Acid rain is the direct result of acid released by burning fossil fuels. Please select the best answer from the choices provided.

A. True

Acid rain is primarily caused by the release of sulfur dioxide (SO2) and nitrogen oxides (NOx) into the atmosphere from burning fossil fuels. When these substances react with water vapor, they form sulfuric and nitric acids, which can fall to the ground as acid rain. This process can harm ecosystems, buildings, and water sources.
