  • Avoid loud music, which hurts your ears and others' ears.
     
  • Firecrackers are extremely loud. So don't try and burn them unnecessarily.
     
  • Motors, machines and vehicles also produce loud noises when not maintained properly. Proper maintenance should be carried out for better performance.
     
  • If you are working in an area where there are loud noises, you must wear earplugs to prevent loss of hearing.
     
  • When going to theme parks and such, avoid riding on the rides which produce a lot of noise. One example is the ATV, which is like a huge motorbike.
     
  • Turn off the engine of your car or motorbike when you are not using it. It stops the annoying hum, and reduces air pollution!

  • Rake leaves by hand, don't use a noisy leaf blower.
  • Trim bushes or shrubs by hand, don't use a noisy bush trimmer.
  • Sound proof rooms that might have music conducted in them, like a room with a piano or if someone in the house plays drums or guitar or whatever. This can be done simply with curtains, window inserts, carpeting, and closing windows and doors.
  • Don't blast music on the radio or computer or speakers. Be considerate of your own ears and those of other around you.
  • Don't slam doors / car doors, close them easily and with only as much force as needed. People don't usually think of this, but imagine - how loud is it when you slam your car door? Pretty tolerable. But imagine thousands of people doing so. Now that can start to get loud.
  • Turn off the TV or radio when you aren't actually fully listening to it.
  • Train your dog not to bark so much.
  • Don't yell. Have civil conversations. Call someone or go find them instead of yelling across the street for them, for example.
  • Plant trees and bushes around you house. They help keep the air clean, absorb sound, give privacy, and add nice design and looks to a house.
  • Do noisy things (dishes, hammering, ect.) over or on a rubber mat to reduce noise.
  • Put carpets, rugs, mats, throw rugs, ect. in your house / mats outside.
  • Put fabric window coverings instead of plastic or wooden shades / blinds.
  • Don't rev up a motorcycle or car unless it is actually needed for the drive.
  • Don't beep your car horn "just because", make sure it is a legitamate reason.
