Noise 2050 | Forecasting Ireland’s Future Soundscape
Noise 2050 is a pioneering research initiative aimed at predicting and assessing the future noise environment in Ireland by 2050. This project addresses the critical issue of noise pollution, which is a significant but often overlooked environmental and public health challenge. With increasing urbanisation, evolving transportation technologies, and ambitious climate goals, understanding and managing noise pollution has become more important than ever. The project will:
- Forecast Ireland’s national soundscape out to 2050 (transport, renewables, new tech).
- Engage citizens in the country’s first large-scale participatory noise-monitoring campaign.
- Design & test next-generation mitigation solutions and provide policy guidance.
