Environmental pollution

 Noise Pollution

  • Noise pollution has been acknowledged as a type of environmental pollution since the industrial age. It is the presence of noise in the environment at levels that are destructive to human health and the health of other organisms existing in that environment. Noise pollution affects body balance. We are exposed to high sound levels throughout the day, at home, work places, schools, hospitals, markets, parks ,streets and other public places.
  • Noise level is measured in decibels (dB). The World Health Organization (WHO) set industrially acceptable noise levels at 75 dB. Noise levels of 90 dB cause auditory weakness. Exposure to noise levels beyond 100 dB can cause permanent hearing loss
  • Noise pollution is the leading cause of hearing loss in children and adults. Construction, transport, and daily human activities all play a role in generating noise.
  • Common sources of outdoor noise are machines, motor vehicle engines, aircraft, and trains, explosions, construction activities, and music performances.
  • Effects of noise pollution include tinnitus, hearing loss, sleep disturbances, hypertension, high-stress levels, uneasiness, heart attack, stroke, poor performance, and speech interference
