Electromagnetic fields (EMF) are everywhere in our tech-driven world. From cell phones to Wi-Fi, these invisible waves constantly surround us. Studies suggest that excessive EMF exposure can have negative effects on our well-being. There are few low-EMF villages in the US and few, if any, in Central America. ECI has committed to developing an Innovative Sustainable Lifestyle Alternative (ISLA) neighborhood within Gran Pacifica Resort in Nicaragua. Gran Pacifica is an ideal location to develop a low-EMF zone because of its remote location.
Creating a low-EMF community is a vision that many have pursued, yet few have successfully brought to life. The ISLA project in Nicaragua stands out as one of the rare exceptions, poised to turn this dream into reality with construction beginning in early 2025. ISLA Phase I is an 83-home community developed on the Pacific coastline of Nicaragua. This innovative development aims to offer a sanctuary for those seeking a healthier, more mindful way of living, free from the pervasive electromagnetic fields and toxic chemicals that plague modern environments.
In this episode, Nick Pineault, of the Smarter Tech podcast, sits down with Mike Cobb, CEO of ECI Development, to dive into the details of this groundbreaking low-EMF, low-chemical housing initiative.
