Acid rain is rain or any other form of precipitation that is unusually acidic. It can have harmful effects on plants, aquatic animals, and infrastructure through the process of wet deposition. Acid rain is caused by emissions of compounds of ammonium, carbon, nitrogen, and sulfur which react with the water molecules in the atmosphere to produce acids. Governments have made efforts since the 1970s to reduce the production of sulfuric oxides into the Earth's atmosphere with positive results Since the Industrial Revolution, emissions of sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides to the atmosphere have increased.[2][3] In 1852, Robert Angus Smith was the first to show the relationship between acid rain and atmospheric pollution in Manchester, England.[4] Though acidic rain was discovered in 1852, it was not until the late 1960s that scientists began widely observing and studying the phenomenon.

Maria Stuart Stefan Zweig Sotimaa 1542 1548 Maria Stuart sündis 9. detsembril, 1542. aastal. Ta isa on kurb, et tema ainus pärija pole mitte poeg, vaid tütar. Ta näeb selles vaid õnnetust ja ütleb oma viimased sõnad: "Ühe naise kaudu on kroon meile tulnud, ühe naisega kaob ta taas." Masendunud ja valitsemisest väsinud James V sureb mõni päev hiljem. Maria Stuart, olles vaevalt kuue aastane, pärib Sotimaa kuningriigi. Sotimaa lordid ja parunid polnud ustavad oma valitsejale. Nad ihkavad võimu ja raha, ning see vaesuses vaevlev riik polnud midagi muud kui võõraste võimude alaline verine mängukann. See, kes sõdis kuninga vastu ja protestantismi eest, sai oma palga Londonist, katoliikluse ja Stuartite eest, - vastavalt Pariisist, Madridist või Roomast; ikka oli prantslaste ja inglaste vaheline viimane otsustus alles küpsemataja seetõ...
Lapsepõlv ja The Jackson 5 (19581975) Jacksoni lapsepõlvekodu Indianas Garys. Maja ees on lilled, mis Jacksoni austajad tõid pärast tema surma. Michael Jackson sündis 29. augustil 1958 seitsmenda lapsena üheksalapselises afroameerika töölisperekonnas, kes elas väikeses kolmetoalises majas Chicago linnastu Gary linnas. Linn oli tollal terasetootmise keskus. Tema ema Katherine Esther Scruse oli koduperenaine ja tõsimeelne Jehoova tunnistaja ning isa Joseph Walter Jackson töötas terasetehases kraanajuhina. 1950ndate keskel püüdis Jacksoni isa alustada muusikukarjääri, kuid see ei õnnestunud. Jacksonil oli kolm õde: Rebbie, La Toya ja Janet, ning viis venda: Jackie,Tito, Jermaine, Marlon ja Randy. Kuues vend Brandon suri imikuna. Jacksoni isa Joseph avastas oma kolme vanima poja Jackie, Tito ja Jermaine'i muusikaande. Tema abiga loodi ansambel The Jackson Brothers, millest sai hiljem The Jackson 5 ning veel hiljem The Jacksons. Joseph oli ...
1. Ancient Britain: the Celtic tribes. 2000 years ago there was an Iron Age Celtic culture throughout the Br Isles. It seems that the Celts, who had been arriving from Europe from the 8th cent BC onward, intermingled with the peoples who were already there. The Celts were extremely talented people, creative and artistic. More than 1 Celtic tribe invaded Br. The descendants of ancient Celts live in Wales, Scotland, Cornwall and Ireland. They lived in primitive society. Druids priests, more powerful than chiefs. Acted like prophets. 2. Stonehenge From prehistoric period. Was built on Salisbury plain between 2500 and 1500 bc. One of the most famous and mysterious archaeological sites in the world. One of the mysteries is how it was built at all with the technology of the time. Another is its purpose. It appears to function as a kind on astronomical clock and we know it was used by the Druids for ceremonies marking the passing ...
