Comments:
Strict rules for controlling noise are debatable. Some people argue extreme laws must be applied to control the disturbing sound a person harsh others. The essay will discuss the positives and negatives of implementing these rules in social life.
First of all, applying strict rules in social communities may improve human productivity. It can happen because people give more time and space to put more concentration on the job or tasks without getting disturbance things. Apart from that, this law's implementation may keep the mental health of people stay healthy. For example, the United Nations of Health reported people who live near noisy area is three times more vulnerable to getting mental health problem rather than others in quiet area. Moreover, this application can assist the government to reduce suicide accidents in a country.
On the other side, the implementation of extreme laws against noise might increase the expenditure on building and renovating houses. In other words, people have to buy soundproofing materials which are expensive and take up more space in the building. Furthermore, these strict rules also may limit people to socialize. For instance, In Japan, people who want to create a party or celebration at home must get permits from neighbors and local authorities. It means the rules are possible to make people anti social.
In conclusion, the application of stric rules in social communities are having outweight advantages rather than disadvantages. This could be more suitable to apply to the communities as long as the local authorities and residents are commit to implement the laws.
