  This series aims to take a positive look at the world's major environmental problems and explain the threats facing the planet and the international efforts being taken to preserve it. The series is based on an earlier one entitled Conserving Our World . Each book has been shortened and simplified with the intention of appealing to primary school children and meeting the special needs of secondary school children with reading difficulties. The texts have been checked by a language consultant. This book sets out to show how, in some parts of the world, rainwater is killing whole forests and making lakes so acid that fish cannot live in them. It describes how acid rain is caused and how it affects lakes, forests, wildlife, buildings and even people.
