The idea is good, but I doesn't feel worth it

Pros:

Makes you feel better

Cons:

You're still being tracked by Google for a few trees a year

They are really transparent with they budget too.

Pros:

Plant more trees in poor countries and deserts from home by searching

Cons:

It's powered by bing instead of google ... no stock searching, worse results, no quick google translate and everything you can imagine.

I think, it's on the market for a long time already...

Pros: After roughly 25 searches a tree is planted, the company is transparent about how they spend their money and they are a negative CO2 company which is hard to achieve due to many companies wanting to use fossil fuels. Cons: Ecosia uses bing as the search engine which isn't as good as google when it comes to certain things like other than video searches. I've used Ecosia for a long time and have been able to plant many trees and further the publics understanding of their "footprint" while living on Earth.

I've set it as my default search engine. I hope I won't miss Google. Love the design too.

I switched to this months ago and I love it! It's doing good on auto-pilot.

Looks like the same engine as Bing but with the benefit of planting trees.
