  Global Warming:
Global warming is the increase in the average temperature of the earth’s
atmosphere. It is caused by the rise in carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere,
which leads to an increase in temperature. Global warming has been accelerated
due to mass deforestation activities by man. Plants use carbon dioxide to prepare
their food and release oxygen as a by-product. So, if we have enough plants, they
will absorb the excess carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and decrease the rate
of global warming to some extent. Planting more trees can reduce the carbon
dioxide levels in the atmosphere and will result in a decrease in global warming..

 Wonders of Science :
Science has come like blessings in our life. There are lots of wonderful inventions that have
made human life easy and simple. First of all the computer is the biggest invention that has

Story:
 The wise man:
A wise man used to give advice to anyone who approached him. Over the years, he noticed
that people had been complaining about the same problems to him. One day, he told a
joke, which made everyone laugh out loud.
He told them the same joke after a few minutes, and only a few of them smiled.
The third time he told the same joke, no one laughed.
He smiled and said, “You can’t laugh at the same joke over and over. So why are you
always crying about the same problem?”
Moral of the story:
Worrying will not solve your problems, it will waste of your time and energy.

Letter::
 Write a letter to the Mayor of your city requesting him for a children’ park
in your locality.
There is no children’s park in our locality. The children have to play on the road which is
very dangerous. If they play in the street, they are hindered off and on in their play by the
passersby. Moreover, housewives take it ill if their ball falls in the compound of any house.
 It is, therefore, requested that a Municipal Park should be set up in our locality for
children. There are a number of plots lying vacant in this locality. A suitable one may be
selected for the purpose.
