us is now many millions of
times higher than the natural levels in the same
spectral region.

radiation.
Grave concern was expressed by the European
Parliament after a series of hearings on the matter of RF/MW
frequency EMF health effects (Resolution B3-0280/92):
"Thus in the frequency range 100 kHz
to 300 GHz, 50 years ago it was scarcely possible to measure 10
pW/cm2 (10-12 W/cm2) on the ground in our countries. Today,
depending on the location, values one million to one thousand
million times higher are recorded because of the explosion of
telecommunications".
The same applies to ELF fields produced by the dozens of
electrical appliances owned by each household in the
industrialized world and the power lines feeding those devices.
Industrialized countries in North America , Western Europe and
China emit so much ELF energy that it can be sensed by
satellites in space.
Perhaps even more important than the increase in EMF densities,
most man made EMFs differ in one important aspect from natural
EMFs: man made sources radiate constant, regular oscillations or
pulses of electromagnetic energy with distinct properties,
whereas natural sources of EMFs are oscillating at random with
mixed, irregular frequencies and amplitudes. For example, AC
powered devices emit highly regular, sinusoidal ELF fields at a
constant amplitude and frequency of 50 Hz (Europe) or 60 Hz
(North America), and digital cell phones expose the heads of
users to pulses of microwave, with carrier wave frequencies of
around 900 or 1800 megahertz and modulation frequencies of 11,
22, 50 or 217 Hz.
