We are working with an organization Quiet Communities (www.quietcommunities.org as they have had success in working with governments to quell vehicle noise. They are producing a very short video that will serve as the basis for local groups to customize the message.
We are looking for individuals who can be a small part in the video discussing how vehicle noise has impacted their health. An example would be a parent who has a child with a sensory disorder. Or maybe a person with PTSD. These are just examples of how vehicle noise impacts life at the time the noise is heard.
Do you know someone who might be willing to be a voice on our video? We know vehicle noise is a trigger for many individuals with sensory disorders and those with PTSD. We need you - can you help!!!
We know vehicle noise or noise pollution impacts the public health. There is research supporting the fact that noise pollution plays a significant role in many cardiovascular diseases. And then you have Noise Induced Hearing Loss (NIHL) which is documented everywhere. NIHL is caused when these micro hairs deep inside the ear canal are damaged. These micro hairs do not regenerate nor are they repairable. So NIHL is completely preventable. Yes completely preventable!
Do forget to share this petition with your friends and neighbors to sign. The next Georgia Legislative session is right around the corner. We need your help.
