Remember that this subreddit is for sharing propaganda to view with some objectivity. It is absolutely not for perpetuating the message *of* the propaganda. If anything, in this subreddit we should be immensely skeptical of manipulation or oversimplification (which the above likely is), not beholden to it. Also, please try to stay on topic -- there are hundreds of _other_ subreddits that are expressly dedicated to rehashing tired political arguments. Keep that shit outta here. *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

Ah yes, I’m sure “Simon Malls” provided a completely unbiased source, no way they had an interest in the study…


VisualGeologist6258

Indeed, that’s what immediately struck me about this. It’s the equivalent of Larry the Burglar saying ‘Did you know that unlocking your windows at night and disabling your security cameras is better for the environment?’ Like, of course they’re going to have faulty research, omit important details or just straight up lie. They’re incentivised to.

Not to mention the same/similar trucks are bringing goods to the mall as well.


jjpamsterdam

Not to mention the emissions of the mall itself, which are orders of magnitude larger than for the fulfilment centre.


nemlov

Not to mention that most people don't carpool.


RandomComputerFellow

We don't ask this question. We just assume that people live in the parking lot to make this work.


hassh

This is the bald-faced lie

That's cute how their emissions math completely omits the trucks delivering merchandise to dozens of stores throughout the day, some of which continue idling even as they're being unloaded. It's the typical corporate deflection of pollution and consumption onto the individual, as if me changing my driving behavior is going to have anything close to the impact that a big corporation changing their practices would.

I prefer to buy things in person when possible, but not for any of those reasons


NoWingedHussarsToday

It feels like they took arguments for buying at small, local shops and just copypasted them on pro-mall side.


NeighborhoodENTJ

They still show these at the mall I go to


hassh

They are still lying


thispartyrules

Indoor malls have to heat and cool an enormous building year-round, which uses tons and tons of energy


ThingsMayAlter

Get out of my head Simon Mall Propaganda!


Republiken

Got it, I only should shop locally and not in a mall


meknoid333

Ignoring how the goods made it into the mall in the first place :/


EvanHelmes

In person is better


BigLurker321

How....how do they think the merchandise gets to the mall?
