The Impact of Acid Rain

The video discusses acid rain, a type of precipitation with high acidity due to sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxide emissions. These emissions mainly result from human activities like burning fossil fuels. Acid rain can occur as wet or dry deposition, affecting soil, water, plants, and buildings. It poses risks to ecosystems, aquatic life, and human health. Solutions include Flue Gas Desulfurization and international treaties to reduce emissions.
