The Sonic Pollution as Part of the Environmental Education for the Sustainable Development. (Review)

Abstract

The environmental noise is a direct but not desired consequence of human activities at the ecosystems, principally urban ecosystems. Sonic contamination refers to noise when it is considered a pollutant. The noise occurs as a result of the vehicles movement at the ways, constructive or industrial processes and it is also an environmental problem in the common life. Cuba has formulated some legislation about these problems; but it is a theme less considerate in the educational processes. The present paper presents an approach to this theme, and proposes it to be integrated in the professional education, essentially at the Technical Sciences careers.
