Acid rain policy changes yield slow but real ecological results

Science Now “Is Acid Rain a Thing of the Past?

It is wonderful that this policy is yielding results, but a bit scary how slowly recovery takes. Obviously climate change is a very different problem, but seeing how this “success story” has come with such time lags really makes me scared of how long we will need to wait for recovery even if we enact real climate change policy.
