At present, the environment we're living in is oxidising, how this oxdising environment affect our life & describe the scenario when it would be reducing.
Answers
Answer:
Oxidative stress can damage cells, proteins, and DNA, which can contribute to aging. It may also play a role in the development of a range of health conditions, including diabetes, cancer, and neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's. The body naturally produces antioxidants to counteract these free radicals.

Noise Pollution
Biology, Anthropology, Conservation, Sociology, Ecology
Noise pollution can cause health problems for people and wildlife, both on land and in the sea. From traffic noise to rock concerts, loud or inescapable sounds can cause hearing loss, stress, and high blood pressure. Noise from ships and human activities in the ocean is harmful to whales and dolphins that depend on echolocation to survive.
