"Ah, the sounds of spring! Birds chirping, peepers peeping, a breeze rustling in the trees--as lawn mowers rumble, cellphones ring, and car stereos throb their way through neighborhoods. Warm weather brings all kinds of sounds to life. But hearing the natural world in springtime is getting harder than ever no matter where you live." (CHRISTIAN SCIENCE MONITOR) This article addresses the issue of noise pollution, noting that "along with legislation at the federal level, antinoise campaigns are under way at the state and local level as residents rally for tighter noise ordinances in a bid to reclaim their soundscape."
