    The same company that will same day deliver a single tube of toothpaste to my door doesn’t care about carbon emissions? What?

      On one hand that sounds bad, but if that delivery driver is dropping off enough things in one run that would have been individual people driving to a store, does it balance out?

        Maybe, but Amazon in particular will also bag/box every solitary thing. Not sure if it balances, but it’s an interesting question when you put it that way.

        Still, I expect they prioritize meeting service levels over fuel economy.
