Acid Earth: The Global Threat of Acid Pollution Tapa blanda - 2013 - 2nd Edición

Paperback / softback. New. Acid rain was one of the major environmental issues of the 1980s. But while industrialized countries have taken measures to reduce the emissions that lead to acidification, the problems have not gone away.
