Acid rain impacts several parts of the environment:
Water: Acidic water affects the growth and health of fish and other aquatic life, by reducing the pH of the water and impacting the health and breeding success of the fish and aquatic invertebrates. It also dissolves metals out of sediments and rocks to increase the metals (e.g., lead) in the water. These can be taken up by the plants and contaminate the associated seeds or fruit.
Land: Acid rain impacts crop growth and soil structure. It can affect the growth of plants as many plants have a specific soil pH for optimum growth. In addition it can leach nutrients out of the topsoil, into the groundwater and into the water table. The leaching of nutrients from the soil makes them unavailable to plant life. Acid precipitation can change the ionic balance in clayey soils, affecting their structure.
Infrastructure: Acid rain can corrode metal structures and erode cement, limestone and marble buildings.
Forest Ecology: Acid rain damages trees at high elevations. An acid rain damaged forest contains fewer environmental niches for wildlife.
Public Health: The pollutants that cause acid rain -- sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides -- are inhaled and cause an increase in heart and lung conditions (and premature death).
This list does not include secondary efffects like the reduction of predators' prey caused by the reduction of fish numbers.
the chemicals in acid rain can be very harmful on a humans health. Also if it is absorbed by the plants and animals that that we use for food, when we eat them it can cause brain damage and kidney problems just to name a few. :)
the particle that get into the air can cause lung diseases like Asthma. and also cardiac (heart) problem .
cid rain does not directly affect human health. The acid in the rainwater is too dilute to have direct adverse effects. However, the particulates responsible for acid rain (sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides) do have an adverse effect. Increased amounts of fine particulate matter in the air do contribute to heart and lung problems including asthma and bronchitis
Acid rain harms the environment by putting too much acid in the soil. The soil needs a good PH balance to maintain the integrity of the soil for planting crops and growing other things like grass and flowers.
It doesn't hurt people, only plants, statues, animals and more. Acid rain will hurt people when it will get stronger.
Yes. Acid Rain is harmful to human beings. It contains Sulphuric acid, Nitrogen acids, Methane and some other harmful substances. So it is harmful to human beings.
Acid rain affects human lives by killing off plants that require a clean water source, weakening buildings and bridges.
ACID RAIN and RUST are harmful because it contains harmful gases like sulphuric acid etc... mainly sulphur gasesbecause of this harmful gases when they reach the atmosphere when it rains it forms acid rain as the harmful gases mix with the atmosphere .This acid rain will affect plants,animals humans and all living organism.The acid mainly occurs at industrial areas because of these harmful gases which are released by the industrial effluents.they are definitely harmful to the atmosphere.

ACID RAIN is harmful to our lungs and can pollute (i don't know if i spelled that wrong) the water in seas, rivers, beach (it could get really dirty) , and drinking water.
Because the gases that are contained in the formation of clouds for acid rain are dangerous.
When it rains,droplets of rainfall while reaching to earth mix with hazardous gases like Sulphuric acid(H2SO4),Nitric acid. Such rainfall is called as Acid rain fall. These gases are very harmful to humans. Such rain causes itching to human skin,rashes on skin.
There are NO advantages in acid rain. Acid rain has dissolved the harmful fumes from factory and vehicle pollution to turn neutral rain into acid. This acid then damages plants, animals, landscapes and buildings as it falls to earth.
It is formed by which harmful GASES combined with water vapor in the air paits will fade
Acid rain is harmful because it is acidic. Acids wear away materials and eat through animals and plants that are too weak to hold up.
