I dunno. Compare the fuel required to deliver a book by UAV drone
to that used to cart around the book and a 10 tonne truck. Of course
economies of scale may kick in for the truck case.
I was once told it costs about 19c per bottle of wine shipped from
Australia to North America. Wine by drone anyone?
cheers
