Effect of Acid Rain on Human Living Environment and Human Self

Abstract

There have been countless scientists studying acid rain from the 1970s to the present, and of course, there have been reviews and studies of this kind, but these studies are not enough. The influence of acid rain on human beings, as well as the environment, is discussed in this paper. First, the production of acid rain is caused by a mix of human activities, as well as natural processes. Human activities like burning fossil fuels, industrial emissions, and transportation release pollutants such as sulfuric and nitric acid, as well as acid rain, are produced when sulfur dioxide (SO2) and nitrogen oxides (NOx) in the atmosphere combine with water vapor and oxygen. Acid rain creates a large bad effect to the ecosystem. It harms water bodies, soils, vegetation, and biodiversity. In addition, acid rain poses a threat to human health. Pollutants in acid rain can irritate the respiratory system and cause respiratory diseases. To combat the problem of acid rain, both individual and government efforts are critical. In the future, people need to develop technology and do more research to solve acid rain. The meaning of the essay is to let more people know about acid rain, how acid rain affect the world, and what human can do to solve acid rain.
