Ecosia, a particular search engine !!

in #nature6 years ago

Hello everyone

These days i'm a bit more interested in saving the environnement, that's why i'm always searching for news and methods to make the world better.

This week i remembred an article i've read last year about a particular search engine which gives you the power to plant a tree just by doing your research.

The name of this engine is: Ecosia.
This german social entreprise neutralizes 100% of the CO2 emissions of its servers, its infrastructure, its premises and the devices of its users, through a carbon offset project managed by its partner myclimate .

Their first mission is cultivate a more environmentally, socially and economically sustainable world. This effectively involves funding the planting of 1 billion trees until 2020 .

How it works ??

Ecosia offers a free search. The results displayed by the search engine are generated by Bing, enhanced by particular algorithms developed by Ecosia.
So, With Ecosia, we find the same results as with Bing (and Yahoo!) But the revenue related to clicks does not benefit Microsoft. On the contrary, nearly 80% of the profits generated by advertisements allow trees to be planted.

Now, you know everything about Ecosia. You don't have any excuse to ignore the forestation of the world especially when it requires you only a click.


thanks for reading
see you 🌷⚘
