home shopping  

Definición

  • The rise of home shopping—the ability of individuals to purchase goods and services from their homes, generally over the Internet—has not only changed patterns of consumer spending but has also changed the environmental impact of consumption. In large part, this is because home shopping—itself an element of a larger trend in retailing called e-commerce—necessitates a reevaluation of how carbon miles are calculated in the cycle of purchasing goods and services.
