Acid Rain
As the century past, the industrial society kept advancing. ... One
of the adverse effects of industrialization is acid deposition due to power
plant, fossil fuel and automobile emissions. Acid rain is the popular term but
the scientists prefer the term acid deposition. Acid rain can have adverse
effects on the environment by damaging forests or by lowering the pH of the
lakes and making the water too acidic for many aquatic plants and animals to
live.
The father of acid rain research is an Englishman named Charles Angus

causing metal to rust and dyed goods to fade. One source that causes acid rain
are fossil fuel.
