Noise seriously harms human health and interferes with people’s daily activities at school, at work, at home and during leisure time. Traffic noise alone is harming today the health of almost every third European. The main health risks of noise identified by WHO are:
* pain and hearing fatigue;
* hearing impairment including tinnitus;
* annoyance;
* interferences with social behaviour (aggressiveness, protest and helplessness);
* interference with speech communication;
* sleep disturbance and all its consequences on a long and short term basis;
* cardiovascular effects;
* hormonal responses (stress hormones) and their possible consequences on human metabolism (nutrition) and immune system;
* performance at work and school.

I urge you to look at the material that has been produced by the World Health Organization. The WHO has no agenda other than ensuring the health and
well -being of people everywhere. The WHO has no political ax to grind, no profit motive and no favorites.- Dr. Louis Hagler
