Toxic air pollution here and there
After weeks of spraying pesticides, then burning the logged plantations, the smoke lingered in a smoulderscape that left soot on all objects and ln lungs. Now the rain washes the cocktail of herbicides together with the ultrafine particle smoke into the surrounding soil and waterways. Negative externalities caused by the NSW government's Forestry Corporation. >>

Pulverising oil wells into our atmosphere"Reports are emerging of black rain falling over parts of Iran in the hours after US-Israeli airstrikes on oil depots on the weekend, with some outlets describing it as “acid rain”. Iranian residents have reported headaches, difficulty breathing, and oil-contaminated rain settling on buildings and cars."
"This rain would include acids but also likely a host of other pollutants that are harmful to humans and the environment in the short and long term.This black rain indicates toxic pollutants such as hydrocarbons, ultrafine particles known as PM2.5, and carcinogenic compounds called polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) have made their way into the rain. When ultrafine particles (PM2.5) are inhaled, they can get into your bloodstream. This has been linked to a range of health impacts including cancers, neurological conditions (such as cognitive impairment), and various cardiovascular conditions." >>
