千禧一代面臨聽力受損問題
課程導讀
很多人認為在吵雜擁擠的地鐵、街道、辦公室里,只要帶上耳機播放自己喜歡的音樂就能不被外界所干擾。但長期使用耳機或者播放音量過大,都是會影響聽力的。
世衛(wèi)組織發(fā)布數(shù)據(jù)顯示,全球有超過10億12到35歲之間的年輕人正面臨無法逆轉的聽力受損風險,個人音頻設備音量過大是造成風險的重要原因。
面對如今這樣的形勢,我們應該怎么做才能夠保護我們的聽力呢?

"What we propose is certain features like automatic volume reduction and parental control of the volume so that when somebody goes over their s

"Our effort through this standard is really to empower(授權) the user to make the right listening choice or take the risk of developing hearing loss and tinnitus a few years down the line," he said.
The WHO is also looking at volume levels in places such as nightclubs and sporting arenas. It has some guidelines but they are not widely implemented.
