You don't even have to be a person who usually clicks on adverts, as the more people who use their search engine, the higher the price advertisers are willing to pay to appear in their search results and the more profit they can make to plant trees. Ecosia advertises that it donates 80 of the search ad profit to plant trees, and the company says it has planted more than 7.2 million (and counting) since launching though still, unfortunately, going a very small way to offset the estimated 15 billion trees cut down each year. As of August 2019, 598,896 trees have been planted in our Kaffrine 3 project in Senegal through Ecosia’s support. That’s how, by Ecosia’s own count, it has planted over 70. So how can you get involved and help plant trees for free?īy changing the search engine you use to Ecosia, that is all you have to do. After paying for its operational and marketing costs, Ecosia invests the rest in long-term projects and tree-planting organizations. Unlike all other search engines, they use at least 80 % of the profit from this revenue for the good of the planet by taking on projects around the world to reforest damaged areas due to natural disasters and mans ever increasing amount of deforestation. Like all search engines, Ecosia gets revenue from advertising in their search results. This extension sets your search engine to Ecosia and customizes your new tab page so you can plant trees with every search. Ecosia is not planting trees in order to be a sustainable (or indeed regenerative) company rather, Ecosia is planting trees because it is a regenerative.
The trees Ecosia is planting also have many other environmental benefits. This means that, if Ecosia were as big as Google, it could absorb 15 of all global CO2 emissions. How does Ecosia Work and How can YOU Help Plant Trees for Free? Since Ecosia uses its profits to plant trees, however, every search with it actually removes about 1 kg of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. So far (as of July 2020) they have planted over 100 million trees to help reforest some of the worst affected areas around the world. Ecosia uses the ad revenue from your searches to plant trees where they are needed the most. Unlike most other search engines, use 80% or more of their profits to plant trees all around the world.
