What is Ecosia?

Ecosia offers a climate-positive way to search the internet, directing all profits toward planting trees and supporting environmental restoration. Its global projects focus on regenerating ecosystems, improving biodiversity, and empowering local communities with long-term benefits. Unlike traditional search engines, Ecosia openly shares its finances each month so users can track income, expenses, and impact in real time. Privacy protection is central to its mission, with strict limits on data collection and zero tolerance for selling information. The platform’s AI is built using compact, efficient models that lower energy consumption without compromising accuracy or speed. Ecosia also generates more renewable energy than it uses, sending surplus green power back into the grid. Its reforestation strategy avoids monocultures, instead planting hundreds of native species that support soil health and wildlife. With over 20 million active users, its community-driven approach makes global ecological restoration more accessible than ever. Using Ecosia requires no lifestyle change—every search becomes a small act of environmental stewardship. By integrating sustainability into everyday browsing, Ecosia helps ordinary people create extraordinary impact for the planet.

    Compact

    Date: Mar 01 2022
    Summary

    Really handy quick and effective and at the end of the day a real good and fresh feel and yet so elegant against Google.

    Positive

    Google search UI changes across platforms and on Android apps times of treats you like a kid with minimal results and a lot of empty space whereas Ecosia has a uniform UI across platforms.

    Negative

    Could use some work on the picture section also on Android the tree counter resets sometimes.

    It's great!

    Date: Apr 07 2022
    Summary

    A great experience! Its newer so I expect it'll evolve and improve over time. I've also planted around 200 trees in just 3 days!

    Positive

    It feels good being able to help the world - even if only a bit - with each search. I appreciate the platforms transparency with what they do with their money and I would love to see more projects like this!

    Negative

    In other search engines, when I click an image it will show me more images related to that image. I would love for it to have that feature! Also when I search up 'calculator' or other tools, having a calculator pop up immediately when I search, or stats, etc, is super useful!
