Uber is shutting down alcohol delivery app Drizly
  + stars: | 2024-01-15 | by ( Samantha Delouya | ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +1 min
CNN —Uber is shutting down its alcohol delivery app, Drizly, just three years after acquiring it for $1.1 billion. The alcohol delivery service operated as a standalone app, and its marketplace was to be integrated into Uber’s delivery app, Uber Eats. In an effort to ramp up its competitive edge in the delivery business, Uber also purchased another delivery company, Postmates, for $2.65 billion a few months before it acquired Drizly. Uber’s ridesharing business has bounced back in recent quarters, though. In November, Uber reported gross bookings for the third quarter that beat the company’s own expectations.

It’s been 17 years since former Vice President Al Gore raised the alarm about climate change with his documentary, “An Inconvenient Truth.” Since then, he’s been shouting from the rooftops about the risks of global warming more or less nonstop. But the events of the past few weeks have Gore even more worried than usual. “Everywhere you look in the world, the extremes have now seemingly reached a new level,” he told me in an interview. And this summer, the extreme weather chaos that Gore predicted in “An Inconvenient Truth” seems to have arrived all at once. “Every night on the TV news is like taking a nature hike through the Book of Revelation,” Gore said.
