A search against climate change

"Ecobuscador is a search engine powered by Google that helps combat climate change.

Ecobuscador saves energy because the colors he uses are entirely of dark shades. In a monitor, most energy is used to show the lighter colors. Using dark shades is reduced energy use and emits less CO2 into the atmosphere. In January 2007 published a study showing that only changing the wallpaper google to black would save 750 megawatts-hours per year. "

So the creators describe Ecobuscador its search tool. Ecobuscador is an environmentally conscious search engine. It has a directory of websites related to the environment. Additionally, you can add as search engine in the navigation bar both Firefox and Internet Explorer 7 (and possibly Opera, but I have not tested)

For further reference, you can consult a Wikipedia article.

Hello, I would like to know if these guys use the Google Adsense program and if they do, where comes the money received?

Regards

Mr. Jonathan Ecobuscador now has Google Adsense advertising, like its web bioambiental.cl and scarce revenues dedicated to pay for accommodation costs.

However, the website is still in a growth phase and are looking for entities engaged in the environmental struggle to donate the extra revenue obtained after meeting the maintenance of the site.

On my site it is clear that if someone clicks on the advertising is because she wants to, it is advertising when needed, is visible, not hidden behind any method or point out that clicking on these links or using that form people will collaborate to an environmental end. That is the estimated differences.

Greetings.

Sir. In Ecobuscador sponsored ads exist only in the section of search results and these are inserted by Google, without any control on our part. The remaining sections of the web (image search, video search and directory websites) are free of patronage.

At no time conceals the nature of the ads and these are clearly highlighted in a frame different from the rest of the search results.

Before you accuse falsely, should review its own policy of ad positioning, which places no Desripción texts, as a menu just below your navigation menu. This practice confuses the visitor and invites him to think that the ads are part of a submenu of web browsing. Such techniques are sation by the Google Adsense program.

Furthermore, we congratulate you on the subject of your website and we appreciate the fact to have settled on our own.

A greeting.
