Acid rain does not directly burn our skin, but it is harmful to health. It increases air pollution and can cause breathing problems like asthma, coughing, throat irritation, and chest pain. It also affects lungs more in children and elderly people. Acid rain can contaminate drinking water and food, which may cause long-term health issues.


Acid rain also damages buildings and monuments. It reacts with materials like marble, limestone, cement, and metals, slowly weakening them. Famous monuments lose their shine and strength over time. Paint peels off, iron rusts faster, and walls develop cracks. Overall, acid rain reduces the life of buildings and historical structures.
