The BioInitiative Report provides an excellent accounting of the danger involved with various non-ionizing, non-thermal extremely low frequency electromagnetic field (ELF EMF) radiations and close exposures.
This is especially relevant to avid users of vehicles that generate excessive ELF EMF magnetic field radiations in the seat area. Of concern are motorcycles, all-terrain vehicles (ATVs), quad bikes, hybrid electric vehicles, etc.
Consumer product labeling of excessive ELF EMF emissions would enable people to make personal health decisions at the time of purchase. I developed the motorcycle cancer website for rider safety.
