Question
What do you do in the following situations:
Exposed to a series of firecrackers with high sound level.
Solution
When we are exposed to a series of bursting firecrackers with high decibel levels, we should immediately cover our ears. This will protect our ears from the internal damage caused by the intense sound. In case the firecrackers are burst in a silence zone, we will immediately report the
situation to a nearby police station so that strict action can be taken. Lighting of such firecrackers causes air pollution and contributes to noise pollution.
