What should be done to reduce acid rain?

Answer 1

People are walking or cycling insdead of going in cars. Because Cars makes polution wich goes into the air and the wind blows the air and its chemicles (Sulfur dioxide and nutriogeon oxides and most important fossil fuels) And they go into a different country and rains acid rain when actually they arent the culprits to the problem. America and Britain are the culprits because they have the most polution (cars and electronic devices) Everyone is trying to stop acid rain and we need to stop using electronic devices and turn the lights of or even share a car with a friend. Please help to stop

Answer 2

Well, you could use your car less often. Your car's emmissions contribute way too much to creating acid rain. Take a walk, get some exercise, car pool, or take the bus. These are all ways to slip around using your car. Also, you could use less electricity. The way energy companies produce energy is by burning fossil fuels. If you see a factory that lets out lots of smoke, then you could tel them to put a mixture of limestone and water to wash out a dangerous chemical in the smoke.

Answer 3

Acid rain is caused when sulfur dioxides and nitrous oxides are released into the atmosphere (eg by burning fossil fuels in a power station) and react with water vapor to form sulfuric or nitric acid respectively.

One method of preventing this is to remove compounds of sulfur from fuels such as coal before burning them.

Another is 'flue gas desulfurisation', where sulfur dioxides are removed from the gases that are produced as a product of the combustion of fuels.

Answer 4

Acid rain may take the form of rain, snow or fog, and is most commonly created by the pollutants sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxide.Because these pollutants can travel great distances, acid rain is a global issue that should be addressed by individuals and governments worldwide.

Answer 5

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency issues pollution allowances or permits that enable companies to emit sulfur dioxide (SO2). These permits are auctioned off to the public and a permit for one ton of sulphur dioxide has sold for $80-$1,600/ton. The Acid Rain Retirement Fund raises funds and bids alongside polluters for as many pollution allowances as our funds can buy. We then retire that pollution credit permanently.

Answer 6

Reducing Acid Rain can best be done through these follwing: First,we should start at home,by simply doing waste segragation and recycling. Second,try to minimize the use of things that has CFC and Lastly,plant more trees.

Answer 7

installing electrosatic precipetators into the factorie chimneys

Answer 8

bye just putting a little bit more effort and pain in to it

Answer 9

they can give fines to people who pollute the air and they can inform people about this problem.

Answer 10

duu! OH... YEAH!
