Primarily industrial pollution, with the sulfide compounds in coal being considered the biggest contributor.
The primary source of acid rain is sulphur oxides e.g H2SO4,SO2,SO3 respectively
It can indead affect your source of food and water.

Sulfur Dioxide
Carbonic Acid, H2CO3 , or acid rain, is derived from rain mixing with the carbon dioxide in the air.
Well,they spread because they are air and air spreads.Right?
The burning of fossil fuels, such as coal and oil, is a major source of gases like sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides that can lead to the formation of acid rain when they react with water vapor in the atmosphere. Industrial activities and transportation are common sources of these pollutants.
I can think of two. First a rain drop falling trough the air builds up a static electric charge moving the ph toward acid. Next hydrogen sulfide gas released from volcanoes causes acid rain.
Burning of fossil fuels, particularly in power plants and vehicles, is the primary source of sulfur dioxide emissions that lead to acid rain. When sulfur dioxide reacts with water vapor in the atmosphere, it forms sulfuric acid, which can then fall to the ground as acid rain.

The metal and the acid are the reactants. A metal salt and usually hydrogen gas are the products.
