Ecosia GmbH Sustainability Actions

Published monthly financial reports

Ecosia publishes monthly financial reports to show how much money it makes, how much it invests in planting trees, and which projects were supported in that month. It says, "We're all about transparency. That's why we publish monthly financial reports to keep you in the loop on our latest tree planting and climate impact projects."

Published regeneration reports

Once a year, Ecosia publishes a Regeneration Report, which it describes as its version of a sustainability report. The CO2 emissions are audited by ClimatePartner. It says the trees it plants are not used to offset emissions, and that it focuses on avoiding emissions, offsetting unavoidable ones with high-quality carbon credits, and producing twice as much renewable energy as needed for Ecosia searches.

Set up regenerative agriculture incubator
