A study from the University of Reading reveals that climate change may increase noise pollution from departing planes at European airports. Warmer air reduces aircraft lift, causing planes to remain lower for longer during takeoff, which could expose more residents to disruptive noise. Projections indicate that thousands more people in cities like London, Madrid, and Lisbon will experience increased aircraft noise by mid-century. The growing urban population and climate change's impact on aviation raise concerns about noise pollution and its effects on health.
