EMFs and cancer clusters

for many years there were reports of associations between EMFs (eletrical magnetic fields) and cancer clusters (unexplained groups of cancer victims living in a certain location.

it became so common that it became a defacto fact.

i read a scientific report a while ago and i share this with people when i can.

apparently when air passes by EMFs it changes the ionic composition of the air to where the air carries more particulate matter. therefore if you live downwind of large powerlines etc... you are more likely to enhale particulates which in turn can increase your likely hood of cancer in particular lung cancer.

kinda interesting. i forgot where i read it. i'll try to find a reputable site with scientific data.
