With the rapid development of society, noise pollution in people’s social lives has become more and more serious. In our daily lives, pollution sources are widely distributed, and as the speed of life accelerates, people's work, rest and activities have also undergone great changes, causing constant noise and mutual interference.
When it comes to noise in social life, the first thing many people think of is the noise from construction sites, the buzz of flying airplanes, the noise generated by the operation of factory machines, etc. But in fact, social noise does not include construction noise, industrial noise and traffic noise.
But in fact, social life noise refers to, in addition to the above three types of noise, the noise that exists in residents’ lives and work in social life, and also includes some entertainment venues and commercial activities. Noise pollution generated by facilities and equipment. In short, noise from home appliances such as air conditioners and washing machines, speakers at commercial entrances, square dance music, harsh sounds from house decoration, anti-theft alarms, and quarrels between families and neighbors are all social noises.
Having a quiet and healthy living environment is what each of us yearns for. So, in the face of the inevitable noise in life, we must take corrective measures to protect our hearing.
First of all, we should improve our own awareness of acoustic environment protection, take the initiative to popularize the knowledge of preventing noise to our friends around us, and take positive actions to reduce noise sources: when decorating the house, we must carry out sound insulation treatment. Try to choose sound-absorbing materials and install double-layer glass to achieve good sound insulation effect; noise reduction treatment of air conditioners, kitchens and bathrooms and other facilities, and installation of home silencer equipment can also weaken the noise.
Secondly, we can protect ourselves from the sound source: for example, when the noise in social life is too loud, we can wear protective earmuffs, earplugs, etc. to reduce the reception of noise. Finally, we should play a good role in personal supervision of noise in our lives. Supervise and mediate behavior that violates laws and regulations and disturbs residents. If the relevant personnel refuse to cooperate, they can request the security agency to intervene.
It is imperative for us to put an end to noise pollution in social life and be the guardians of hearing!
