but we do have acid rain. Not to the same extent we did some 20 years ago but still, the reasons for the diminish is in part that Britain is less polluting now, and almost all cars here have catalytic cleaning. When the wind blows from Poland and other post communist countries we are in trouble, but they are slowly catching up

Every country that has a factory emmiting sulphur dioxide has acid rain,as the acid is not strong hunaes will not be anle to feel the damage but there will be damage,normally noticable after a long period.But the strongest acid rain is brought about during the first few rains.
The occurance of acid rain:
Factories emmit sulphur dioxide and as humidity rises,the sulphur dioxide is converted into sulphuric acid and decends upon the earth,in obviously diluted by the water.So the first few rains will be rich in sulphuric acid due to the build up of sulphur dioxide.

Because acid rain comes from pollution and apparently Sweden likes to take care of their environment.

Who told you there was no acid rain in Sweden? Do not lend them any money, you cannot trust this person!
Rain is water falling from clouds. The water went up there from all over this planet. So however clean you are in your own country, the bad toilet habits of other nations will pollute your rain!

Theres acid rain in Sweden, however its levels have dropped due to a global effort to decrease pollution to more manageable levels.

The arctic air gets the acid part of the rain to re-solidify before it gets that far north, and the nasty stuff in the rivers in Sweden doesn't evaporate until it gets much further south.

Weather travels from west to east, so I quess if there was a nuclear explosion in the Atlantic Ocean, Sweden would see
acid rain along with radiation clouds.
Can't see any volcanos in that area that would cause a problem.

Largely due in part because the Sweden focuses on eco-protecting their country; the lack of poisionous industry scattered across the land there.
