Environmental Noise Pollution

Environmental noise pollution refers to unwanted or harmful sounds from sources like traffic, industry, construction, and entertainment that disrupt natural sound environments. It can affect human health by causing stress, sleep disturbances, and hearing loss, and can also disturb wildlife by disrupting communication, breeding, and navigation. Managing noise pollution involves regulating sound levels, creating buffer zones, and promoting quieter technology. Reducing noise pollution improves overall quality of life, promotes health, and helps protect ecosystems.
