Deliver

Jack Reichert
By Jack Reichert

Considering the rising price of gasoline it is probably cheaper to get your groceries delivered than to take your car to the supermarket. Yes, the delivery van will be doing the driving for you, so why bother? Well, they deliver multiple deliveries for the same amount of gas that you would use to go and return. So you save money and save a little bit of the environment as well!

As far back as he can remember Jack Reichert has been interested in the environment. In the second grade, he rallied all of his classmates to donate one recess a week to cleaning up litter from the schoolyard. That was the same year that a city councilman asked him to help with his campaign because of the letter Jack had written asking him to clean up Boston Harbor. Ever since Jack has followed the development of the international green conscience with anticipation and hope that one day we will treat Mother Earth with the respect she deserves and not turn her into another Giving Tree.

  1. In my neighborhood in Jerusalem, the delivery guys work with grocery carts and actually wheel the stuff to your house, by foot! This is the best way to deliver, IMHO. It’s good for me, good for him (he makes some money) and very good for the environment.
