Question

1) The problem The problem starts here. Cars burn petrol, factories and power stations burn coal and emit toxic fumes. So, the air that we breathe becomes polluted. 2) Air pollution acid rain This pollution is gathered in clouds and with the oxygen and water in the atmosphere it becomes acid. The winds carry the polluted clouds across long distances, far 1) away. When it rains, this pollution lands on trees, houses, buildings, cars, clothes, everywhere!!! This is called acid rain, 2) but there is actually 'acid fog', 'snow' and 'sleet' in the same way! 3) Water and soil pollution When acid rain falls into lakes, streams, rivers and seas, they become toxic. This is water pollution and it harms, kills or wipes out fish and plant species. When acid rain flows through the soil, it poisons trees and plants. Acid rain 3) also causes serious damage to important buildings and objects. 4) Good news The good news is that governments have been trying to reduce the air pollution that causes acid rain. 4) Some industries have been using new technologies for some time to help make factory smoke less harmful to the environment. But we need to do more! We can help reduce the amount of acid rain by using 5) our cars less or by using solar power to heat our homes. сократи до (8-10)пред срочно​

Answer 1

The problem starts here. Cars burn gas, factories and power plants burn coal and emit toxic fumes. Thus, the air we breathe becomes polluted.

Also, the air is polluted by acid rain. When it rains, this pollution hits trees, houses, buildings, cars, clothes, everywhere!

Pollution of water and soil. When acid rain falls into lakes, streams, rivers and seas, they become toxic. Acid rain poisons trees and plants, causing damage to buildings and objects.

The good news is that governments are trying to reduce air pollution that causes acid rain. Some industries have long used new technologies to make factory smoke less harmful to the environment. But we need to do more!
