  How it works

Forestle is a *"green Internet search engine"*. We use our advertising
revenue to protect endangered rainforest regions in order to keep our
worlds most precious ecosystems intact and fight global warming.

Forestle earns advertising revenue from clicks on *"sponsored links"*,
which are displayed next to the normal search results in our search
engine. These sponsored links are delivered by our partner *Google*.

*Note:* Only click on sponsored links if you are really interested in
them. You harm Forestle, Google and the advertising companies with
artificial clicking.

<http://www.nature.org/> *All of our income* at www.Forestle.org (minus
administrative costs) is donated to our partner The Nature Conservancy
<http://www.nature.org/>. The Nature Conservancy uses this money in
their adopt an acre program
<http://www.nature.org/joinanddonate/adoptanacre/> in order to sustain
the rainforests.


  Forestle in numbers

It costs around $200(US) to buy one acre (4,047 m² or 4,840 yd²) of rain
forest. On average Forestle earns around 0.5 US cent per search.

Thus you can save about 0.1 square meter (0.11 yd²) of rainforest with
*every search *at Forestle. This area roughly equals the surface of your
*computer screen*.

An average Internet user does about 1,000 searches annually. This means
you can save more than *100 square meters (109 yd²) of rainforest every
year* by using Forestle!


  Forestle can make a difference

The more people use our search engine the more rainforest area we can
save. See what Forestle users can achieve *every year* just by searching
the Internet:
