In Electromagnetic hypersensitivity: Fact or Fiction?, University of Calgary professor Stephen Genuis refers to the Substitution principle:

''If risks to the environment and human health and safety can be reduced by replacing a chemical substance or product either by another substance or by some non-chemical technology, then this replacement should take place. All decisions on such substitutions should be based on the best available evidence. This evidence can be sufficient to warrant a substitution even if quantitative risk estimates cannot be made.''

The Substitution Principle, SWEDISH CHEMICALS AGENCY,  November 2007
