[Thematic Report] [Chemical Substance]

by Jaewon Chang | 19-04-2020 21:24 recommendations 0

You might have encountered the term "acid rain" in your chemistry class, or maybe you never heard about it. In this article, I will discuss the negative consequences of acid rain to our environment.

To begin, I want to introduce the concept of acid rain. In essence, sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides begin to ascend high in the sky. They can interact with elements such as oxygen and water, forming acid pollutants as a result.

One of the main problems associated with acid rain can be traced to forests. When these acidic products come in contact with the soil, they deprive essential nutrients from the soil (such as calcium). In doing so, they hinder the growth of trees. Furthermore, aluminum may be scattered in the soil when acid rain comes in contact with the surface, again making it harder for trees to consume water. These problems are encountered especially in higher elevations, where acidic clouds may come in direct contact with the trees. Interaction between the clouds and leaves make the tree more vulnerable to become infected.

A simple solution for acid rain would be to promote sustainable energy sources (renewable), to reduce the amount of pollution that is being produced in our environment.

    Hi Jaewon Chang, this is a mentor, Sang Su Lee.

    The impact of Acid rain problem is not relieving, but soaring. I heard that in some countries, rain pollution is so severe. I could learn that acid rain deprives soil of nutrients so that trees and plants cannot grow properly by reading your article. We must fight to stop acid rain because trees are significant in our lives too.

    Thank you for your report!

    Hello Jaewon Chang, this is mentor Taehyun!

    Thank you for the report about the acid rain. Acid rain is a serious problem for both humans and the environment. Because of the acid rain, people can get hair loss and other diseases. The environment can be affected, soil's pH becomes low, and that causes the death of the plant which living in that soil. Also, other serious problems related to acid rain. So, as you've said we have to use renewable energy to solve that problem!

    Thank you for the report!

    Green cheers!
