Acid rain damages and is very deadly to all of earths ecosystems. Following acid rain there is another issue occurring called acidification. Acidification is the lowing of soil pH due to acid precipitation and deposition. To conclude what this means is that every time acid rain occurs in Guyana the soil pH …show more content…
