Jeromy Johnson tells us how to reduce our family’s EMF exposure - video

jeromy80 Jeromy: Welcome. I have a master's degree in engineering and had a successful career in Silicon Valley before I began to experience negative health effects from wireless technology and electrical pollution.

My wife is a medical doctor and we created this website to help you quickly and easily reduce the electro-magnetic field (EMF) pollution in your life. We also provide solutions if you are already experiencing the effects of EMF pollution.

On February 6th, I had the opportunity to speak at TEDxBerkeley. The title of my talk was “Wireless Wake-Up Call.” I discussed the health effects related to the explosion in wireless technology the past few years, along with solutions that can help everyone. Within the presentation, I also talked about how we can develop technology that is much safer for humanity.
