Question from Stacey
We are currently looking to move to a new twin and have found two possible houses. The house that is closer to school and more convenient is situated near large power/transmission lines ( approx. .25 mile away). I’ve called the town for more information, but since I do not own the house, they will only tell me that the wood poles will be converted to metal. What is your recommendation on living near power lines such as these? I’m not sure what else to do…

I recommend you hire an EMF professional to work with you on this. This is currently outside my area off expertise though I plan to get certified in the topic this summer.
The electric sense website and studies done by Power Watch in the UK have shown cancer and other health issues among people who live under 1 mile of high tension power lines. No need to hire an EMF professional. It’s a bad idea to live that close to the magnetic field.
