Effects of Acid Rain on Materials

Acid rain and the dry deposition of acidic particles contribute to the corrosion of metals (such as bronze) and the deterioration of paint and stone (such as marble and limestone). These effects seriously reduce the value to society of buildings, bridges, cultural objects (such as statues, monuments, and tombstones), and cars.

Effects of Acid Rain on Visibility

Sulfates and nitrates that form in the atmosphere from sulfur dioxide (SO ₂) and nitrogen oxides (NO x) emissions contribute to visibility impairment, meaning we can't see as far or as clearly through the air.

Eastern United States

Sulfate particles account for 50 to 70 percent of the visibility reduction in the eastern part of the United States, affecting our enjoyment of national parks, such as the Shenandoah and the Great Smoky Mountains.

Through the Acid Rain Program, SO ₂ reductions will be completed to improve visual range at national parks located in the eastern United States. Based on a study of the value national park visitors place on visibility, these reductions are expected to be worth over a billion dollars annually by the year 2010.

Western United States

In the western part of the United States, nitrates and carbon also play roles, but sulfates have been implicated as an important source of visibility impairment in many of the Colorado River Plateau national parks, including the Grand Canyon, Canyonlands, and Bryce Canyon.

Effects of Acid Rain on Human Health

Acid rain looks, feels, and tastes just like clean rain. The harm to people from acid rain is not direct. Walking in acid rain, or even swimming in an acid lake, is no more dangerous than walking or swimming in clean water. However, the pollutants that cause acid rain also damage human health.

Effects of Sulfur Dioxide (SO₂): These gases interact in the atmosphere to form fine sulfate and nitrate particles that can be transported long distances by winds and inhaled deep into people's lungs. Fine particles can also penetrate indoors. Many scientific studies have identified a relationship between elevated levels of fine particles and increased illness and premature death from heart and lung disorders, such as asthma and bronchitis.

Effects of Nitrogen Oxide (NOx): Decrease in nitrogen oxide emissions are also expected to have a beneficial impact on human health by reducing the nitrogen oxides available to react with volatile organic compounds and form ozone. Ozone impacts on human health include a number of morbidity and mortality risks associated with lung inflammation, including asthma and emphysema.

i think that we should reduce the use of plastic waste being thrown in natural habitats like oceans,forests,etc.

# data[].attributes.body
the fire can cause haze and animals living in the environment can be seriously injured or even die.

# data[].attributes.body
I think we should stop using plastic bags and reduce, reuse and recycle

# data[].attributes.body
It cause the environment decreases tree and animal living in the forest got affected:((((

# data[].attributes.body
I think we should stop polluting the ocean as marine animals will mistake litter as food and after eating the litter, they would die.

# data[].attributes.body
the fire can engulf the forest making the animals to go look for new habitats and the tree will be burn up to dust and the animal near the fire might not even make it out alive.

The pollutants in the acid rain can not only damage human health but can also weaken trees by damaging their leaves, limiting the amount of nutrients around them and exposing the trees to toxic chemicals that are slowly released from the soil. The acid can disrupt the delicate balance of the aquatic ecosystems resulting in killing the organisms

The haze of the flames will affect the oxygen of living things making them have less oxygen or maybe extremely bad air

I think we should use less plastic bags for groceries and use a tote bag or a recycled bag to save earth.

the animals living on the tree would have no home due to the forest fire. They could even die because of the smoke they are breathing in during the fire.

# data[].attributes.body
There won’t be any homes for the animals because of deforestation destroying animals home

# data[].attributes.body
I think we should bring our reusable bag when buying something instead of super market plastic bags as it is not environmental friendly

# data[].attributes.body
Animals won’t survive because they have lost their habitat and is breathing air that they should not be breathing 😮‍💨 some will still be able to migrate
