Pre -Book now
The noise level in Mumbai has been growing steadily in the past several years.
Places that were once quiet spots now have the decibel level of a busy junction.
Nearly 2 years ago Savitha Rao had an allergic episode which made it difficult for her
to rest. At that time , she became acutely aware of noise pollution. That led her to
research on the subject. And she realized that noise pollution affects our health
(mental and physical), wealth, happiness and environment. Unless crores of citizens
understand the seriousness of the problem the situation won’t change. This book is
comprehensive in outlining the impact and the spectrum of solutions. Truly a World
First.

2. I have never read such a book on pollution.
There is always a first time for everything. Noise Pollution affects your health
and that of the people you care for. Would you rather continue to endure the
effect or enable change ? In fact, you should read the book and encourage
other members of your family to read it as well. Or share the relevant
take aways with them.

in the book. What you will need to do is then to take action. Remember we
can't have status quo and change at the same time

If you spend any time at all during the day scrolling social media..then you have time.

To an extent - yes. But look where that has landed us. Let’s also remember that every adult contributes to noise. So, let’s take action on the aspects we can (you’ll be surprised at how many there are) while exerting positive pressure on local governments/ civic bodies to do what they must.

Before reading this book, I had no idea that noise pollution and its effects were so multifaceted. We often consider societal problems in isolation, but this book connects the dots, highlighting the multidimensional aspects, effects, and remedies of noise pollution. It made me realize how our actions impact not only humans but also animals, birds, and marine life. The short chapters are easy to read, and I found the book engaging because it relates to the noise we encounter in our everyday lives. The extensive research supporting the content is impressive. This book has broadened my understanding on many levels.
