Informações:

Synopsis

Because they can be clearly seen, air and water pollution get a lot of attention. But, noise pollution can be just as harmful to our bodies and our environment. Depending on the volume, tone, and frequency, certain sounds can cause heart problems, increase cortisol levels, affect hormone secretion, and push people to a mental breaking point that causes an emotional reaction.  Noise pollution is a little talked about problem that has been affecting our society for decades. However, Founder and CEO of Quiet Mark, Poppy Szkiler, is working to change that. Quiet Mark works with organizations to develop quieter products that consumers can find to create quieter offices, homes, and outdoor living spaces. Listen as Poppy joins Dr. Holly Lucille to discuss Quiet Mark’s solution to noise pollution.
