What are the causes of electro-smog

MobilfunkturmPollution caused by electro smog plays an ever greater role in our society. Due to the inexorable progress of information technology and the massive introduction of technical equipment into our household, we are permanently exposed to sources of electro-smog.

One of the main causes for the production of low-frequency electro smog are, for example, permanently radiating antennas and power lines. Also in the vicinity of TV and radio stations there is an increased of radiation measured. In addition, we are constantly exposed to mobile transmitters.

Even in living areas, the causes of electro smog are more diverse and more dangerous. Extension leads, cable installations and supply lines also generate low-frequency electro smog in the house. The biggest danger, however, are cellphones and Wifi. It has been proven that a cell phone close to the ear produces a stronger electric field than a nearby mobile radio transmitters. Cordless telephones and their base stations also show similar effects.

Not only cellphones and high voltage lines are known as sources of electro-smog, but also a large number of smaller emitters can become a potential risk. Although health effects take place when the field strength is high, today more and more people are affected by lower field strengths.
