>I'd say, overall stop having a diesel truck come directly to your house every time you want a 0.5lbs item... Move your butt once a week and go shop for everything you need at once. Amazon is terrible for the environment.
The truck is taking a route to your house. It didn't drive the 10 miles from the distribution center, it drove 200 feet from your neighbors house.
A delivery truck is literally the same footprint as going and getting everything at once. If not less since its carrying far more things than you'd likely be getting on your trip to the store. You're perfectly aware of how many times you drove several miles just to get a CD or some socks or whatever it was you needed right now. Lots. And how many times did you go and then just leave with nothing because you were just bored and wanted out of the house or they didn't have your size or something?
