More and more organizations—multinationals, NGOs, government institutions, and universities—are making a simple yet powerful change: setting Ecosia as their default search engine. Why? Because it’s free, easy, and a no-brainer for the planet.
When a company switches to Ecosia, the impact is huge. By doing something they already do every day, searching and browsing the internet, employees help fund reforestation in biodiversity hotspots around the world, restoring ecosystems and supporting local communities. And the best part? Changing over is seamless.
Here’s what would happen if your company made the switch:
Embed sustainability within the company culture
For a company to truly make positive steps in sustainability, it can’t just sit with one team. With Ecosia, everyone will be empowered to take climate action and play an active role in the company’s sustainability strategy. Ecosia fosters a culture of environmental awareness and demonstrates a commitment to making a real impact. Green practices become a daily habit—integrated seamlessly into the way your team works.
Support tree planting in over 35 countries
When your team starts searching with Ecosia, they join the biggest reforestation movement in the world and begin making a difference, immediately. Ecosia dedicates 100% of its profits to climate action, allowing your company to effortlessly plant trees in parts of the world where they are needed most and support green initiatives all over the globe, rather than line the pockets of shareholders.
Since Deutsche Telekom–one of the leading telecommunications companies worldwide–switched to Ecosia in 2024, the company’s employees have been supporting tree-planting projects such as the Jane Goodall Institute in Uganda, restoring chimpanzee habitats and supporting livelihoods of local communities through increased shade cover and planting coffee trees.
Get a custom report on your impact
Large companies receive a monthly tree report, highlighting the impact of employees’ internet searches and the total number of trees they helped to plant. You’ll receive new and engaging metrics to include in your ESG reports, to demonstrate the value of making this simple change. Plus engaging impact stories from the field to remind you of your real-world impact.
Set an example
By switching to Ecosia, your company isn’t just taking climate action—it’s setting a powerful example for others to follow. Showcasing the impact of your searches can inspire employees, clients, and industry peers to think bigger about sustainability. You could encourage other organizations to adopt Ecosia or implement even more ambitious climate commitments. When companies take action together, the ripple effect can drive real, systemic change.
