part of our society and causes significant damage to our ears as well as increasing a risk of cardiovascular diseases. The field of environmental noise works to study what devices create the most noise and how we can reduce that noise to therefore reduce the harm done to humans. An increase in the intensity of a noise is the increase in the energy in its sound waves‚ and if this energy gets to a certain point it creates damage in the humans ear (70 dB). There are approximately 40 million people who
