Open in App
Solution

  • Sound pollution on a whole can reduce hearing abilities, irritation and stress in both humans and animals
  • It can cause hormonal imbalances, increased anxiety, etc, especially in those animals that are closely associated with humans, for example, dogs, cats, cattle, birds, etc
  • This may have a negative effect on their population, reduction in number, migration and in worst cases extinction
This, in turn, will have an impact on the food chain and ecosystem.
