More than one hundred million people in Europe are exposed to harmful transport noise - which is a major environmental health risk causing cardiovascular and metabolic diseases, and affecting ecosystems. An event in Brussels on June 24th aims to raise attention and exchange views on noise pollution, its impacts and solutions. It also marks the publication of the European Environment Agency flagship report ‘Noise in Europe 2025'. This provides comprehensive analysis and latest information on noise pollution based on reporting under the Environmental Noise Directive. The event in the European Parliament (Brussels) is hosted by MEP Antonio Decaro, the Chair of the Committee on the Environment, Climate and Food Safety in the European Parliament, and co-organised by the European Environment Agency (EEA).
