Online shopping is not that sustainable. Current concerns are returns. First you have the carbon emissions of the first package delivery then the return package carbon emissions plus the waste. The waste comes that is more expensive to handle return products than to simply throw them.
What I mean it’s more eco friendly to have big batch shipments to stores than individual small packages sent by post.
A normal physical store is usually more environmentally friendly than online shopping.
