Acid Rain
"Acid rain is rain, snow or fog that is polluted by acid in the atmosphere and damages the environment. Two common air pollutants acidify rain: sulphur dioxide (SO2) and nitrogen oxide (NOX). When these substances are released into the atmosphere, they can be carried over long distances by prevailing winds and return to earth as acidic rain, snow, fog or dust.. This official Canada Environment site is my pick of the day for the depth of its coverage and simple yet effective design. Don’t miss the do-it-yourself experiments in the Kids’ Corner.<!--"

A Coastal Journey
"Coastal Journey is a diary of scientific discovery written by a young teen, as she explores the rocky shores of Washington state with her marine biologist father. She writes about the tides, the difficult living conditions they create, and five kinds of plants and animals that live in tide pools: algae, cnidarians, crustaceans, echinoderms, and mollusks. The diary is nicely illustrated with photographs and drawings, but lacks a table of contents."
