“…The issues of enhancing the deliverability of consignments have become the main topic of the wide dis-cussion among national and international organizations involved in last-mile logistics (Turska and Madlenakova, 2019). According to some authors, however, it is necessary to focus and improve the processes of the first mile, because it is beginning to appear as another narrow place in the logistics processes (Koncova et al, 2021).…”

Society, companies and institutions are involved in a digital transformation that can be pervaded in various industries or sectors, and this also applies to communication, sales and distribution channels. The possibilities of e-commerce have also increased and world trade has been further developed. In 2020, more than two billion people bought goods or services over the Internet. Customer satisfaction depends on the solution of the last mile process, the method of picking up shipments as well as the time and place of picking up the shipment. The most common forms of off-premises delivery are automated parcel locker or machine (APM) and pick-up and drop-off delivery (PUDO). The aim of the paper is to analyse the level of the PUDO and APM network in European countries and in the V4 countries with regard to the size of the country and the population. For this purpose, it was necessary to focus on determining the population per 1 PUDO and the number of inhabitants per 1 APM in individual European countries and subsequently in the V4 countries. The obtained data were processed and recalculated in Excel. The results showed that within European countries the best values were achieved by Finland with 526 inhabitants per 1 PUDO and Spain with 188 inhabitants per 1 APM. Regarding the V4 countries, the Czech Republic achieved the best value in the case of inhabitants on PUDO with 729 inhabitants per 1 PUDO and in the case of APM Poland with 3,184 inhabitants per 1 APM.

Reports on environmental news can guide public opinion and regulate stakeholders to take the initiative to save energy and reduce carbon emissions. With China’s declared target of “carbon peaking and carbon neutral”, specialized environmental journalism talents are needed, and a good environmental journalism curriculum reform evaluation system is essential. The Snowball sampling technique is adopted to survey respondents using a well-structured questionnaire. The questionnaire included four dimensions: course content, assessment methods, development planning, and teaching research. The experts’ comments were quantified first, and then a three-level evaluation system was constructed using the Analytic Hierarchical Process. It was found that the content of the environmental journalism course on carbon peaking and carbon neutrality and the assessment methods for students were most valued by the experts and account for relatively large portions of the overall system. According to the scores of experts on the current situation of environmental journalism education with a double carbon theme in China, the course content and assessment methods need to be further improved compared with the career development planning of students and the teaching research of educators.
