Ecosia - the search engine that plants trees
www.ecosia.org
Ecosia uses the ad revenue from your searches to plant trees where they are needed the most. By searching with Ecosia, you’re not only reforesting our planet, but you’re also empowering the communities around our planting projects to build a better future for themselves. Give it a try!

Ecosia is a search engine that aggregates search results from multiple other search engines. The ad revenue from our searches funds the planting of trees worldwide. With over 200 million trees planted so far, Ecosia have learned to be fully transparent about their projects, and financials which are available right on that website. Set it as your default search engine, and start planting trees. They also recently released a Chromium based browser if that’s your thing - TechCrunch article for reference.

    They make less money, if more people use it with ad blocker, since they have to pay Microsoft for search results but in turn get most of ad revenue (ads need to be clicked)

    I guess most people here use ad blocker

      They partner with multiple search providers, not just MS. And yes ad-blockers, but I’ve disabled it for ecosia.org
