Projects to work on -- Acid rain:
It isn't raining as much as it should; but it still pours. We think it'll be quite exciting for you to test if the rains in your area are acidic or otherwise. You don't need to be a scientist or have one to do it for you every time. We have here a very simple do-it-yourself way of testing rain water and enlightening your neighbourhood about it. It isn't difficult at all. So, get going.
