Topic: How to stop noise pollution? (Read 764 times)

Soundproofing is the most effective method of reducing noice at indoor buildings being it a music studio, bar, lounge or even a residential house. But it won't work for outdoor buildings or places where the entire place is outdoor. You can't trap the noice there hence the reason why government regulations also need to be effective so that there's a limit to which a place within the neighborhood can cause noise pollution, so that people won't be affected by the disturbances caused by the culprit. This is mostly the case for my country that's why cars honk anyhow they like and public open spaces end up causing noise distractions and pollution.

People don't know that diseases such as increased heart rate or blood pressure can be triggered by noise stress. Some individuals also suffer insomnia because they cannot sleep where there is excess noise while for some it even end up as fatigue due to difficulties in falling asleep. I personally become easily stressed out and irritated the moment I get exposed to excessive noise distractions and it immediately disrupts my level of concentration to work or learning.

In most severe conditions, noise pollution can result in cardiovascular issues like stroke or hypertension, hearing loss where it causes damages in the eardrums. One aspect many people do not consider is the effects on children, you will come across parents who irresponsibly engage in house parties virtually every weekends allowing the kids exposure to loud speakers all the time. This practice can end up in negatively impacting on the child's academic performance or language development.

For us to deal with noise pollution, we have to first take time in identifying the products and cause to that noise pollution and work towards them, this will also need the help of the government in making law and friendly policies that curbs and also serves as an alternatives to how the people can deal and manage the occasion of noise pollution, i see this a global challenge and each region should be held responsible for the management.

Without government intervention, noise reduction will be almost impossible because it all depends on people's awareness, and I don't think people will have a common sense about this issue. If people were conscious and knew that making noise would disturb those around them, we would not have to suffer from increasingly serious noise pollution.

On this issue, I am in favor of government intervention instead of us solving it ourselves but we cannot complain if the government does not solve it. Because the government doesn't have enough resources and they need to prioritize more pressing issues, so we have to find our own solutions to stop the noise around us.

While it is beneficial for individuals to take responsibility for reducing noise pollution, you know it may not be easy and may not be effective because many people don't practice it, and noise pollution continues to increase. Therefore, if the government were to enact a law against noise, establishing a maximum permissible sound level, similar to laws in some countries, it could be effective.

 In those countries, exceeding the noise limit results in punishment. If such a law were strictly enforced, with punishment for defaulters, perhaps people would take notice. Those who host loud parties or drive noisy vehicles would adjust their behavior. As a result, noise pollution might decrease.

What I can do to prevent this problem as a citizen:

1.  We will make people aware of the harmful effects of noise pollution and try to inform people through local community groups, schools or social media discussions about how noise pollution causes harm.     

2.  Taking action against those who do not obey the law despite laws against noise pollution so that others obey the law out of fear.     

3.  Local authorities and security personnel should be proactive in this regard and treat noise pollution as a crime so that citizens come and obey the law.           

4.  Organize protests or awareness seminars on noise pollution and appeal to the local administration to take effective measures in this regard.     

   5.  Better urban planning is necessary as keeping industrial and residential areas separate will help reduce noise pollution significantly.       

  6.  Natural elements such as tree planting and water bodies help cities reduce noise pollution.  I will encourage local authorities in these projects.     

If we do not take proactive steps in this regard, it is possible to create a peaceful and healthy environment for the entire society

Noise pollution has been a major concern to the society. A lot of people feels it’s okay to disturb the peace and serenity of some people while it shouldn’t be. Africans has the highest habit of cause noise anywhere they are. If an individual want to listen to anything he should do so by not creating a bad omen to the person or persons who want to enjoy it quite environment. The better should better use earplug or other devices.

Noise pollution is a common thing in our country, nowadays most of the countries have this problem. To eliminate this problem we have to take responsibility ourselves, everything can't be left to the government, take responsibility yourself. besides noise pollution is caused by the cars on the road. for this the traffic laws should be made more strict, so that people Can't blow the horn for no reason.

One of the biggest and most alarming problems at the very present time is noise pollution which permeates our daily life. However if the government wants to play an effective role in reducing the level of noise pollution it can reduce noise pollution by creating public awareness among the people. So at the personal level we also have to be aware and refrain from blowing the horn unnecessarily and refrain from doing any work that causes noise pollution.

Noise pollution is very annoying for all people but it is not possible to eliminate it easily. Even if the government wants to it will not be able to prevent easily. The automobile revolution has become a major source of environmental or noise pollution in urban areas. Nowadays traffic congestion is increasing due to increase in the number of vehicles like buses trains and trucks. Due to traffic jams, excessive use of horns, resulting in unbearable noise is damaging the ears of everyone young and old and has a bad effect on the brain.

