Video games and television are popular means of entertainment among children during their leisure time. But research has shown that gaming takes precedence over other interests and daily activities which ultimately leads to deteriorating effects on a child’s psychological health. In my opinion, a developing brain of a child is adversely affected by video games and television.

Better productivity and large profits are the watchwords of employers everywhere. To achieve this some ascertain that their employees get better amenities and advanced equipment, while others believe in creating an environment where each employee is valued and honored equally, whatever his position in the company. In my opinion, equal and respectful treatment towards each employee is conducive to better productivity.
Restricting air travel is the only way to prevent air pollution?
Do you agree?
keywords : air travel, air pollution, restriction, prevention
Air pollution is the prime reason for global warming. Aircraft (plural of aircraft ) are responsible for an increasing proportion of air pollutant emissions, both at local and global level. In my opinion, restricting air travel might help to reduce air pollution to some extent, but it is not the only solution to keep air pollution in check.
