Swimming In A Deadly Sea: Awash In Radiation
Part One

Kathleen Deoul: That's pretty scary! But it seems to me that most people simply won't be exposed to either high doses of ionizing radiation or, unless they have a chronic illness, chronic exposure. But while you've been talking about ionizing radiation, isn't there another type?
Copulos: You're right on point Kathleen. The more common form of radiation is the non-ionizing form. As you might expect, its name is derived from the fact that it does not have sufficient energy to knock an electron out of an atom. That does not, however, mean that it is harmless.
Kathleen Deoul: There are different types of ionizing radiation. Are there also different types of non-ionizing radiation?
Copulos: Absolutely, Kathleen. Non-ionizing radiation includes ultraviolet light, visible light, infrared radiation, microwaves, radio and television waves and extremely low frequency waves. We literally swim in a sea of non-ionizing radiation. We encounter it everywhere we go. It is emitted by appliances, computers, power lines, ham radios and, of course, cell phones.
Kathleen Deoul: Could you explain a little about each type?
Copulos: Certainly, Kathleen. Let's begin with Extremely Low Frequency Waves or ELF. These are most commonly encountered in the fields of radiation created by power lines, electrical wiring and electrical equipment.
