You have it backwards.

Everyone going to the store in their own car to get their crap versus the one delivery truck. Amazon is basically mass transit for merchandise.

Counterpoint...one Amazon delivery truck can make a pass down our street

Retail could mean more urban sprawl...don't forget how lazy people really

Amazon trucks probably make 20+ deliveries within a mile of my house...

Valid point. However I did not mention the bubble wrap and boxes for each

This is the best take. If mass transit is good for the environment...
