Hi everyone, this is not a picture of lovely greenery but is a way to get more green into the world. Some of you may already be aware of this, but many people I know are not.

The search engine Ecosia plants real trees using their ad revenue. The German company posts their revenue every year and has always used at least 80% to reforest places around the world that had been deforested or devastated by natural disasters like wildfires. I think it’s pretty neat to contribute to one of the few organizations trying to do something positive.

The actual search engine uses Bing, which has been carbon neutral for a few years, and pretty much gives the same results as Google or DuckDuckGo.

Obviously that means it collects data and sells it. For me, I don’t really care if someone knows my general searches like “who is the oldest living person.”

I don’t represent the organization and don’t get anything for people knowing about it. I just think it’s cool and want to share. Thanks for listening… err reading.
