Do people really get tempted by online convenience to over consume? I think of online shopping as saving me a trip driving to one or more stores, and don’t believe I buy significantly more than I would have otherwise
Since pandemic where I really started relying on online orders, I almost never goto physical stores except the grocery. Saves a lot of driving time, saves a lot of my time
Also saves loads of CO2. Got beat up on here for saying buying on Amazon is more climate friendly than going to the store. But it’s rather obvious, isn’t it?
If 100 people in my hood need a thing from Walmart, that’s 100 cars and trucks making a 22-mile round trip. The same Amazon truck can serve those same 100 people on one trip. Same difference in using a bus vs. a car.
Say what you will about Amazon, but their efficiency is beyond question.
I dumped amazon at the first of the year. I’ve save so much money not buying cheap plastic crap!
