Which is to say that for the next several hours, you can go onto your computer, click a box, and have a case of water, packaged in a box with packing material, delivered to your house by a UPS truck. For an extra $2.99 (if you have Amazon Prime) you can have it flown to you in a plane.
1% of the proceeds of this sale (which is to say, maybe 3 cents) will be donated to environmental causes, so you...
