The Ecosia app lets you browse and search the web – with private browsing, dark mode, and ad blocking features. The big difference? Ecosia uses 100% of its profits for climate action, with at least 80% financing tree-planting projects around the world. Download the Ecosia app and plant your first tree today! **How does it work?** Like other search engines, Ecosia makes money from search ads. But unlike other search engines, Ecosia uses this income to protect the future of our planet. The Ecosia community is planting millions of trees every month across the world's most threatened biodiversity hotspots, simply by searching the web. Join in the action and track your impact with your personal counter! **Privacy, not just promises** We're interested in trees, not your data: we don't create a personal profile of you, we don't sell your data to advertisers, and your searches are always encrypted. **1 search = 1kg of CO2 removed** CO2 neutral is not enough. Thanks to our own solar farms, we’re not just producing enough solar energy to power all of your searches with renewables, but twice as much. Being 200% renewable means every search with Ecosia is crowding out dirty energy from the electricity grid. And thanks to the tree we plant, one Ecosia search removes about 1 kg of CO2 from the air. **Radical transparency** Trust has to be earned. That's why we publish our monthly financial reports on our website. We also signed an irreversible contract that makes it impossible to sell Ecosia or take money out of the company. Download the Ecosia app today and let’s fight climate change together!
