What to Focus On

  • Noise means an unpleasant sound.
  • Sound and noise are different categories.
  • Some sounds are pleasant and some are harsh.
  • Sound is measured in decibels.
  • A decibel meter is the instrument used.
  • 0 decibel is the faintest sound heard by the human ear.
  • Noise pollution harms the body and the environment.
  • The body never truly gets used to noise.
  • Noise during sleep can harm the heart and blood vessels.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Any loud sound is automatically noise, and any soft sound is automatically sound.

Noise becomes dangerous only when it reaches actual pain at 140 decibels.

If a person gets used to noise, the body also gets used to it.
