When fossil Fuels are burned, they release sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxide into the atmosphere causing air pollution.

When these pollutants combine with water in the atmosphere, they form sulfuric acid and nitric acid, which makes acid precipitation.

How are fossil fuel and acid precipitation related?

Fossil fuel combustion releases pollutants like sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides, which can react with the atmosphere to form sulfuric acid and nitric acid. These acidic compounds can then mix with precipitation, forming acid rain or snow. The burning of fossil fuels is a major contributor to acid precipitation.


Does burning fossil and fuels cause noise pollution?

Burning fossil fuels can contribute to noise pollution indirectly, as industrial processes involved in extracting, transporting, and burning these fuels often produce significant noise. Additionally, activities such as drilling, mining, and infrastructure development related to fossil fuels can also generate noise pollution.
