Acid Rain By: Kristin Caves

Acid rain and which its formed The process of which acid rain forms is the burning of fossil fuels, such as coal, oil products from cars and also the power plants. The power plants release Sulfur Dioxide and Nitrogen Oxides into the air.

Acid rain and which its formed cont. After these fuels are burnt off they get transported by the winds and some of the gases get caught up in the clouds. When the gasses come in contact with the water that’s in the clouds, a certain reaction can occur causing acid rain. *One of the ways acid rain forms, this volcano's ashes get caught in the cloud and make a reaction causing acid rain.

Acid rain and its effects Acid rain has its effects on the earth. Some of these effects are that scientists have noticed that in certain lakes the fish population are mysteriously decreasing. Researches are continuing to document that acid rain is harmful and/or fatal to fish.

Acid rain and its effects cont. Acid rain itself isn’t dangerous to people but the particles in the air that lead to acid rain can be a serious risk to peoples health. *This is what acid rain does to the trees

Acid rain: Big Problem!! Acid rain has became a big political problem in the 1980’s, when Canada claimed that pollution from the United States were contaminating their forests and waters. About 14,000 lakes in eastern Canada alone are acidic due to the United States pollution.

Acid rain is mostly a problem… Acid rain is mostly a problem in the eastern parts of Canada because many of the soil and water systems in that region lack natural alkalinity, such as a lime base. It is also a big problem in the United States and Europe.
