Acid rain is a phenomenon that occurs in nature due to pollution. It is simply more acidic
precipitation than normal. With the development of technology, pollution levels have
increased drastically and acid rain has become more common and frequent. It is harmful
to nature as well as human constructions and causes health issues as well.
We need to identify the causes of acid rain to reduce its effect on nature and living beings. Hence
this course is designed to give a basic idea of acid rain to those who are interested in learning.

Hi there!
I am Chamalie Vidanaarachchi, a chemistry-based professional and an astronomy enthusiast
who has a passion for science. Being a chemist, I love to relate chemistry in every wing
of science and in astronomy for sure! Studying natural phenomena is one of my favorite
hobbies.
I work with the Institute of Astronomy, Sri Lanka as a tutor for more than one-and-half years and
have experience teaching astronomy online. I enjoy teaching science because it makes me
feel that I made the path for a future scientist.
I believe that Science must learn naturally without forcing a student. Because Science is a
subject that is always in our surrounding and nothing to be fear about. If you allow your child
to go through science from the very beginning of life nobody can stop them from being a well-
known Scientist.
STEM is the key to innovative thinking. The world needs thinkers, not dreamers.
