My research on acid rain.
It appears as if my plants with orange juice, lemonade, and tropical punch aren't doing so well and since they all have citrus acid in them, I decided to do some research on acid rain. What acid rain actually does is lower the pH of the lakes and rivers and destroys high elevated trees. It also seems that lemon juice and orange juice are more acidic than acid rain itself which is pretty shocking. Black Coffee has the same pH as normal rain, while milk is on the basic side.

Today, Instant Coffee is still in the lead and the juices are still in last place. What is really cool that I found out today is that I have people from Australia and Germany coming to this website even though this is from the U.S.A. So hello to all the Australian and German people who are reading this! Anyway, here are the results!
