Stop Noise Pollution in Bangalore! Mission Peace

To:  Bangalore residents, Auto Drivers and the Government

Mission ‘PEACE’
Reducing Noise Pollution by Autos and Honking
A step towards a Peaceful & Healthy Bangalore

What is Mission 'Peace'?
WHO we are: A bunch of Bangalore residents who have got together to transform our city.

Our AIM:
Noise on the road has a harmful effect on people leading to aggression and loss of hearing. It disturbs one's peace of mind and affects our health & well-being. Bangalore, our Garden City, is fast growing and with it increasing traffic & Noise Pollution. Our aim is to reduce noise pollution by autos and honking and restore Bangalore to the Peaceful city it once was. With it will come Peace, Good Health and Caring.

NOISE POLLUTION & HOW it affects people.
Noise pollution is a displeasing human- or machine-created sound that disrupts the activity or balance of human or animal life. A common form of noise pollution is from transportation, principally motor vehicles.

Noise health effects are both health and behavioral in nature. Noise pollution can cause annoyance and aggression, hypertension, high stress levels, tinnitus, hearing loss, sleep disturbances, and other harmful effects. This in turn has an effect on our worklife and in our relationship with our families & friends.


WHO is at risk –
Everyone in the city, especially old people, sick people, and vehicle DRIVERS. In particular, autorickshaw drivers, who are continuously exposed to the sound of their vehicles, & policemen.

HOW we PLAN to achieve it

1. Create public awareness on the unnecessary use of the horn & on the ill effects of noise caused by autos.
2. Promote the use of silencers in autorickshaws.
3. Convince Government Regulators to implement the laws on noise pollution.
