inverse and energy
This is in contrast to dipole parts of the EM field close to the source ( the near-field ), which varies in power according to an inverse cube power law, and thus does not transport a conserved amount of energy over distances, but instead dies away rapidly with distance, with its energy ( as noted ) either rapidly returning to the transmitter, or else absorbed by a nearby receiver ( such as a transformer secondary coil ).
