Keep your ears safe with your tech
Lots of people, especially kids and teens, like to listen to music while walking, jogging, riding their bikes, or the bus or train, or just plain hanging around. Many use earphones or earbuds to do so keeping music to themselves, but also possibly damaging their hearing. When you listen at excessive volumes for too long, you can suffer from noise-induced hearing loss. For more information and advice on how to help prevent this, you can visit the CEA Digital Dialogue or The Listen To Your Buds Campaign site. For a more grown up approach to protecting your hearing, try some of the headphones or earbuds that allow you to set a volume control, like those from Crutchfield. And while you’re listening, take a moment to listen to us where it’s always safe.
