Turn it down! Millennials' music habit puts their hearing at

risk - U.N.

Already 466 million people worldwide have debilitating

hearing loss, up from 360 million in 2010 and the figure is

expected to nearly double to 900 million, or one in every 10

people by 2050, the World Health Organization(WHO) said.

Over 1 billion young people are at risk of hearing loss simply

by doing what they really enjoy doing a lot - which is listening

regularly to music through their headphones over their devices.

"What we propose is certain features like automatic volume

reduction and parental control of the volume so that when

somebody goes over their sound limit they have the option that

the device will automatically reduce the volume to a level which

is not going to harm their ears," an officer said.

"Our effort through this standard is really to empower（授权）

the user to make the right listening choice or take the risk of

developing hearing loss and tinnitus a few years down the line,"

he said.
