I expected much much more than "millions". This is comparable with the national post in my country, a way smaller operation. Way to go Amazon!

That was a pretty much of a waste. That report estimates that Amazon was responsible for 465 million pounds of plastic packaging waste last year. But Amazon says that figure is overblown — by over 350 percent.
