C Reducing the volume of TV
D Shifting factories to places far away from houses
Noise pollution can be minimized by reducing the usage of instruments that cause nuisance like blow horns, and loudspeakers etc, and also shifting factories, airports, and railway stations far away from residential areas. Reducing the volume of TVs and radios also helps in reducing the level of noise in houses.
