Tamil Nadu Power Looms Face Noise Pollution Challenges, Study Finds

Imagine factories with noisy machines, like super loud sewing machines, making lots of noise.

A study found these noisy machines, called shuttle looms, are causing too much noise pollution in a place called Tamil Nadu.

The study suggests switching to quieter machines and using soundproof materials, like special windows.

Workers who work around these noisy machines might not know the long-term effects of the noise on their ears.

Some factory owners think changing all the machines would be expensive.

To help, the government and banks are working together to offer money to make the switch.

They want to make the factories quieter, so the workers can be healthy, and neighbors can live in peace.
