If people only go and buy such goods as soap and toilet paper, they may only have to visit once every couple of months. A delivery truck can carry meals for a lot of people in the neighborhood. So dozens of car trips might be replaced with one truck trip. delivery services score well on reducing food waste, buying the same food ingredients from the supermarket almost always saves energy overall simply because meal kits use so much singleuse packaging. The good news is that if people have meals that are tailored for consumption, they won39。 Home delivery meal kits(盒)can reduce food waste by more than twothirds, but suppliers need to switch to reusable packaging to make them environmentally friendly. 3．閱讀理解 根據(jù)倒數(shù)第三段中的“‘Society has changed.
