What ever happened to "Acid Rain?" Why don't we hear about acid rain anymore?
Did we wipe out acid rain like we wiped out Polio? 🤔

@HoraceGreenley Seems there is acid rain denial among some folks who don't live in the areas where forests were decimated by acid rain. I didn't know acid rain denial was such a big thing!
Environmental regulations reduced SO2 which reduced sulfuric acid in rain. What a difference 30 years made!
Note that rising pH means falling acidity. Every increase of 1 in pH equates to a reduction by a factor of 10 in acid concentration. pH of 7 is neutral.
