    Amazon has the best logistics infrastructure of any company in the world. It is literally the most efficient system of moving goods ever known to mankind.

    You are responsible for the carbon footprint of things you purchase, yes. This is why things like carbon taxes with dividends are such good ideas.

        Well, you’re not, but your parents are.

        Whoever actually buys the thing is.

              “commie logic” is attributing culpability to the people who do things. i wonder what kind of logic wouldn’t make people responsible for their own actions?

              I work at a corporation. We don’t do environmentally the right thing because leadership doesn’t care and operation needs to be cheap. Whenever I suggest something it falls on deaf ears.

              It’s very obvious who can decide to change something in a company.

                  The point is that neither employees nor consumer can be responsible for the decisions of capitalists. And they aren’t held responsible by anybody, not even by normal people like you. Come on… connecting points here with you.
