Increased fan noise since updating to MacOs Monterey.

I am not sure if I am the only one with this issue or if someone came up with a fix for an increased fan noise in the 2020 MacBook Air since updating to MacOs Monterey. Just with normal browsing my fans kick full speed or on FaceTime and Zoom it begins to go full speed. It never did it before in Big Sur so my question is if this is a software issue or a compatibility issue or anything of the sort. If anyone has a fix or know of a fix it would be much appreciated.

MacBook Air (2020 or later)

I have the same issue, and after the fans kick up, they stay full blast. I was watching a youtube video 5 minutes ago, and the fans are still full blast as I write this, and don't slow down. The computer is also getting hot, and it's killing the battery life. I want to downgrade!
