Is it greener to shop on line or drive to the stores?

Question

I drive to one city the make 3 or 4 different stops not to mention all the stop and go traffic.

Answer 1

You HAVE TO go shopping sometime, and with the price of gas going up all the time, it is logical to have second thoughts about going to the store.  Right now, we have no other choice but to use fosil fuel to dirty the air.  If the options were different, I have an important request for the auto makers to fill our needs.  

1.  I need a car that is pure electric with an option of furthering the distance a little bit with on-board recharging support. [The power companies should be strickly regulated by the government, and investing in renewable sources.]

The car needs be what I would call a 50/50 generic car.  Meaning:

2.  It goes 50 miles on a charge, I know you can come up with this, even if it entails conventional lead batteries.

3.  It needs to go 50 or 55 mph.  If you remember a few years ago, the federal government made the whole USA drive at 55 mph to save gas and lives [and it did!].  

4.  I want to buy a new electric car for under $10,000.00.  This is affordable to me and millions of others.   You can bet your bottom dollar that this 50/50 generic EV will become more popular than the Volkeswagon, Chevette and Metro put together!!!!

Answer 2

I believe it's greener to shop on-line. The business I'm affiliated with has everything I need and more on-line from natural cleaners to an on-line mall that has hundreds of brand name stores to shop from.Also, when you sign up with a store on-line,you can get exclusive specials and coupons.Plus,most companies offer free shipping for 1st time customers,of if your order reaches a certain amount(usually $50 or so.) If you're interested,let me know and I'll send you a link.
