Noise Pollution
Storyboard Text
- Oh my! I did not know!
- I think that you are suffering some hearing damage from the loud noises of the city and the neighbor's music. Research has found that exposure to loud noise can damage the auditory system and result in hearing loss. I think that is what has happened in the case of your hearing.
- According to my online research, noise pollution can trigger the stress response of the body. Certain hormones associated with stress are released in the presence of loud noise. Apparently, a reaction the processor that determines danger signals, the amygdala, occurs when loud noise is detected. Cortisol, the stress hormone, is released as a result to create an involuntary startle reaction. So, the noise is the cause of my stress!
- Hey dude! Could you turn your music down please! It is causing serious health effects!
- I'm so stressed!! I'm going to fail this test!!
- uh-huh, Dr. Cal
- ...what I believe you were suffering from is hypertension and a mild heart attack. Have you been in the presence of loud noise today? Hypertension, which is high blood pressure, can be brought on by loud noise. Cortisol production is also increased in the presence of loud noise. This increases risks of myocardial infarction - a heart attack. Loud noise damages your heart and bodily functions, so watch out for the volume of your music!
- Bro! Calm down! I think that this loud music from your neighbors is causing some serious psychological issues! Did you know that exposure to intense noise levels is commonly associated with personality changes and violent reactions? I believe that was what spurred on your angry outburst!
