Ever notice that you can always hear something? Loud music playing. Cars hooting. Trucks crashing through city streets. We can close our eyes, but we can't close our ears. Albert's solar powered car breaks down in Transylvania. There's nobody anywhere to help. A laid back bat explains to him how sensitive ears are and how, in a way, one can see with them as well. They learn what effects different sounds can have on us. Some sounds make us tense and nervous. Others are gentle and help us relax. We can go mad if subjected to continuous sound. And some noise can make one physically sick! Why do our ears ring after heavy metal concerts? What are the consequences of living next to an international airport? Noise pollution is on the increase. How can we protect our hearing?
