THINKING SESSION

Brain Relaxer 2.1

Noise pollution has many adverse affects on

humans, including stress-related illnesses,
hearing loss, sleep disruption, speech
interference and loss of productivity. Perhaps
the most acute problem associated with noise
pollution is the hearing loss it can cause after
long-term exposure. Affecting the eardrums,
noise pollution can cause permanent damage
when present for a prolonged period of time.

From the above

news it is clear
that sound
pollution is
very dangerous in
world.
