Question

In what ways can we reduce acid rains?

• A. Reduce the use of coal and petroleum products.
• B. Increase the felling of trees.
• C. Allow plants to release unfiltered chemical by products.
• D. Increase the use of CFCs.

Answer 1

The correct option is A Reduce the use of coal and petroleum products.

Acid rains are caused by polluting gases like sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxide, which are released into the atmosphere and come down as acids along with rainfall. These gases are released by burning fossil fuels like coal and petroleum. We can reduce acid rains by reducing the use of coal and petroleum products, reduce deforestation by planting trees and relying on renewable sources of energy.
