Customers don't always buy tonnes of things in one go, though. It's common for people to spend an afternoon shopping and just buy a few things. If everyone gets in their cars to drive to the store to pick up a few things, there will be a lot more pollution generated than if it was all delivered by a big truck. Especially if those people live in a suburb that's far from any shopping centers.

Yeah this part of my analysis but also the front end.

Product is manufactured in china, shipped to us, warehoused. That's the same for both ecommerce and store.
