Frequently Asked Questions

What is CO2-negative?

Ecosia started building its own solar power plants in 2018. Thus, clean energy has been provided to the servers ever since to run all Ecosia searches on 100% renewable energy.

By planting trees and balancing energy use with renewable energies, every search with Ecosia actually removes 1kg of CO2 from the air, making Ecosia a CO2-negative search engine. Here’s the math: an average search generates around €0.005 in revenue. The cost of planting a tree is about 0.25 €, so Ecosia can plant a tree approximately every 45 searches. On average, each of these trees will remove 50kg of CO2 from the atmosphere over an expected 15-year lifetime.

This means that if Ecosia were as big as Google, it could absorb 15% of all global CO2 emissions!

How Can I Participate in the ITU on Ecosia Campaign?

Install Ecosia on your computer or phone with the link ecosia.co/ITU which is produced exclusively for ITU and start using it, so that the trees you contribute to planting will be added to the ITU on Ecosia Campaign counter!