Noise pollution could be irritating because it distort many of human activities and there is nothing we can do to an extent in stopping this than to make sure we also do not contribute to all human activities that constitute what causes noise pollution, also, government through its agencies have to make rules and regulations concerning some of the activities that causes noise pollution in the environment we live in, have a plan towards that and enable a separate environment for things that causes noise pollution away from human habitat

With the continuous growth in population the around world, Noise pollution should be considered  a major concern In our environments and society. Noise pollution poses health challenge if not averted e.g( headache, deafness, fatigue etc) noise can interrupt us from studying, making speech and disrupt our sleeping moments. These factors contributing to noise pollution have been seen or taken for granted, although it can not be stopped totally but it can be reduced and controlled  by government. Government who suppose to play primary role in reducing noise pollution but are major contributors to noise pollution Airport, industry motor parks etc.

Government can play important role in our society to reduce these common factors causing noise pollution. Airport, industries, motor parks, factories  etc should be situated far away from residential environment,  parties, music and other noisy activities should be controlled with regulatory orders that defaulted individuals will face penalties this will help adjust or reduce noise to an extent in our environments.

Today sound pollution is a serious environmental and social problem. Sound pollution has serious harmful effects on our bodies and minds in the long term. The most harmful effect of sound pollution is on our children whose mental development is hampered. So prevention of sound pollution is very important.
Sound pollution such as loud box playing and use of vehicle horns were unnecessary Various kinds of whistling, making loud noises, etc. In order to prevent noise pollution, first of all, you have to be aware of yourself and as far as possible on your part make everyone aware in society and wherever you can go and organize public awareness programs on the part of the government And to explain how serious noise pollution is and how harmful it is to the state in the future. And using as many technologies as possible to prevent sound pollution.

Noise pollution is more common in less developed countries.  Among all the countries, my country is one of them, I think my country has the most noise pollution. If I mention my country here, then of course I am talking about Bangladesh. It is very difficult to prevent noise pollution in my country because even if you make strict laws in this country you cannot prevent noise pollution because the population of this country is very small there are about 200 million people living in this country. In all the developed countries where noise pollution can be prevented, the population rate is very low and every person is highly educated and civilized. Being a less developed country and having a high population rate, I don't see any good mechanism to prevent noise pollution from this country.

What country do you live in? All nightclubs have soundproofing, and regarding the terraces - if someone lives upstairs, the music there will never be loud. On the terraces, people socialize and don’t “hang out.”

And yes, bars also have soundproofing.

We might not be able to stop the aeroplane from flying but we can regulate the sound of vehicles in our location. The government can make laws that mandate car owners to fix their cars to avoid noise and some cars that have become bad should be impounded to curb pollution. Another agent is noise pollution is loud noise from music promoters, bars, and clubs houses. Most of these businesses create loud sounds with music to attract customers but they fail to recognize that they are disturbing the peace of the place.


Noise pollution has many health consequences, it could lead to hearing problems, severe headaches, fatigue/stress, and high blood pressure, racing pulse and it could even lead to heart attack in extreme cases. Noise pollution could also lead to accidents because in some cases people might not be able to hear danger warnings because of noise in the environment.

Noise pollution mostly causes psychological imbalance. There are only two ways to control noise pollution.

1. Sound proof
Sound proof glasses and doors are great means of noise pollution control, nother is the use of sound proof generator or eco friendly generators over other types of power generators, this is an effect means of pollution control.

2. Implementing the laws about noise pollution
Enacted laws need to be implemented strictly to avoid noise pollution.

3. Most of the noise pollution's are from generators mostly in African countries, when there is an improved public power supply, it can eliminate 90% of the noise pollution's we face.

We have different kind of noise. Some are just noise from normal conversation. This is still normal. But imagine playing a music to the highest volume, this is an example of what we are talking about here. I don't see this as a difficult thing if the government want to stop it. Noise isn't good for our health. If the government should make a law against it and  implement it. I believe people will abide by it as well.

There is no way we can stop noise pollution and only if we can stop aeroplane from flying and stop the movement of cars and music.
There are many things that can cause pollution and we need to know that stopping such thing from use can stop our production processes. Since noise pollution is not harmful, there is no need for us to know what we are doing and start looking for ways to end the pollution. I don't think that noise pollution is an important thing we needed to agitate on.

even in our country there is no such thing as noise pollution lol. but usually if there is noise we report it to the local leader, and this leader will come to him to stop the source of the sound or reduce it. but the majority in our culture have understood each other since ancient times and it has become a habit. If someone is sick, the local residents don't make any noise and let the sick rest. If a young person plays music when people are sleeping, he will usually turn down the sound of the music. if there are violators they will be ostracized from society so being ostracized by society has a more frightening effect than being punished lol. but I am grateful to live here where everyone understands each other, is polite and kind.

To overcome the increasingly troubling challenge of air pollution, an integrated and decisive approach is needed. one effective way is to increase law enforcement regarding noise pollution. The government needs to strengthen existing regulations and develop stricter policies to control activities that can cause noise pollution. Apart from that, it is necessary to increase public awareness through educational campaigns about the negative impacts of noise pollution on health and the environment. Sanctions for rule violators must also be tightened to provide a deterrent effect.
