SMSeLINK Volume 01 ; Issue 01 Dear Family Member’s: It was really wonderful to see the enthusiastic month. The sports activities and the Celebration of our Company’s Foundation Day has made a remarkable memory. It’s your hard work and dedication which makes you stand out; out of the box thinking and ideas are amazing which is helping the company grow. Most important was the team work observed by members of all verticals. We are sure if we continue performing like this we will soon set the milestone to the next level. Congratulations!! To all the Winners. The World Environment day is on 5th June 2012. This year it is based on Green Economy hosted by the country Brazil. The green economy is one that results in improved human well-being and social equity, while significantly reducing environmental risks and ecological green economy is an economy or economic development model based on sustainable development and a knowledge of ecological economics. The present environmental problem lies in our prevalent model of development, which has established consumerism as an index of development. The answer to this problem can be observed in Jain Philosophy. The first principle of Jain Philosophy is Ahimsa; by which non-violence or non- injury to any form of life is maintained. The second Principle is Aparigraha, which means to limit possessions to what is necessary or important. Both this principles help us in safeguarding the environment. I would also, like to congratulate the team members to grab the ONGC Tender at Nada after the continuous hard work for more than one year. Also, I heartily congratulate the MEPL team for achieving the Vasundhara Award for the industry sector of the year 2012 01 June 2012 Editor & Publisher: AartiBorole AbhaySancheti Chairman

ENVIRONMENT NEWS Green Economy: Does it include YOU? The 2012 theme for World Environment Day is Green Economy: Does it include you? Evidently, there are two parts of this theme and the first tackles the subject of the Green Economy. This is where some people shut off their minds because they find the concept of the Green Economy a little too complex to understand. On the contrary, the Green Economy is really something that is applicable all around you and it is easy to imagine how you fit in it. The UN Environment Program defines the Green Economy as one that results in improved human well-being and social equity, while significantly reducing environmental risks and ecological scarcities. In its simplest expression, a green economy can be thought of as one which is low carbon, resource efficient and socially inclusive. Practically speaking, a Green Economy is one whose growth in income and employment is driven by public and private investments that reduce carbon emissions and pollution, enhance energy and resource efficiency, and prevent the loss of biodiversity and ecosystem services. These investments need to be catalyzed and supported by targeted public expenditure, policy reforms and regulation changes. But what does all this mean for you? Well, this essentially what the second part of the theme is all about. If the Green Economy is about social equity and inclusiveness then technically it is all about you! The question therefore asks you to find out more about the Green Economy and assess whether, in your country, you are being included in it.

TIME TO SMILE Four men were bragging about how smart their dogs were. One man was an engineer, the second man was an accountant, the third man was a chemist, and the fourth was a government worker. To show off, the engineer called to his dog. “T-square, do your stuff.” T-square trotted over to a desk, took out some paper and a pen, and promptly drew a circle, a square, and a triangle. Everyone agreed that, that was pretty smart. The accountant said that his dog could do better. He called to his dog and said, “Spreadsheet, do your stuff.” Spreadsheet went out into the kitchen and returned with a dozen cookies. He divided them into four equal piles of three cookies each. Everyone agreed that, that was good. The chemist said that his dog could do better still he called to his dog and said, “Measure, do your stuff.” Measure got up, walked over to the fridge, took out a quart of milk, got a ten-ounce glass from the cupboard, and poured exactly eight ounces without spilling a drop. Everyone agreed that, that was pretty impressive. Then the three men turned to the government worker and said, “What can your dog do?” The government worker called to his dog and said, “Coffee Break, do your stuff.” Coffee Break jumped to his feet, ate the cookies, drank the milk, claimed he had injured his back while doing so, filed a grievance report for unsafe working conditions, put in for worker’ compensation, and went home for the rest of the day on sick leave. They all agreed that, that was brilliant!
