A) release of water that has been heated by industrial processes directly into waterways.

Rain with a lower than normal pH is called acid rain. Acid rain is a type of rain that has a higher concentration of acidic pollutants, such as sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides, dissolved in it. These pollutants are released into the air primarily through the burning of fossil fuels, industrial activities, and vehicle emissions. When these pollutants mix with moisture in the atmosphere, they form sulfuric acid and nitric acid, which then falls to the Earth as acid rain.
