AUDIENCE: Grades 9-12
The industrialization of North America and Europe, as well as the development of the automobile, has
produced a number of gasses that turn the clouds downwind from the factories into a corrosive acid.
These clouds can be carried by the wind for hundreds of miles as they produce acid rain and snow,
causing drastic changes in the forests, streams and lakes in their path. This video illustrates the way
acid rain has damaged trees and reduced populations of fish and other animals. It also details the
ways in which we can make significant reductions in acid rain.
