Why countries that do not produce acid rain still can suffter from it?

Because the gasses that eventually cause acid rain are everywhere in the atmosphere and clouds. As wind patterns move over the earth, they carry these gasses everywhere they go. The rain falls where it will. The acid rain gasses could come from hundreds or thousands of miles away.


Which gases in the air cause acid rain?

The main gases in the air that cause acid rain are sulfur dioxide (SO2) and nitrogen oxides (NOx). When these gases react with water vapor in the atmosphere, they form sulfuric acid and nitric acid, which can then fall to the ground as acid rain.


How does acid rain affect your roads?
