acid rain has damaged parts of scandinavian forest.suggest ways to reverse it's impact.
Answers
In the 1970s and ’80s, forested areas in central Europe, southern Scandinavia, and eastern North America showed alarming signs of forest dieback and tree mortality. A 1993 survey in 27 European countries revealed air pollution damage or mortality in 23 percent of the 100,000 trees surveyed. It is likely that the dieback was the result of many factors, including acid deposition (e.g., soil acidification and loss of buffering capacity, mobilization of toxic aluminum, direct effects of acid on foliage), exposure to ground-level ozone, possible excess fertilization from the deposition of nitrogen compounds (such as nitrates, ammonium, and ammonia compounds), and general stress caused by a combination of these factors. Once a tree is in a weakened condition, it is more likely to succumb to other environmental stressors such as drought, insect infestation, and infection by pathogens. The areas of forest dieback were often found to be associated with regions with low buffering capacity where damage to aquatic ecosystems due to acid deposition was also occurring.
A great way to reduce acid rain is to produce energy without using fossil fuels. Instead, people can use renewable energy sources, such as solar and wind power. Renewable energy sources help reduce acid rain because they produce much less pollution.
Answer:
we have to stop use of coal, petroleum, national gas. we have to plant more tree's. we have to use solar energy.
