Acid Rain : First deal with your own tears; tomorrow do something about acid rain.
Acid rain is caused by a reaction that begins when compounds like sulphur dioxide and nitrogen oxides are released into the air. These substances can rise very high into the atmosphere, where they mix and react with water, oxygen, and other chemicals to make more acidic pollutants called acid precipitation.
The ecological consequences of acid precipitation are seen most strongly in marine habitats, like streams, lakes and marshes where fish and other wildlife can be toxic. Acidic rainwater can leach aluminium from soil clay particles because it flows through the soil then floods into streams and lakes.
Sulphur dioxide and oxide and therefore the principal chemicals for acid precipitation. It also can influence human since the acid goes into fruits, vegetables and animals. In other words, we will get sick if acid precipitation doesn’t stop and that we eat those things. Generally, the acid precipitation affects man, but indirectly.
