Acid rain


Acid rain is made when coal with lots of sulfur oxide is burned. Then the sulfur oxide goes into the air and mixes with nitrogen oxide and water vapor to create acid rain! The issue is that the acid rain can damage statues and buildings and make ponds and lakes uninhabitable. It can also kill trees. What we can do is burn less fossil fuels and use Eco-friendly fuel sources!

The difference between acid rain and photochemical smog is very great. One reason how they are different is that my smog reacts with light while yours is carried by rain. Yours can damage buildings and make lakes lifeless while mine can just effect the atmosphere. Great job

Larry,the difference between London Smog and Acid rain are crazy. One reason is because London smog is caused by burning coal in factories. Acid rain is kind of similar but the difference is that acid rain is caused by coal with a lot of sulfur oxide is burned other than that, great job!!! dog?

Larry, Your acid rain blog post is very descriptive and it is very different than mine. Your post is about acid rain and my post is about London type smog. These are two different types of pollution but they are both very harmful. Thanks for teaching me more about acid rain.

Yo Larry!!! There are many differences in Photochemical Smog and Acid Rain. For instance, Photochemical Smog remains in the air while Acid Rain effects the rain and other water sources. Good job Larry.
