EMF Myth versus Fact from a lineman...
I'd like to reach out to the expertise of the lineman forum with the following question.
Concept: Utilize the large swaths of land, that are 'rights of way', under electricity transmissions lines (high voltage) for farming.
A rolling stock of pigs, turkeys, chickens, and cows that follow one another to regenerate the landscape and make use of what is 'waste land'.
Think of a nomadic herd, fenced off within the 'right of way', but moved forward each day 1/4 acre, removing the scrub, saplings and helping lush grass grow that they eat down as they pass over it.
Similar to right of way clearance crews, but using animals instead of large, heavy, machinery for the main floor of the right of way.
Set aside for the moment - regulatory compliance, insurance, willingness for a power company to engage on.
Question number 1: Are the Electro magnetic fields too dangerous to have people and animals operate under for long periods of time. Ie Limited research (Myth) shows that it may be Cancer inducing?
Animals and humans would be eating/working directly under high voltage transmission lines and as such, the goal is to ensure that they are not exposed, detrimentally, to high levels or radiation/electro magnetic fields.
Is the myth greater than the reality?
thanks for your insights.
