How could acid rain affect food supplies?
Acid rain can cause plants to die. As a large-area effect, acid rain has the potential to seriously decrease food production.
Because most (all?) of the water required to grow crops comes from rain (rain also fills the rivers and lakes), its acidification would affect all food crops as well as other natural plants.
Due to the normal time and seasons for growing food crops, eliminating even one or two seasons of products would result in severe famine.

Acid rain can affect food supplies by leaching essential nutrients from the soil, damaging crops, reducing agricultural productivity, and contaminating water sources used for irrigation. Additionally, acid rain can disrupt the pH balance of aquatic ecosystems, harming fish populations and reducing the availability of seafood. Overall, these effects can lead to food shortages and economic losses in affected regions.

When evaluating a one-sided limit, you need to be careful when a quantity is approaching zero since its sign is different depending on which way it is approaching zero from. Let us look at some examples.
