Sound Pollution / Noise Pollution


When the exposure [অনাবৃত অবস্থা] of people or animals to levels of sound that are annoying [বিরক্তিকর], stressful [অসাড়], or damaging to the ears, it creates noise pollution. Today it is one of the talked topics of the day. It has reached an unbearable [অসহ্য] level. The unnecessary use of powerful vehicular horns is the main source of sound pollution in the City. The other sources are aircraft noise and rail noise. Besides transportation noise, other sources are office equipment, factory machinery, appliances, power tools, lighting and audio entertainment systems. Construction equipment also produces noise pollution. Besides, faulty vehicles, construction sites, loud speaker and thousands of workshops let out loud noises round the clock. This sound pollution damages millions of children’s power of hearing. Sound pollution is so much harmful that it can cause a wide range of malfunctions [সমস্যা] in the human body including heart attack, high-blood pressure, chronic depression, respiratory disorders etc. Noise leads to emotional disturbances, however, are difficult to measure. Irritating [জালাতন] noise at work place reduces [কমে যায়] concentration [একাগ্র] efficiency [দক্ষতা] and working capacity [ক্ষমতা]. We should take necessary measures to control sound pollution. By developing public awareness [সচেতনতা] and careful awareness and careful town planning sound pollution can be controlled. Strict law should be enforced [আরোপ] regarding sound pollution. Use of hydraulic horns should be banned strictly.
