Save the oceans by browsing the web. By 2050, there will be more plastic than fish in the ocean. That’s why we recover ocean-bound plastic when you browse the web. Just surf the web like you do every day. Collect shells along the way. For every 100 shells, we can recover one bottle. We show just a few sponsored links to make this possible. We’re working with local communities to collect plastic. And we’re supporting partners like PlasticBank who build up a global network of plastic collection hubs. The ads we display are so small that they will not be in your way. They appear as small circles on your browsers home page when you open new browser tabs. In case you use our search engine as well, then you will see a few search ads on top of the search results. Just like in any other search engine.

    "It's great!"

    Posted 2022-04-07

    Pros: 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!

    Cons: 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!

    Overall: 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!

    "Compact"

    Posted 2022-03-01

    Pros: 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.

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

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