There are many small actions that you can take to make a difference. Using ENJO to clean your home is one way in which you can help to reduce carbon emissions and slow global warming.
When using ENJO Cloths and Gloves to clean your home, you no longer need to buy plastic bottles and spray cans full of chemicals. The chemicals, plastic bottles and aerosol cans are produced by manufacturing which generates a high level of carbon emissions.
If one home can use ENJO instead of 50 bottles of chemicals over two years, multiply this by every household in Australia and imagine the enormous amount of carbon emissions that could be reduced.
For more information simply check out our website www.enjo.com.au or call freecall 1800 222 540.

Anti Nuclear Alliance
The Anti-Nuclear Alliance of WA has campaigned since 1997 against the nuclearisation of Australia in all its aspects: uranium mining, the new Œresearch‚ reactor in Sydney, irradiation of food, the hosting of an international N-waste dump and the use of depleted uranium in weapons.
Through our stalls, website, public meetings, and media liaison, we counter the misleading mantra of the nuclear industry that it is the answer to the greenhouse problem. If nuclear energy is assessed for greenhouse gas emissions over the whole cycle - mining, milling, construction, reprocessing of fuel, decommissioning of reactors, transport and storage of waste (rather than just the production of electricity) ˆ the sums look very different. Not only does N-power leave deadly waste for future generations but the net greenhouse emissions are right up there! Investment in clean renewable technologies reaps far greater harvests than do the billions needed to prop up the nuclear industry.
Check out our website before you come to the Sun Fair, then come and pick up the latest pamphlets and have a chat.
