How does acid rain affect peoples lives?

* acid rain damages crops because it increases the acidity of soil. * acid rain corrodes buildings and structures especially those made of marble such as taj mahal. * acid rain causes acidification of water in the lakes and rivers which causes the destruction of living things in water.


Where does acid rain come from in Europe?

Acid rain in Europe primarily comes from industrial activities like burning fossil fuels, emissions from transportation, and agriculture. Sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides released into the atmosphere mix with water vapor to form sulfuric and nitric acid, which falls back to the ground as acid rain.


What is the major causes of acid rain?

The major causes of acid rain are emissions of sulfur dioxide (SO2) and nitrogen oxides (NOx) from burning fossil fuels, primarily from industrial activities and vehicles. These pollutants can react with water vapor in the atmosphere to form sulfuric acid and nitric acid, which then fall to the ground as acid rain.


What do you call the rain that contain chemical waste and causes damage to plants and animal?

That type of rain is called acid rain. It forms when pollutants like sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides mix with water vapor in the atmosphere, forming sulfuric acid and nitric acid. Acid rain can harm plants, animals, and ecosystems by altering soil pH levels and contaminating water sources.
