"Do you order different sizes of clothing online, knowing you can return
the one that doesn't fit?
Did you know the ones you return are sometimes sent straight to landfill?
Online shopping has created a boom in perfectly good products ending up
in dumpsters and landfills, according to Adria Vasil, an environmental
journalist and managing editor of Corporate Knights magazine."
Via Muse, who wrote "Be careful what you buy online, even from
respectable sources."
