Answer:

Noise Pollution

Noise pollution also known as environmental noise means any unwanted or excessive sound that can have detrimental effects on the quality of life of human. Noise pollution is the propagation of noise with a harmful impact on human and animal life. Noise pollution is commonly generated inside many industrial facilities. It also comes from highways, railways, air traffic, and outdoor construction activities.

Negative Effects:

Unwanted sound (noise) can damage physiological health. Noise pollution can cause hypertension, high-stress levels, hearing loss, sleep disturbances, and other disturbing effects. Prolonged high levels of noise can cause hearing loss and several other stress-related illnesses. Noise often affects children more than adults. In short, noise pollution affects our entire general well-being.

Control Measures:

We can Reduce Noise pollution by turning off appliances when not in use or turning the volume of devices that produce high noise. Aircraft engines and automobile engines should be fitted with silencers to reduce the noise. Factories should be relocated away from residential areas. More trees should be planted along the roads because trees absorb noise.
