This monograph, Noise Pollution: Perspectives on Emergent Religious Bodies in Enugu Metropolis and Environs is, perhaps, the first major formal attempt at bringing to light or rather awakening our consciousness on the extent of proliferation of religious bodies within Enugu urban and its environs with resulting concomitant social and environmental harm. This harm arises, principally, from noise generation as well as disfiguring the zoning plan of affected areas. These often occur as a result of these worship centres springing up abruptly in inappropriate places without prior approval by appropriate authorities. There is a need to put in place relevant legislation/policies to control the activities of various religious bodies and mechanisms to enlighten religious practitioners on practices that will not jeopardize a serene urban environment.
