When fossil fuel was burn then nitrogen oxide and sulphur oxide is produced and they reacts with tiny droplets of water in clouds to form sulphuric acid and nitric acid.The Rain from this clouds then fall as very weak acids which is known as acid rain.

When we burn fuels, a lot of sulphur is released and the increase of sulphur in atmosphere is responsible for acid rain.

The effect of burning fuels on the environment is as follows :

When we burnt fuels , the gases like - carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide are released.

Because of carbon dioxide , the global warming will increase.

While because of carbon monoxide one can be a sick of asthma.

It pollutes the environment.

It may cause acid rain.
