A Serene Proposition
For getting rid of all unwanted noises across the United States, and for making a better and peaceful America.
It is a disturbing noise to those fellow Americans who desire to sleep in past six o'clock in the morning, when they hear an ambulance rushing to the house around the block, a lawnmower eating up grass outside a neighbor's yard, or a blender that a wife started to make herself a post-run smoothie. These noises do not just stop there however, they are around every corner of the daily American routine. Awakened not by the ‘rays of the sun’ that these citizens have set the night before but by an airplane's propeller, these civilians wake up to their first encounter with the awful noise pollution that grows louder

The use of publicly shaming people who are inconsiderate to another individual's tranquility will quickly resolve annoying sounds and will allow for a more enjoyable atmosphere. Some have already witnessed a small glimpse of this tactic in airplanes. Mothers are shushed and given cold stares when their toddlers have not stopped crying after a couple of minutes. In order to avoid more ridicule, mothers scurry to the closest restroom to hush the toddler. We have an opportunity to make this small unspoken rule official and acceptable. Vacuuming at extremely early hours can be eliminated by not frowning upon shaming. Babies can be withstandable, music can be moderated to a certain level, and sdfghjkl all with changing how shaming is viewed. Of course, there are some things that can’t be completely muted at the moment such as lawn mowers and airplanes. I believe that criticism of noise pollution would only act as a motivator. People would make more efforts to make things noiseless quicker. Next thing you know, airplanes won’t be heard roaring across the sky and fireworks will be able to be enjoyed without the senseless racquet. In the meantime, being loud would would have a connotative meaning and there would be more efforts to the keep noise level to a minimum. There would be a new cool and teenagers would spend hours on their beauties to try to have their …show more content…
The average lawn size in an american home is 8700 square feet. Researchers have converted this number to 26 million blades of grass. Cutting 280 blades of grass every three seconds, one would finish the yard in approximately four thousand sixty six minutes and without a sound. That’s about three days nonstop, so a more realistically, it would take a week to two weeks for a nicely cut yard. Coincidentally, it takes two to three weeks for the grass to grow tall enough to cut it again. Just like we Americans load up laundry over and over again, we will do this for the lawn. Yes, we already do this but now it won’t be such a burden on our ears. The lawn mower is just an example of many possible changes that we Americans can make to create a better U.S. of A.. Soon, touchscreen tablets will be more common than keyboards, heating up food will no longer be in a microwave, and only the sound of peaceful nature will surround

”the sound of stealthy flight” (10) shows that a child’s fear is overpowering, deepening our understanding of the amount of attention that the author pays to each sound that others would often disregard.
He may not have been on the debate stage in Houston last Thursday night, but Senator Lindsey Graham expressed tough words for his former Republican rivals during a speech in Washington last night.
Many people have skills that allow them to complete a strenuous task. Kids may hate when they hear their father’s or mother’s voice telling them to do a chore. Most chores are not entertaining. Green and plush with a distinct pattern, there is nothing boring about a managed lawn. Learning how to mow lawn is an important skill, because almost everyone has a yard to maintain. If done correctly, mowing lawn can be an enjoyable task. Peacefully riding around on a mower in the fresh air and sunshine can be therapeutic. Sitting comfortably on a riding lawn mower is relaxing, although, the process of lawn mowing requires many precise steps.
Cetaceans use sound extensively in both communication, hunting, and navigation. However as humanity continues to make use of the ocean we are constantly filling it with equipment that produces high amounts of sound. These devices are starting to have an impact on cetaceans worldwide, from mass strandings often linked to military exercises to area denials caused by busy commercial shipping lanes and seismic surveys. If consideration is not taken towards this problem now it could develop into something that could have degrading effects on cetacean populations in the future.
As I got stuck with the window aisle seat, my attention was diverted outside the plane; clouds as white as snow, and the surrounding atmosphere was completely empty, but the noise level on the plane was highly aggravating to my ears, so I forced in a pair of headphones into my ears. Yet, I could still hear the chatter of other passengers, the wailing from children and the constant repetition of the stewardesses asking passengers “Any beverages?”

The motorist in the video Top 3 Sobriety Tests No. 2 aroused the officer's suspicion when her car was veering between lanes the highway. When stopped, the motorist seemed uncertain of what she was doing and where she was. "I don't know," she replied when asked how much she had to drink. She was barely able to put the car in park and seemed more concerned about tying her shoelaces than the test or her serious situation. Questions which often arise when determining if someone is driving under the influence are: "Does the person answer the officer's question or exhibit a stream of consciousness talking that bears no relation to the question? Does the person appear to be disheveled or unable to stay alert?" (Gaensslen, R.E., & Larsen 2010: 122). The woman in the video exhibited all of these 'red flag' signs. However, the officer's use of the field sobriety tests indicates that even when intoxication may seem 'obvious' it is still necessary to establish DUI with objective sources of information. The ability of the driver to perform the tests assigned

The United States is blessed with an abundance of natural resources, including waterways, arable land, precious minerals, wildlife, coal, and forests. However, it is evident that growing business operations significantly impact the environment and that pollution is an unfortunate by-product of manufactured consumer goods. In the event a company produces pollution or damages the environment, it may be held liable to private persons, in addition to being required to pay a fine. There are several theories of law under which a private individual may bring a lawsuit against a firm for creating pollution. Negligence is a tort that allows a plaintiff to bring suit against a defendant for causing personal injury or property damage. Businesses that generate
Besides blaring stereos, the noise from kids screaming out the windows at each other is also a nuisance.
“I am a nice shark, not a mindless eating machine. If I am to change this image, I must first change myself. Fish are friends, not food (Finding Nemo).” This child's movie has some accuracy in the sense of a sharks image must be changed in order for the “mindless eating machine” label to be taken away. There is one movie that deserves all the blame for this inaccurate labeling of sharks, and that movie is “Jaws.” Released in 1975, Steven Spielberg directed a movie that changed the minds of ocean swimmers forever.
The sounds of the city at night mix with the laughter of my friends. Taxis honking, subways rushing under your feet, and buses rumbling, all carrying their cargo of dead-tired, empty-minded passengers, following the daily routine until they reach their doorstep. For once, I 'm not one of them, not riding my train after a long day at school, brain set to automatic. Today, I am wide awake, soaring a thousand miles high.
