Noise Pollution

Noise pollution in India is a biggest issue faced by the people who visit India. It is very annoying to listen to cars, big speakers. The noise is upto 130DB this can even make you deaf.

yes and no it depends if your talking about humans or about an animal. perhaps a dolphin.

About as loud as a normal conversation.

You can learn about managing motor vehicle fleet risks by visiting the website in the related links.

no, because boeing 777 has more advanced technology than the boeing 747

radio,television,newspaper are many types of media can assist us in eradicating the problem of noise nuisance in our locality by generating awareness. use f news,reality shows focussed on social issues,articles,radio jingles, etc. can help a long way in making people understand negative effects of noise pollution

Effects of Land Pollution

1. Effects on Climate

Land pollution can affect the general environment of the Earth. Land pollutions leads to loss in the forest cover of Earth. This is in turn going to affect the amount of rain. Less rains mean lesser vegetation. The effect of all different kinds of pollution will eventually lead to problems like acid rains, greenhouse effect, global warming. All of these problems have already initiated and need to be curbed before the situation runs out of control.

2. Extinction of Species

One of the major causes of concern is the extinction of species. Species are pushed towards endangerment and extinction primarily by two processes. Habitat fragmentation is the fragmentation of the natural habitat of an organism; cause primarily by urban sprawl. Habitat destruction, on the other hand, is when land clearing adversely affects animals special such that their natural habitat is lost. Both the actions can cause some species to go extinct and others to become invasive.

3. Biomagnification

Biomagnification is the process in which certain non-biodegradable substances go on accumulating in the food-chain (in one or more species). The most common example is of methylmercury in fish and mercury in eagles. Not only does biomagnification put the particular species at risk, it puts all the species above and below it at risk, and ultimately affects the food pyramid.

4. Effects on Biodiversity

Species extinction and biomagnification is going to overthrow the balance of nature very significantly. The main reason for this is disturbance created in the food chain. To give you a very simple example - on account of biomagnification of mercury in eagles, they might go extinct in the subsequent years. However, we know eagles prey on snakes. Less (or no) eagles will then result in more number of snakes!

As you may have realized, land pollution is indeed going to affect a lot more things than we though it will. Hence, I leave you with some corrective measure you can take on a personal level to reduce land pollution.

•Encourage organic farming - buy organic food

•Proper garbage disposal - separate your garbage before you give it to the garbage collector; and strictly say NO to plastic

•Encourage recycling - buy recycled products, notebooks, paper, etc.

•Restrict use of herbicides and pesticides - they are not only used in farm, but in your own backyard as well

If we reduce our contribution to garbage and litter, therein itself we will be able to significantly reduce land pollution and probably curb it entirely in the near future. Also do realize this isn't only about land pollution; it is about all kinds of pollution. We need to take steps to prevent damaging our Earth. We have no other place to go.

All those who are causing environment pollution (through using fossil fuels and causing noise, green house gas, radiation, thermal, ... etc pollution) should be penalized and pay for this pollution.

an easy way to de-stress is to have a bath and just close your eyes and relax but obviously don't go to sleep! another way is to listen to some music to calm you down, another way is having a cup of fruit tea, hope you feel better

we cannot classify traffic pollution as a kind of pollutions. Because basically it can be considered in AIR pollution. So the vehicles in traffic cause air pollution.

Follow the instructions on Youtube.

Apply Baby powder or body powder where you are chafing You can also use body glide where you are chafing.

Nuclear energy itself, in a nuclear reactor, does not produce noise. The associated steam turbine plant will produce some noise, but probably not much outside the plant boundaries. The exception would be when a turbine has suddenly shutdown and steam has to be blown off for a while, that would probably be heard for a mile or two.

Prior to 1989, interested New Yorkers recycled via collections (such as Boy Scout paper drives) and later at voluntary drop-off centers operated by concerned citizens and funded by the NYC Department of Sanitation. Recycling was mandated in 1989. Now, every building in NYC is required by law to recycle.

6.80 cents/KWh for the first 1,350 (step 1). 10.19 cents per KWh for everything after that, over the course of a two month billing period (step 2).

Yes because your ears get sore

No one knows, because they could not hear it.

All metal expands and contracts with changes in temperature, which can cause a banging sound in oil tanks, especially when outside. This is very rare with indoor tanks, as temperature changes are generally much more gradual.

Oh my. Yes. It is illegal in most places, because of noise disturbance. If this happens more than once, I suggest you tell the police. If done further, call the police and tell them of the situation. Hope this helps, peace!

Any sound over 85 Decibels is considered too loud and will hurt your hearing. Hearing anything this loud will start to damage your ear. prolonged exposure to sounds this loud will cause irreversible damage to your ears.

Uses of fuels in cars , industries , household activities , etc.

Yes, they are fitted with silencers so that they will not make noise pollution/ simply noise.

I can only relate my personal experiences. We have two two-wheel drive pulling trucks that we compete with on the Grand National Truck and Tractor Pulling Circuit. I have grown up around farming and tractor pulling all of my life. I met my husband at a tractor pull and I know start the engines of the trucks. The trucks have an injected motor (very, very loud) and run on methane gas. The best way to describe these engines are--they are like the engines you would see drag racers use on T.V. Well I was due in September, so needless to say I started the engines my entire pregnancy and was around loud noises otherwise for about all day every weekend....Our last pull was when I was 37 1/2 weeks pregnant. I would ask my doctor this question a lot. He said it was fine because the baby is so well protected inside. After having the baby it was the test I would always make sure was administered and I would ask everyone that came in for the results. Everything was fine. My son is now 20 months old and loves the loud noise and isn't afraid of it and he loves tractors on the farm and going to tractor pulls. he uses the ear muffs now. you will hear that a lawn mower is too loud and decibles are too high. Well what I was around was about 100 times louder.
