Engineers and National Seminar on “Indian Maritime
Sector – an Ocean of Opportunities” will be held on

all the Students from Engineering Colleges to
participate in this convention and grab the benefits in
the recent advancements taking place in Marine
Engineering field.
I reiterate my team members to focus on approaching
the Engineering Colleges and Polytechnic Colleges
and urge the CEOs of the colleges to establish
Students' Chapter at their colleges.
I request my member friends to bring in more and

THENDRAL-2018(A Technical Festival)
“Beat Plastic Pollution”, the theme for World Environment Day
2018, is a call to action for all of us to come together to combat
one of the great environmental challenges of our time.
Chosen by this year’s host, India, the theme of World Environment
Day 2018 invites us all to consider how we can make changes
in our everyday lives to reduce the heavy burden of plastic
pollution on our natural places, our wildlife – and our own health.
While plastic has many valuable uses, we have become over
reliant on single-use or disposable plastic – with severe
environmental consequences. Around the world, 1 million plastic
drinking bottles are purchased every minute. 500 billion
disposable plastic bags are used worldwide every year. In total,
50 per cent of the plastic we use is single use.
Nearly one third of the plastic packaging we use escapes
collection systems, which means that it ends up clogging our city
streets and polluting our natural environment. Every year, up to
13 million tons of plastic leak into our oceans, where it smothers
IEI–TSC–News Bulletin, May 20182
World Environment Day 2018coral reefs and threatens vulnerable marine wildlife. The plastic
that ends up in the oceans can circle the Earth four times in a
single year, and it can persist for up to 1,000 years before it fully
disintegrates. Plastic also makes its way into our water supply –
and thus into our bodies. What harm does that cause? Scientists
still aren’t sure, but plastics contain a number of chemicals, many
of which are toxic or disrupt hormones. Plastics can also serve
as a magnet for other pollutants, including dioxins, metals and
pesticides.
If you can’t reuse it, refuse it.
This year’s World Environment Day provides an opportunity for
each of us to embrace the many ways that we can help to combat
plastic pollution around the world. And you don’t have to wait
until 5 June to act.
There are so many things that we can do – from asking the
restaurants you frequent to stop using plastic straws, to bringing
your own coffee mug to work, to pressuring your local authorities
to improve how they manage your city’s waste. Here are some
other specific ideas:
• Bring your own shopping bags to the supermarket
• Pressure food suppliers to use non-plastic packaging
• Refuse plastic cutlery
• Pick up any plastic you see the next time you go for a walk
on the beach

World Telecommunication and Information Society Day (WTISD 2018)
Enabling the positive use of Artificial Intelligence for All
is the theme of WTISD-2018 and will focus on the po-
tential of Artificial Intelligence (AI) to accelerate the United
Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
In recent years there has been significant progress in AI
technology, made possible by tremendous advances in
contributing fields, such as Big Data, machine learning,
computing power, storage capacity and cloud computing,
among others. AI technologies are already emerging as a
key component of proactive tools and applications being
used to help people lead better lives by improving
healthcare, education, finance, agriculture, transportation,
and a wide range of other services.
The 2018 theme will allow ITU Membership and other key
stakeholders to focus on the opportunities for how AI can
help accelerate the achievement of the SDGs by 2030.
The activities to be undertaken by by IEI, will contribute
towards building momentum further mobilize support for
leveraging big data for development and as a mechanism
to enable and accelerate the Sustainable Development Goals
through ICT solutions and applications.
They will showcase and leverage relevant national and re-
gional strategies and initiatives that demonstrate how AI is
being used to deliver positive impact forcommunities and
people around the world and to accelerate sustainable
development.
