People probably consumed a similar amount as before. The emissions reduction probably came from people traveling less because of lockdowns. But yeah, the whole story could be bs
Reminder that Amazon and food delivery services posted Earth shattering record profits during that period, which doesn't line up with similar rates of consumption.
Amazon has seriously expanded its delivery fleet with fluid couriers also, as has FedEx. I'm sure UPS has had to hire more as well, and I know local USPS has been on a massive hiring craze.
Amazon, FedEx, UPS, and USPS might’ve expanded because people were driving themselves to the stores less. So some car emissions were replaced by delivery vehicle emissions. But people would’ve been eating food, using toiletries, etc at a similar rate. I think a real decrease in emissions might’ve come from replacing in-person visits with zoom or other teleconferencing when offices and schools were locked down.
No significant increase in deaths in 2020. The excess deaths didn’t increase significantly until 2021 when the vaxx was rolled out.
For 2020, they probably really are talking about emissions.
Meanwhile people ordered more stuff and shipped them by plane, boat and truck which would increase emissions.
Who knows, regardless you'll never get accurate information from a government. Especially not one led by the illegitimate son of a dictator.
