the common accord. The big cities are getting bigger as more people look move
in them for better opportunities and an even better lifestyle but what is it
doing to our environment?

area, is mystified and bamboozled by the high-rising skyscrapers, the bustling
city and a road full of opportunities, dreams and living large. They may think

lifestyle is taking its toll on the society. As people gather up in the city,
more noise and air pollution are imminent. There are many factors that
contribute to the damage being done to the environment with noise pollution. Noise
pollution plays a big role in the public health department.
