» #EUSP (#EuropeanSearchPerspective) is our joint venture with #Qwant to build a #EuropeanSearchIndex. We started serving results to users in France last year, and now we’re excited to go live in Germany too. You won’t notice a big difference – but this is a big step towards #DigitalSovereignty. « #Ecosia #UnplugTrump #UnplugBigtech https://blog.ecosia.org/eusp-germany-rollout/

Your searches on Ecosia helped bring this landscape back to life in Ethiopia 🌳 Together with our partner Green Ethiopia, we’ve planted 20,000 trees here since 2017. These trees are already making a huge difference for people and wildlife: they’re cooling the land, restoring water cycles and stopping the soil from washing away 💚 Keep searching to help us restore even more landscapes! #ethiopia #reforestation #ecosia

Meet Amaille. In 2023, she started planting trees alongside her crops in Nyarusange, Rwanda. Today, those trees protect her fields from erosion, hold moisture in the soil, and naturally boost her crop yields. The extra income has changed everything. Amaille was able to buy livestock, secure money for her family’s healthcare, and send all four of her children to school. Want to see more farmers like Amaille succeed?

🔎 Search engines are infrastructure. And infrastructure must be neutral. In energy, rail, and telecoms, whoever controls the infrastructure cannot favor their own services. The same logic must apply to search. At Ecosia, we index the web. We don't compete with it. Users deserve genuine choice. #ecosia #dma #bigtech #digitalmarkets

Wait… that’s the same place? 🌳👀 These before and afters are the result of years of reforestation work with local communities and restoration partners around the world 💚 Every search on Ecosia helps us plant native trees where they are needed most, turning degraded landscapes back into thriving forests that support people and wildlife. If you haven’t already, switch to Ecosia and help us bring more forests back 🌱 #reforestation #beforeandafter #ecosia

Atención usuarios de ECOSIA ⚠️ Ecosia dice tener mucho amor por los árboles y las energías renovables, pero en la letra chica terminan llamando a los conocidos de siempre. Su principal proveedor de IA es Mistral (que también está bajo sospechas por temas de copyright) y usan de respaldo a OpenAI 🤦 #AI #genAI #chatbot #OpenAI #Mistral #Ecosia #greenwashing #search #ecology #browser

ECOSIA dice que tiene «la IA más ecológica del mundo» 🤦 Pero el principal problema de esta afirmación es que «IA» y «ecología» son conceptos que van por carriles opuestos, más aún si las empresas en las que se apoyan son parte del grupo que acelera el daño al medioambiente. Esto es puro greenwashing ⚠️ #AI #Mistral #OpenAI #browser #ecosia #greenwashing #energy #environment #data #ecology #tech #technology

RE: https://mastodon.social/@ecosia/116851286194372782 Ah ! #Ecosia permet maintenant de désactiver complètement l'usage d'#IA sur son moteur de recherche ! Et, avec ou sans IA, ils continueront à planter des arbres ! C'est con que toute l'eau nécessaire pour les arbres soit utilisée pour refroidir les data-center dédiés à l'IA qu'Ecosia a choisi de mettre en place et d'activer par défaut. #IARienQuiVa

Your search, your choice. You can now use Ecosia completely AI-free. Use AI when you need it, or switch every AI feature off when you don’t. However you choose to search, your searches still help fund climate action 🌱

Out of curiosity, I tried to find the option to turn off @ecosia@mastodon.social 's AI features. The first thing I pressed (paperclip at the bottom left of the search field) brought up this dialog. So much for that. I have no more questions. @davidgerard@circumstances.run @fasterandworse@hci.social @ketan@climatejustice.social @kimcrawley@zeroes.ca #ecosia #greenwashing #highOnAI

Jetzt wo ihr alle auf eine #freie und offene Plattform für #SocialMedia gewechselt seid, das #Fediverse, könnt ihr z.B. bei den #Suchmaschine weiter machen. 🔎 @MetaGer@suma-ev.social 🔎 @Mojeek@mastodon.social 🔎 @monocles@monocles.social 🔎 https://gruble.de Ne du, so was wie #DuckDuckGo, #StartPage & #Ecosia liefern Daten ihrer Crawler wie #Bing (M$) und/oder #Google.

Wollt Ihr Euch für eine ökologische, uneigennütze Suchmaschine einsetzen? Wir benutzen #Ecosia schon eine Weile, aber hier geht es darum, dass die Verwaltung in Schleswig-Holstein die auch nutzt und damit Bäume pflanzt. (Und den KI-Quark braucht man meistens nicht.) https://www.landtag.ltsh.de/petitionen/digitale-souvernitt-durch-nachhaltige-und-europische-suchmaschine/

@futurebird@sauropods.win To be free from Google, the EU invests into an own search machine which is a cooperation of #Ecosia and #Qwant. No free community would have the financial power you need for such a project! @doomsdayrs@cyberpunk.lol

What does it take to prepare thousands of trees for planting? 🌴 In West Bengal, India, our partners at Symagine Solutions are getting ready for the planting season. Community members help raise and distribute seedlings, and community leaders (many of them women) train others in how to plant and care for them 🌱 Households receive a small number of saplings at a time, so each tree can get the care it needs. This is what collective restoration looks like 💚 #westbengal #ecosia #treeplanting

Planting trees is easy. Growing forests that last? Not so much. Here's what 250 million trees taught us about real restoration 🌳 #250Mtrees #ecosia
