i have no idea all i know is that the Empire State Building is made out of limestone in 1931 & the Houses of parliament in london.
Some old buildings toothpaste has limestone in cement concrete mortar bricks
Buildings and monuments made of limestone are greatly damaged by acid rain, air pollution, and weathering caused by wind and water erosion. These elements can cause the stone to deteriorate and lose its structural integrity over time.
As rainwater falls to earth, it absorbs pollution (natural and industrial) in the atmosphere which turns the rainwater slightly acidic. Limestone is affected by the acidity, and weathering and erosion is the result. The more pollution, the stronger the acidity, and the more damage is done to buildings and statues made from limestone.
Rainwater is slightly acidic due to the presence of carbon dioxide, which can react with the calcium carbonate in limestone to dissolve and weaken the stone over time. This process, known as carbonation, causes erosion and weathering of limestone buildings, leading to their deterioration.
cement (limemorter) as bricks on older buildings and in glass
it dissolves them
The Houses of Parliament are made out of Limestone.
because people like lime
the awesome josh building was made from limestone in 2003
It affects the environment we all live in, it destroys limestone, which means it destroys the buildings that are made out of limestone.

Because the building is made of limestone, and the shells became integral to the limestone as it was being formed, but they don't erode as quickly as the limestone in the rain.
Buildings made from limestone are affected by sulfur compounds from burning fossil fuels because sulfur dioxide in the air reacts with limestone to form sulfuric acid. This acid causes the limestone to deteriorate by dissolving and weakening its structure through a process known as acid rain.

acid rain decomposes limestone (calcium carbonate), causing houses and buildings made out of them to become worn
Acid rain can erode the limestone in buildings by dissolving the calcium carbonate in the stone, leading to weakening and deterioration of the structure. Over time, this can cause visible damage such as pitting, flaking, or discoloration on the surface of the limestone buildings.
taj mahal is one of the limestone buildings being threatened by pollution.
