Festival and noise pollution in your locality evs project
Answers
Crackers hold a fascination for both young and old alike. Crackers of varied colors and sounds fill the skies heralding India’s favorite festival. But these crackers spoil our environment by causing noise and air pollution and also affect our health. The smoke of fireworks consists mainly of fine toxic dusts and chemicals that easily enter the lungs and presents a danger for those already sick as well as for the healthy.
Asthma patients staying in congested localities are more likely to suffer as the smoke generated by fire crackers does not disperse easily.
The use of fire crackers during the festive season of Dussehra and Diwali pose health hazards causing noise and air pollution. Noise pollution can cause hearing loss, high blood pressure, heart attack and sleep disturbances.
