Shipping by sea per item mile relative to alternative transportation methods is actually extremely efficient in emissions terms. Secondly, ecommerce might be up but overall consumption is down.

For ecommerce, "shipping" is certainly referring to shipping the item to the customer, ie. USPS/UPS/FedEx/Amazon trucks driving around.

Definitely been an increase in that.
