Lots of trees planted thanks to Ecosia search engine at UM
The use of the Ecosia at UM has increased substantially since this search engine has been added to the Student Desktop.
As Ecosia uses 80% or more of its profits to help non-profit organisations that focus on reforestation, the use of this search engine at UM has also led to the planting of a lot of trees. To be exact, a total of 321956 searches have been made and 4445 trees have been planted.
