The European Union Against Aircraft Nuisance announced its next webinar on March 25 at 6 p.m. Central European Time. That’s noon in New York and 9 a.m. in Los Angeles. The speaker is Thomas Münzel from Mainz, Germany. Münzel is a pioneer in studying the adverse health effects of aircraft noise.
When flight patterns at the local airport changed, the planes flew directly over Münzel’s house. He began to do research, which showed the adverse effects of this noise. This article in Knowable Magazine tells his story. His 2018 article detailing these adverse effects in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology has been cited more than 500 times in other peer-reviewed scientific publications, including in mine.
The UECNA webinar requires registration, which can be found at this link. It’s well worth your while to register to attend Münzel’s webinar. You’ll be glad you did.
