When I was young I would hear how acid rain was destroying the Black Forest. Time I should update my knowledge I think.

I haven't heard anything about acid rain for a long time. Emissions of NO2 and SO2 are the main causes of unusually high acidity of rainwater. All rainwater is acidic because of CO2 in the air. It causes erosion of rock which exposes calcite minerals to the air and helps remove CO2 from the air. Acid rain can be desirable when atmospheric C02 is on the rise. :)
