What is Causes and Effects of Acid Rain about?
Acid rain is formed when sulfur dioxide and nitrogen dioxide emitted from burning fossil fuels dissolve in rainwater and are converted to sulfuric acid and nitric acid. The acidic rain damages plants by reducing photosynthesis, makes soil acidic and unsuitable for crops, and causes heavy metals to leach into waterways harming aquatic life. It also corrodes infrastructure and reduces biodiversity.
