Why is the last mile
delivery sector so important?
It accounts for 50% of emissions in the delivery sector. As India’s e-commerce market skyrockets, we’re hurtling toward 8 million tons of CO2 emissions by 2030 in the last mile of delivery alone—equivalent to 1.6 million petrol cars driven for a year or 20 gas-fired power plants. This is our moment to drive change.
