Since 2012, International Day of Forests highlights the importance of preserving our wooded ecosystems. On this occasion, Ecosia reminds us of its commitment to the planet. The company funds reforestation efforts through the internet users’ searches. With a sustainable business model and exemplary transparency, it establishes itself as an ethical alternative to traditional search engines. In 2025, adopting Ecosia means transforming a simple daily gesture into a concrete action for the environment.
A unique model for the environment
In 2025, as the climate emergency intensifies, the way we use the Internet becomes a powerful lever for action. Ecosia, a non-profit search engine, is a pioneer in this approach. It puts technology at the service of the planet. Based on a simple but revolutionary principle, the company dedicates 100% of its advertising profits to ecological initiatives, such as reforestation and regenerative agriculture. But its commitment doesn’t stop there. Ecosia also invests in green energy projects, such as the construction of solar plants. Thanks to these initiatives, the company produces more renewable energy than it consumes. In this way, it helps reduce the carbon footprint of the web.
Concrete and measurable actions
Since its inception, Ecosia has enabled the planting of more than 225 million trees in over 35 countries around the world. One of the strong points of this company lies in its responsible reforestation strategy: the company favors indigenous species and ensures to avoid monocultures. More than 500 different species have been planted in strategic areas, in collaboration with local communities.
In 2025, the impact of these actions is more tangible than ever. Every search made on Ecosia becomes an act of reforestation. It directly contributes to the fight against climate change. To date, more than 20 million people have chosen this search engine, convinced that every action counts in the preservation of our planet. Many businesses and administrations have also integrated Ecosia into their CSR strategy. This strengthens their commitment to a more sustainable future.
High-performance technology at the service of the planet
In addition to its environmental impact, Ecosia offers a quality search experience. Based on Microsoft Bing results and enhanced by its own algorithms, the search engine provides fast and relevant results. Its infrastructure relies on data centers fully powered by renewable energies. This guarantees a reduced carbon footprint for every search performed.
Transparency is also at the heart of Ecosia’s model. Every month, the company publishes a report detailing its finances, the number of trees planted, and the projects supported. This level of transparency reinforces users’ trust, who know that their simple online activity contributes to a global objective: the preservation of biodiversity and the fight against climate change. Ecosia is not just a search engine; it’s a true player in climate change. In 2025, as more and more businesses and individuals opt for responsible digital choices, this initiative is gaining momentum. Every search becomes a simple, free, yet powerful gesture for the planet.
