Ozone’s road to recovery

This is regarding the cover article “Ozone’s road to recovery” by Benazir Raz (YW, September 16). I found this article very informative and it truly serves the purpose of creating awareness regarding the importance of the ozone layer on World Ozone Day.

As a young student, I have gained knowledge from the tips given on how to make the ozone layer stronger and I plan to spread the knowledge among my peers to play our role in forming a better world.

The cover article “Ozone’s road to recovery” by Benazir Raz was a wonderful piece of information as it highlighted the importance of the ozone layer. The ozone layer, like a shield, protects us from the harmful rays of the sun. But, because of human actions, it’s gotten damaged over the years.

The damage leads to problems like global warming and higher sea levels. On a brighter note, there are now more products being made that are ozone-friendly and don’t cause it harm.

Where there is a will, there is a way

This is regarding the story “Where there is a will, there is a way” by Humna Faisal (YW, September 16). The story focuses on willpower, which plays a crucial role in every aspect of our lives. It is our potential that turns the impossible into a possible one. Our willpower is the catalyst for our success.

One in a hundred

This is regarding the story “One in a hundred” by Eshal Khurshid (YW, September 9). The story addressed the unique abilities of children who may face physical challenges, but possess exceptional talents.

It is important that we refrain from teasing or belittling children with health issues. We should instead provide them with support and encouragement to nurture and enhance their talents.
