45. CNN - Recovery Begins From Acid Rain Damage - October 18, 1999
    http://www.cnn.com/NATURE/9910/18/acid.rain.enn/index.html
    
    Extractions: Web posted at: 12:27 p.m. EDT (1627 GMT) Lakes and streams in North America and Europe are beginning to recover from the damage inflicted by acid rain, scientists report. The recovery is being attributed to the passage and enforcement of environmental regulations and international agreements that reduce the emissions that produce acid rain. Emissions from burning fossil fuels steadily increased from the beginning of the Industrial Revolution in the 18th century until the 1970s. The sulfur and nitrates released into the atmosphere eventually return to the Earth as acid rain. This study provides the first conclusive evidence that international and regional agreements designed to reduce the emissions that cause acid rain, beginning with the United Nations' First Sulphur Protocol in 1985, are working. Sulfur dioxide concentrations in north/central Europe air decreased by 63 percent between 1985 and 1996, according to the report. Sulfur dioxide is converted in the atmosphere to sulfuric acid, the main ingredient that produces acid rain. The United States and Canada experienced a 28 percent decline in the same emissions between 1980 and 1995. In Great Britain, emissions of sulfur also decreased by 32 percent between 1979 and 1993.

    Extractions: Acid rain dissolves forest nutrients much faster than previously believed, posing a threat to future forest productivity, according to a study conducted by researchers from three universities in the southeastern United States. The study shows that acid rain accelerated the nutrient-robbing acidification of forest soils by 38 percent at the Calhoun Experimental Forest in South Carolina, where soil data was collected over the past 30 years. "We found a dramatic increase in acidity and a steady depletion of nutrients over this 30-year period," said Daniel Markewitz, a soil scientist in the University of Georgia's Warnell School of Forest Resources.

    Extractions: Absolutely pure water is neutral - neither acid nor base. But rainwater is not absolutely pure. Some gases in the atmosphere dissolve in raindrops as they fall to the ground. Under normal conditions, rain is only slightly acidic. But chemical pollutants in the air - namely, sulfur and nitrogen - dissolve in rain to make it even more acidic. What causes acid rain? Acid rain is caused by two main pollutants in the air - sulfur dioxide and nitrogen dioxide. In the United States each year, more than 30 million tons of sulfur and nitrogen compounds are discharged into the air. But where are these dangerous gases coming from? Sulfur dioxide can come from natural sources, like volcanoes, but much of this gas is released into the atmosphere by factories that burn fossil fuels, such as coal and oil. Nitrogen dioxide comes from automobile exhaust and emissions from power stations.

    http://cnn.com/2001/TECH/science/03/26/acid.rain.report/index.html
    
    Extractions: WOODSTOCK, New Hampshire (CNN) A new study on acid rain concludes that, while some affected areas have seen improvement, the impact of emissions may be much more complicated than previously understood. The study, led by Charles Driscoll of Syracuse University, found that despite major progress in decreasing U.S. emissions of acid rain-producing chemicals, 40 percent of the lakes and streams in New England and upstate New York continue to occasionally post acidity levels that harm plant and animal life. Fifteen percent of those waterways still have chronically high acid levels. MESSAGE BOARD Environmental issues

    http://users.rcn.com/jkimball.ma.ultranet/BiologyPages/A/AcidRain.html
    
    Extractions: Acid Rain Is rain more acid than normal. Natural rain and snow is slightly acidic ( pH 5.6) because of the carbon dioxide (CO ) dissolved in it. But over recent decades, rain in North America and Europe downwind of industrial areas has had a pH close to 4.5 and sometimes as low as 2.1 (equivalent to lemon juice). The evidence is very strong that most of this acidity is caused by sulfur dioxide (SO ) released from the smokestacks of coal-burning power plants and other industrial sources. The sulfur dioxide is converted into sulfuric acid (H SO ). This may be carried to the ground in rain or snow, but often particles containing sulfuric acid settle out of dry air. So the problem of acid rain is really one of acid deposition in dry weather as well as wet. Nitrogen oxides ("NO x "), which are converted into nitric acid, also contribute to acid deposition. Automobile exhaust accounts for 50% or more of the nitrogen oxides in polluted air. View Acid rain has been held responsible for damaging buildings and statues made of limestone (true - view an example ), damaging aquatic life in lakes (true), causing a decline in the vigor of U.S. and European forests (may be partially responsible), and harming human health (doubtful).

57. CNN.com - New York Passes Nation's Toughest Acid Rain Rules - Mar. 27, 2003

    Extractions: The Web CNN.com Home Page World U.S. Weather ... Special Reports SERVICES Video E-Mail Services CNNtoGO SEARCH Web CNN.com Story Tools ALBANY, New York (AP) The state on Wednesday limited smokestack emissions in what environmentalists say will be the nation's toughest regulations on pollutants that cause acid rain. The state Environmental Board ordered reductions in sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxide to curb acid rain, as well as help people with asthma and other respiratory ailments, said state Environmental Conservation Commissioner Erin Crotty. "They are the toughest acid rain regulations in the country," Crotty said. "Hopefully New York will become a model." Environmentalists say that in the Adirondacks alone, acid rain has created more than 500 "dead" lakes and ponds with little plant or animal life. But State Business Council spokesman Matthew Maguire said the regulations will not significantly reduce acid rain because most emissions in New York's air come from Midwestern plants. He said it will increase customers' energy bills while discouraging energy companies from doing business in New York. "This is a state that is already deeply troubled by energy issues. Upon this fire we are ladling gasoline," Maguire said.
