And noise pollution has health impacts, “Due to an increasing number of mechanistic and epidemiological cohort studies, the past twenty years have seen a shift from skepticism that noise could affect non-auditory health, to increasing evidence for effects on cardiometabolic disease, annoyance, sleep disturbance, mental health, dementia, and children’s learning. Evidence for mechanisms via cortical activation and stress hormones leading to increased vascular and cerebral inflammation and oxidative stress has increased.” https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0013935126009795
Haha I didn’t know noise pollution was something people were against for the datacenters… I’m with you on that.
