This is the U. S. Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) acid rain portal. It consists of links to information on the causes and effects of acid rain, how it is measured, and some suggestions for ways to reduce its occurrence. There are also links to information for users about the problem in their areas, and to a selection of educational resources, including activities and science experiments, for students in all grades. Another set of links provides access to information on state and national data and statistics, acid rain legislation, and U.S. and international initiatives.
