The environment is effected in many different ways by acid rain, mostly in negative ways.

In lakes, it harms the animal life and fish living around the area. Acid rain reduces the nutrients like calcium in the water which will hurt the fish and wild life around it.

In the forest, the tree's natural defenses and the nutrient of the soil are weaken resulting in it becoming vulnerable to diseases and pests. It also releases nitrate and some forests can not hold that much nitrogen and results in the soil loosing calcium.

In the ocean, it can cause an unwanted growth of algae. This is caused from the excess nitrogen which causes eutrophication or over nourishment.

The precursors, or chemical forerunners, of acid rain formation result from both natural sources, such as volcanoes and decaying vegetation, and man-made sources, primarily emissions of sulfur dioxide (SO2) and nitrogen oxides (NOx) resulting from fossil fuel combustion.

"Acid rain" is a broad term referring to a mixture of wet and dry deposition (deposited material) from the atmosphere containing higher than normal amounts of nitric and sulfuric acids.
