Noise does not discriminate, it has no face, no limits, no dimensions however it has an identity which is described as a loud, surprising, irritating, static or unwanted sound, just to name a few. Noise affects people in different ways, from natural noise to artificial noise. It will be here and it will have a substantial effect on our lives. Noise exists in every area where some type of energy of any kind occurs. Any form of noise can be very harmful to our hearing. Both the level of noise and the length of time you listen to it constantly can put you at risk for hearing loss and stress. In today's reality, we live in an era where most noises are mostly man-made. This generation was often unaware that these types of noises we live with are less than two thousand years old. During the industrial revolution, the world was transitioning to the age of machines with a strong attachment to noises. This transition referred to the move from handmade to machine and factory. Because of these needs, of the so-called economic production of goods, we allow ourselves to live in a very polluted environment. Noise is one of the pollutants created by this transition, and the first that was created on the first day the machine was created and generated energy. At the same time, noise has started to cause damage to our ecosystem and ultimately have a major impact on human well-being, such as aggression, hypertension, high stress level, hearing loss and sleep disturbances. The main source of noise pollution comes from transport. , construction and industrial. Noise pollution in our oceans is constantly increasing, due to demand from commercial and military maritime traffic, sh...... middle of paper ......in, 137(4), 682-707. doi:10.1037/a0023987.Weilgart, L.
