Where are these trees being planted?

It's not as simple as it seems Ecosia uses Yahoo! and Bing to return the search results, both of which are carbon neutral, but Google has been doing the same for over a decade and is doing the most in terms of carbon offsetting. Yahoo! and Bing have yet to power servers with renewable energy sources. Google does and has been decreasing carbon emissions year on year.

Madagascar, Peru and Indonesia

It only plants trees if you click on the add as opposed to the links.
