What Noise pollution?

Malta Independent Friday, 15 July 2005, 00:00 Last update: about 20 years ago

Now that summer is here, the blasted petard bombs are everywhere. Are we entitled for peace and quiet at home? Is this anything to do with Christian religion? It is more to do with a carnival!

There are lots of people who agree that it is immoral and disgusting to cause pain to others – with people not being able stay at home in peace and tranquillity because of the unthoughtfulness of some who have no respect to others.

What they do is causing unnecessary noise pollution to all the ill people, old people and also animals.

I am not against any feast celebrations but at least spare a thought for others. About time the government stepped in and stopped these atrocities, making a law protecting the weak and the infirmed people, by declaring a noise pollution law.
