Ecocho - The environmental search engine
Hi guys, I found http://www.ecocho.com/, a search engine which uses Yahoo / Google search but per 1000 hits it plants a tree so we all can feel like we contribute something to the environment

bad news:
I just read this (german) article: http://www.heute.de/ZDFheute/inhalt/2/0 ... 58,00.html
It says that Ecocho teeters on the brink of collapse, because Google leaves the project. Ecocho rewards people for searching with Ecocho and this violates Google's strict rules of advertising.
