Back in the 1950s in Lincoln (England), factories belched out black smoke that hung permanently over the city. Stone buildings like churches had a covering of 2-5 cms of hard, black gunk. It was only after the Clean Air Act that Lincoln's buildings could be cleaned, and now there's no comparison between how they looked back then and how they look now. I don't know how people could have lived with that for so long; I'm told the smoke and blackened buildings gave the city a dark, depressing feel.

I grew up in London and remember the smogs. The smog was so thick you could literally not see your hand if you held it in front of your face. One time when I was 13 they let us out of school early because the smog was so bad. The driver of the bus I took to get home got lost. The conductor was walking in front of the bus with a torch to to guide the driver, but he ended up taking us up a driveway into a church yard, where he told us we have to all get off. Luckily I found my way home somehow passing people who looked like ghosts, trying to cover my mouth and nose with my pullover to filter the dirty sooty air.

When I was a kid in UK in the 1950's smogs were common. People died every year. We used to call them pea soupers. My mother frequently had to wash clothes several times, also the washing line would be coated in soot. You knew it was a bad one when you couldn't see your own outstretched hand (that isn't a joke). You could really taste the smoke in the air. At that time every house had one or more coal fires and Britain was still a major manufacturing centre, and of course every factory had it's chimney.

The problem here is that not all countries are democracies.

Only shows that there's a first time for everything. For centuries, millennia, people had little control of their environment, and remained blind and/or indifferent to the effects they did have. The world seemed much bigger than the areas they were poisoning, and the idea of `running out of world' hadn't occurred to anyone yet. Nuclear weapons were a hell of a wake-up call [only a few years before this happened, btw].

I know sulfuric acid sounds better, but SO2 plus H2O equals sulfurous acid, which is much weaker than sulfuric acid (H2SO4). Unless there was some kind of chemical reaction you guys didn't mention.
@caioporto92347 жыл бұрын
That is not the issue here. If it were something like a missing step in the reaction pathway, it would be ok, but in this case the details are important because this is one of the main process in which acid rain is formed and it's a subject in SAT related exams. What I mean is inaccuracy in college level information for the sake of brevity is ok, but this is basic stuff.
@LFTRnow6 жыл бұрын
There is of course both sulfurous and sulfuric acid that results from dumping SO2 into the air. SO2 becomes SO3 though oxidization, which may happen though any number of means. One of the more common is reaction with ozone in the atmosphere (ozone is not JUST in the "ozone layer", but found in various altitudes, and increases also with added pollution). The air also contains NOx (NO and NO2 mostly) which is also an oxidizer (and part of pollution). Stories now say acid rain is becoming worse, mostly due to NOx, not SO2 at the moment. Completing the cycle to sulfur*ic* acid, SO3 combines with water to form H2SO4, which is sulfuric acid. NO2 combines with water to form HNO3 or nitric acid. I don't think I'd call the college level information inaccurate, because sulfuric acid IS formed, however, it clearly glosses over the details which require some goggling to find out. I found this helpful: sites.google.com/site/acidrain1project/#SULFURIC

Fun story. Once I studied abroad in China, and one of the places the group stayed in was Beijing. For the first few days we were there, the sky was actually mostly blue and everything seemed fairly normal. Then one day, seemingly overnight, the sky turned brown and obviously smoggy. (When we went to visit a portion of the Great Wall up in the mountains, you could actually see the dome of smog blanketing the city.) We asked one of our Chinese instructors what was going on that the smog was so bad that day. She looked at us in genuine confusion and asked, "Oh is it bad today???" We thought the brown sky was weird, but it turned out that that was normal and we had just gotten lucky to actually see blue sky for a brief time.

It happened in the United States as well; in 1948, Donora, Pennsylvania, south east of Pittsburgh. For 5 days or so, around Halloween, a temperature inversion trapped industrial smoke, automobile exhaust and other pollutants in the air. It hung over the river valley and the town like a blanket. It was like night around the clock. Visibility was practically zero. It became quite serious. There was loss of life, especially the sick, the elderly and the very young. The steel mills kept on belching smoke in spite of the growing health crisis. It was said that the furnaces were too costly to shut down and then later restart once the inversion lifted. They finally relented, I believe, in the end and shut down when people started dying!! Look it up. It's a interesting story. Hank, you should produce a video on this, it would fit right in.

I remember when in lived in NYC during the 1960s, that by the day after it snowed the white snow would be covered with black stuff. As the days went by a black crust formed on the snow. Another thing was that all year long the windows were covered on the outside with dark gray sand, no matter how often you tried to clean them it came back before you knew it. Coal was used to heat apartment buildings back then. They would put a chute through a basement window and coal from the coal truck was loaded down the basement. When they burned it, the smoke would sometimes start out yellow, but then it always turned to black smoke that filled the sky.

I was born during that time, & my mother often told me about how when she was taken to hospital in labour, someone had to walk in front of the ambulance with a flaming torch so that they could see where they were going.

how did that affect your health? I'm a med student preparing a presentation on this, can you maybe explain a bit about how it was and what consequences it had? It'd be amazing to get information from someone who's experienced it

@@ValentiaTheLunatic I don't think it affected my health because in those days mothers were kept in hospital for at least a week to 10 days after giving birth. By the time we got out of the hospital the smog had cleared up.

It wasn't just that they were burning coal. It was the type of coal. Post-war, solid, cleaner coal was used for industry, while homeowners were sold a cheaper coal that was basically dirt with coal in it, which produced a lot more airborne filth when burned.
