EMF

EMF means electro-magnetic frequencies. There is a spectrum of EMF. One kind is radio/cell phone /microwaves (a subset range.) It is the possible safety hazards of this subset that is being considered here. Cell phones have had safety questions for children. Primarily overuse of, use in a car, or living too close to cell phone towers have been what seems to be of concern. Possible bioeffects of emf pollution might include depression, anxiety, anger, cancer, memory problems, or hindered sleep.
