Extract

The acid rain many areas is becoming a major hazard.
Gasses released from factories combine with the moisture and eventually fall back to earth, sometimes 1000 times more acidic than natural rain.
This is causing significant problems within local lakes, rivers and streams. Although acid rain is not concentrated enough to burn through human skin, it kills many trees and other wildlife.
