[quote=Anonymous]We order everything online. Groceries, diapers, cat litter, clothes, stuff for around the house, gifts, really everything. However - we live in the city and don’t own a car. Specifically as far as environmental degradation - it’s vastly better for the environment than driving everywhere. And in fact, the plethora of easy delivery options makes city living significantly easier and more manageable, and thus allows us a car free lifestyle. Denser housing with way fewer cars and more delivery trucks is an environmental win. Delivery trucks with dozens of packages is much more efficient than dozens of people driving to Target individually. Now - labor wise, this is a tougher call, as delivery drivers and warehouse workers are not adequately compensated, but that’s a different issue. [/quote]
