POSITIVE ACTION
In 1998, a working Group under the Research and Public Information Dissemination (RAPID ) program (USA) recommended classing EMF's (electromagnetic fields ) as a 2B possible carcinogen. In June 2001, the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) has publicly announced that they have classified EMFs as a possible human carcinogen. The California Dept of Health Services (CDHS) has also classified EMF. as a possible human carcinogen. The low key language expressing these conclusions is that usually employed by the scientific fraternity. This should not detract from the importance of this latest, long overdue announcement - a welcome step forward in our view.
