There's little that's green about the Amazon


Amazon just sent me an email. Their algorithm figured that if I bought "Worldchanging" then I'm sure to like a whole slew of books about being green.... You know the drill.


And that's totally true. So in my best effort to be green-- halo adorned-- I'm going to order all of these books and have Amazon ship them to me in individual cardboard boxes that could each house a moose, stuffed with plastic balloons for stability, glossy coupons for my next internet purchase, and a little extra cardboard and plastic wrap for protection within the moose box. And I'm gonna make sure that Carlos, our UPS guy, takes separate trips to my door in his big brown super combuster, so the air in the east williamsburg industrial park prevents any need for future deforestation. When the books arrive, and I've absorbed all the lessons, I'm going to shoot myself for what I've done.
