Summary: | New media technologies can be used to de-mystify the complex metrics used to describe noise impacts. For example, community groups and local decision makers can address noise management problems working with realistic noise examples, shaped to reflect local situations. Our experience using such technologies to address a variety of noise issues in different community settings has led us to a more fundamental problem. Not everyone is interested in improving community understanding of noise issues - or even interested in addressing such problems. Decision-makers and supporting professionals who are committed to having open exchange and dialogue need to recognize this. The design of effective programs can also demand change in organizational practices. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT] |
