Sending and returning online orders puts a lot of delivery vans on the road and generates heavy CO2 emissions, which is exacerbated by the increasing popularity of online shopping. It’s time for a change. Together, we can work towards a sustainable solution, with fewer delivery vans on the road, while everyone can still shop to their heart’s content. Simple, yet sustainable.
