Paragraph - Sound Pollution

Paragraph - Sound Pollution
Sound is a symptom of life. But loud and shrill sound has become a burning problem nowadays. Normal tolerance limit of sound for a man is 45 decibels. When this limit exceeds 45 decibels, it is called sound pollution. Recently, sound pollution has reached at an alarming stage in human life. Vehicle horns and indiscriminate use of loud speakers breach the easement and cause sound pollution. These sounds are also produced by different motor vehicles, mills, factories, buses, railways and other modern appliances. The extent of sound pollution has already crossed the normal limits of human tolerance. Its impact on us is so harmful that we may become gradually deaf. The motor drivers often press the horns unnecessarily even near the hospitals, and schools, which causes serious problem to the patients and students. Patients can be directly affected by rising blood pressure. It causes lack of concentration in studies. It is also extremely harmful for our hearing and brain. Our young generation has a peculiar fascination towards listening music at high volume. Besides, there are many hotels and shops at the roadsides and these shops and hotels also tune their audio system loudly to attract customers. All these cause sound pollution. Medical specialists say that sound pollution may damage one’s hearing system permanently. However, sound pollution must be checked to live in peace. By developing public awareness and careful town planning sound pollution can be controlled. Besides, government should introduce strict laws to stop sound pollution.
