Acid rain is a rain or any other form of precipitation that is unusually acidic, meaning that it possesses elevated levels of hydrogen ions (low pH). It can have harmful effects on plants, aquatic animals and infrastructure. Acid rain is caused by emissions of sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxide, which react with the water molecules in the atmosphere to produce acids. Governments have made efforts since the 1970s to reduce the release of sulfur dioxide into the atmosphere with positive results. Nitrogen oxides can also be produced naturally by lightningstrikes and sulfur dioxide is produced by volcanic eruptions. The chemicals in acid rain can cause paint to peel, corrosion of steel structures such as bridges, and erosion of stone statues.

The Berlin Wall (German: Berliner Mauer) was a barrier that divided Berlin from 1961 to 1989, constructed by the German Democratic Republic (GDR, East Germany) starting on 13 August 1961, that completely cut off (by land) West Berlin from surrounding East Germany and from East Berlin until it was opened in November 1989. The Berlin Wall was officially referred to as the "Anti-Fascist Protection Rampart" (German: Antifaschistischer Schutzwall) by GDR authorities, implying that the NATO countries and West Germany in particular were "fascists."The West Berlin city government sometimes referred to it as the "Wall of Shame"—a term coined by mayor Willy Brandt—while condemning the Wall's restriction on freedom of movement. Along with the separate and much longer Inner German border (IGB), which demarcated the border between East and West Germany, it came to symbolize the "Iron Curtain" that separated Western Europe and the Eastern Bloc during the Cold War.
War is the business of armed conflict, characterized by extreme collective aggression, destruction and high mortality. Given that the goods and services that are being traded in this business are primarily death and destruction, we can safely deduce that war is, indeed, the most serious and the dirtiest of all businesses. And war, like all the other types of businesses, requires marketing. It is the marketing of war that we call Propaganda…

Britannia - It's Up to You! World War II propaganda poster by the British painter and commercial poster artist, Tom Purvis (12 June 1888 – 27 August 1959).
Caspar David Friedrich (5 September 1774 – 7 May 1840) was a 19th-century German Romantic landscape painter, generally considered the most important German artist of his generation. Wanderer above the Sea of Fog (1818) is a well known masterpiece of his, suggesting at once mastery over a nature and the insignificance of the individual within it.
The Monk by the Sea was exhibited in its current form at the Berlin Academy in October 1810, to much controversy and criticism:
- "In its monotony and boundlessness" wrote Kleist, "it has no foreground except the frame, when viewing it, it is as if one's eyelids had been cut away."
What is most striking in this painting is the abject loneliness and a lack of any consolation in the horizon.
Also known as "The Wreck of Hope" is perhaps a reflection of Friedrich's most tragic experience at the Aged 13, when his younger brother, Johann Christoffer, rescued him from drowning in the icy water, causing Christoffer himself to fall into the frozen lake and perish instead.
