Why don't the countries that cause the most acid rain always suffer the the most damage?
It is because of wind. When it rains does it only effect one area? No, the cloud can shift and move somewhere else. This is the same thing with acid rain. It goes into a cloud and whenever that cloud drops rain it drops the "acid".
What does an acid rain cloud look like?
Just the same as ordinary clouds. It's when the individual raindrops are falling that they absorb the sulfur and other gases from factory and vehicle pollution.

How can you tell normal rain from acid rain?
All acid rain aspects are from water pollution and normal pollution. Please add something if necessary.+++Not so much add as modify! :-) Acid rain results when the water absorbs certain gases in the atmosphere to become acidic. This happens naturally anyway, by dissolving Carbon Dioxide to form the very weak Carbonic Acid; but the main acid-rain producing pollutant is Sulphur Dioxide from imperfect combustion of oil or coal containing sulphur.

Does acid rain cause water land or air pollution?
No, it can't, because the rain is made acid by carbon and other contaminates in the air as it fall through the pollution in the air and it may pick up additional pollution and further concentrate acidity in water or soil carbonation of water acidifies it which is why ordinary water is not acidic but bubbly water or carbonated drinks are and this carbonation dissolves calcium in teeth or the shells of sea creatures There is nothing funny in acid rain.
