Acid Rain http://www.edf.org/content_images/a_building2.jpg

Acid Rain was first noticed a century ago when buildings in the area were being warn away by the acid rain.

Acid Rain is an acidic form of precipitation which can effect our environment as well as ourselves. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acid_rain

Acid rain can be detrimental to the health of humans Acid rain can be detrimental to the health of humans. Annually, in the United States and Canada alone, Acid Rain causes: 550 premature deaths 1,520 emergency room visits 210,070 asthma symptoms If it is not stopped, these issues can become larger, and more can arise. http://library.thinkquest.org/CR0215471/acid_rain.htm

Acid Rain http://www.odec.ca/projects/2008/shar8a3/AcidRain_drawing.gif

When chemicals such as nitric and sulfuric acids are burned in factories and forests (deforestation) and enter the atmosphere, they enter the natural biogeochemical cycles and are released in the form of precipitation (Acid Rain). http://library.thinkquest.org/CR0215471/acid_rain.htm

Acid Rain http://simonmccormack.files.wordpress.com/2010/02/p0013033-acid-rain12.gif

Acid Rain affects biogeochemical cycles because its acidity is added to water or soil in the cycle. It remains present throughout the cycle, thus affecting everything impacted by the cycle.

Acid Rain http://acmg.seas.harvard.edu/people/faculty/djj/book/bookchap13-19.gif

In the United States, Acid Rain is most prevalent in Northeast and West. http://acmg.seas.harvard.edu/people/faculty/djj/book/bookchap13-19.gif

Acid Rain http://www.gogreen4fuel.com/acidraineffects.jpg

Acid Rain effects our environments by damaging buildings, waters and forests. Its acidity is detrimental to places with balanced pHs. http://www.dec.ny.gov/chemical/8412.html

Acid Rain http://farm1.static.flickr.com/23/95658030_c68a00168c.jpg

Acid Rain can be prevented by stopping the production of emissions, such as nitrogen and carbon dioxide. One way to do so would be eliminating the burning of natural gasses or wood. http://www.blurtit.com/q179579.html
