Ecosia is great in general, they’ve done stuff like this before for wildfires and such, and they are carbin negative and use 100% of their profits for helping the planet

The search engine is also pretty good too!

    Wait… how does that work?

    If our searches fund trees, then our searches have to be making them money… and I’m not aware of many advertisers that respect privacy.

      They show you ads based on your search terms, not based on trackers or digital profiles of you.

        I could be convinced that the search engine itself isn’t profiling me.

        But if by virtue of loading the ad, the advertiser gains my IP address, MAC address, and a fingerprint based on things like my installed fonts, then that’s not really privacy in any meaningful sense.

          It’s just a couple links at the top. It doesn’t load in any custom HTML/JS or iframe afaik.
