Buy.com makes online shopping more eco-friendly
June 26, 2009
According to this press release, buy.com made strides to make online shopping more eco friendly. Being the middleman, online shopping websites order from suppliers who ship to their facilities and then to your house. However, buy.com is shipping directly from one its suppliers (Kingston Technologies) if you purchase a Kingston “Go Green” USB Flash drive or SD cards. The box will be shipped with much less packaging, and eliminates driving the products to the buy.com facilities. And with all the information we store on computer, who doesn’t need a promotional USB drive?
Buying items online is easy from the comfort of your computer chair, but consider ways to reduce your ecological footprint if you do order. Also, check for eco-friendly businesses.
