Today, people are becoming increasingly dependent on technology to make their lives easier. There are a number of electronic devices like (Televisions, Computers, and Radios etc.) which we use in our homes and offices. However, these devices create a source of very harmful 'positive ions', called the electric smog, in the environment. This so called electric smog increases the concentration of the positive ions in the room which takes a great toll on our health. They cause deterioration in the condition of air in the room and take a toll on our physical, emotional and mental health. They have been shown to cause stress, headaches, and temporary depression.

The most dangerous levels of positive ions occur in polluted cities. Exhaust fumes from cars, trucks, and buses; factory smoke, cigarette smoke, dust and electromagnetic pollution all combines to create an intoxicating mixture of positive ions and ozone that gradually destroys our lungs and ruins our health. Some of the most common types of the harmful positive ion generators indoors are TV sets, microwave ovens, dryers, tobacco smoke, computer monitors and all the other electrical devices in our homes or offices. It has been researched scientifically that the amount of ions in the environment, that is acceptable by human is ca. 1100-1600/cm3. And normally in closed rooms were electronic appliances are utilized, this amount as low as 250/cm3.
