Ø Noise pollution is one of the most neglected forms of pollution despite causing huge environmental damage, especially in oceans. For instance, U.S. still doesn't have some federal body that would regulate noise pollution.

Ø From birds in the sky to elephants on land to dolphins in the sea, noise pollution is threatening all types of species and altering the way in which these animals communicate, mate and even protect themselves from larger predators.

Ø Unwanted noise causes species to communicate louder which is known as Lombard effect.

Ø There are about more than 500 million cars on the planet and by 2030 it is expected to double to 1 billion cars. More cars will mean even higher levels of air and noise pollution.

Ø Noise Pollution is a contamination of the quality of the sound in the air (Example loud honking, construction sites)
