=__Equation That Shows Production:__= =__Type of Reaction:__= =__Affects/Results of Pollution:__=
 * ==Sulfur Dioxide Reacts with Oxygen gas to make Sulfur Trioxide (SO2 + O2 ---> SO3) Sulfur Trioxide can then react with Water to make Sulfuric Acid (SO3 + H2O ---> H2SO4).==
 * ==The two above equations are both synthesis reaction. I know this because two different elements react to make one new compound.==
 * ==Smog and acid rain is a pressing environmental problem. The result of smog is poor air quality and the results of acid rains are damaged crops, forests, wildlife population, and can cause respiratory illnesses in humans.==

== =__Considered most important:__=
 * ==This is a picture of a factory releases acidic gases making smog and polluting our environment.[[image:http://myecoproject.org/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/acid_rain.gif width="687" height="349"]]==
 * ==﻿This picture explains how acid rains are formed. Acidic gases that are released from factories are dissolved into rainwater to create acid rain. The acid rain then falls upon our planet killing plant life, polluting water supplies, and eroding man made structures.==
 * ==It damages food production and causes serious illnesses to humans and is part of our failing environment. If we don't stop pollution our environment will keep getting worse. Our planet is the only planet that we know to harbour life. If we lose our planet to pollution we have no where else to go.==
