Blame It On Amazon Prime

Here's something everyone's encountering yet nobody's given much thought to the problem: We're becoming inundated with cardboard boxes. Yes, all those Amazon purchases are adding up. The impact: Recycling centers -- and curbside recycling containers -- are getting overwhelmed with cardboard. Buildings like apartment blocks and office complexes are trying to cope with receiving parcels in off hours with things like lockers and holding rooms. Porch package theft is a common problem. The traffic reduced by people not going to the store is being more than counterbalanced by more freight carriers on the roads. See? You never thought of it this way. (Minneapolis Star Tribune)
