Does noise pollution get under your skin?

Does noise pollution get under your skin? On the next Your Call we'll talk about our increasingly loud world with Garret Keizer, author of The Unwanted Sounds of Everything We Want: A Book About Noise. Noise, defined as unwanted sound, can cause stress, disease, and violence. So what does it say about our society that we keep producing more and more things that keep our ears buzzing?

Join us live at 11 or send us an email at feedback@yourcallradio.org. What rights do we have to make noise? And what rights do we have to the absence of noise? It's Your Call with Rose Aguilar and you.

Guest:
Garret Keizer, author of The Unwanted Sound of Everything We Want: A Book About Noise.
