Module 3 Discussion - Acid Rain

Explore the effects of acid rain pre and post the 1990 Clean Air Act. Pair up and choose one of the topics listed below. One person should research and report on the damage that was being observed due to acid rain prior to 1990, while the other person researches and reports on what the situation is today and what has been done to fix the problem (other than the clean air act). Everyone should include data (statistics) and cite their information sources in their post. You should compare your information with each other before posting to make sure the posts are consistant and not contradictory. The pair of posts should appear under one thread on the Module 3 discussion board and are due by noon on Friday, July 18. Individually, each person is responsible for responding to two other threads by noon on Tuesday, July 22.
