Acid rain is from the evaporated (and condensed) water that was filled with sulfur and phosphorus compounds. When this will come down as rain (precipitation), the sulfuric and acidic water can hurt the skin of people and animals,destroy plants and crops and can even rust metal! The worst part of acid rain is when it gets absorbed back by the soil. Once this acidic water will reach the water table underground, it will contaminate the water surrounding it and therefore makes it harmful if not purified properly.
