Switch to an Eco-Friendly Search Engine
Although Google is an efficient way to search the web, you can switch instead fund search engines that use profits to plant trees and clean the oceans.
Ecoisa (add to Chrome – it’s free) is solar-powered and donates 80% of revenue from ads to non-profits that so far have planted over 200 million trees worldwide (now the biggest reforestation scheme on the planet). It has planted 3.5 million trees in Brazil (and paid for 6.5 million more) to reforest an area in Pantanal, which were destroyed in a wildfire along with the animals in it.
To switch, just click the three dots at top right of your screen, then click settings, then select ‘switch search engine’. You’ll find the option for Ecoisa. Select and you’re done!
Ocean Hero sponsors others to remove five plastic bottles from the ocean, each time you search the web. By working with an organisation that pays people in economic poverty to recover ocean-bound plastic for a job. Working with partners in Indonesia, Haiti, Brazil and the Philippines.
