It is very likely better than individuals going out to do those errands on their own.

Not when you have a truck come at your door every 2-3 days to deliver a single pair of socks.

E: If you were to order everything you need (groceries included) once a week, it would be better, yes. But lets face it, you like your 1-day delivery, don't you?

Why would I need to “face it”, I do like 1-day delivery. The point you’re missing is that trucks go to multiple stops in the same area. Which likely uses less gas than all of those people driving to all sorts of different destinations.

Yeah im not going to try and educate you. Just google why 1 day delivery is terrible for the environment.

Imagine 100 people going for a drive to get something they want and then imagine 1 dude driving around, delivering goods to those 100 people.

Which one do you think is worse for the environment?
