I bike to Wal-Mart...
several times a week. I rarely drive there, or anywhere else, for that matter.
As was mentioned, there are definitely things to lament about the existence of Wal-Mart in town, such as its effects on local stores. But there is a benefit to having an efficient distribution system like they have; it's good for distribution trucks to save fuel by having as few stops as possible, and Wal-Mart's trucks have very few deliveries to make.
I'm not a Wal-Mart evangelist by any stretch, but they are here, and there is nothing we can do to reverse their reach or influence, so it does make me happy to see them using their market power to have a green influence.On The impossibility of a green Wal-Mart posted 2 years, 8 months ago 27 Responses
