One primary source of pollutants like sulfur dioxide (SO2) that contribute to acid rain is the burning of fossil fuels (such as coal, oil, and natural gas) in power plants, industrial facilities, and vehicles. This combustion process releases sulfur dioxide into the atmosphere, where it can react with water vapor and other chemicals to form sulfuric acid.
