🌱 ECOSIA: Searching for a Better World
A democratic tech champion — Made in Europe, Made in Democracy®
Can a search engine help protect democracy, fight climate change, and respect your privacy — all at once? 💡 It turns out: yes, it can. And its name is Ecosia.
At Eurocrazy™, we believe democracy is not just about elections or laws — it’s also about how we live, how we consume, and the technologies we rely on every day. That’s why we proudly highlight companies that go beyond profit and actively strengthen democratic values.
One of the clearest examples is Ecosia, a non-profit search engine based in Berlin that is quietly — but powerfully — reshaping the internet for good.
🌍 A browser that gives back — literally
Ecosia looks like any other search engine. It’s fast, reliable, and easy to use.
But here’s what makes it different:
🌱 Every search funds reforestation across the planet
🔒 Your privacy is protected — no personal data is sold
💸 It’s a non-profit — ad revenues go to climate action, not shareholder pockets
🇩🇪 It’s fully European, based in Germany and aligned with EU transparency standards
In a world where tech giants harvest your data to sell your attention, Ecosia chooses values over volume.
Since its founding, Ecosia has helped plant over 180 million trees, restoring biodiversity, empowering local communities and fighting global warming.
🧭 Tech for democracy, not domination
At Eurocrazy™, we understand that digital tools are political tools.
Search engines are no longer neutral gateways — they shape how we see the world, how we learn, and even what we believe. That’s why it matters who owns them, how they work, and what they stand for.
Ecosia stands for:
🧵 Transparency over opacity
🌱 Sustainability over extraction
🔐 User rights over surveillance capitalism
🧑🏾🤝🧑🏼 Global justice over market domination
💥 A bold move against Big Tech
Recently, Ecosia made headlines for challenging Google Chrome in U.S. courts — urging the judge to consider transforming Chrome into a non-profit foundation dedicated to funding climate projects.
That’s not just a legal argument — it’s a visionary proposal.
A radically democratic idea that reimagines the role of tech in society.
Because why should trillions in tech revenue fuel more ads, more division, more surveillance…
When they could help heal the planet, fund open-source innovation, and empower citizens instead?
🌳 At Eurocrazy™, we believe ideas like this are not only bold — they’re necessary.
🛡️ Why Ecosia is a Champion of Democracy
We call Ecosia a democratic tech champion because it:
✅ Offers a European alternative to monopolistic platforms
✅ Uses tech to support environmental and social justice
✅ Operates with transparency, ethics and long-term purpose
✅ Aligns business with planetary and human dignity
✅ Empowers users without exploiting them
In short: it’s what the future of ethical digital capitalism could look like.
🚀 Final note: Search with purpose
At Eurocrazy™, we don’t benefit from Ecosia’s success —
But we benefit from living in a world where companies like Ecosia exist.
