One Tree at a Time.
Ecosia @ UM
In our vision for UM, we emphasize its role as an educational institution that brings forward social responsibility through education and research. However, social responsibility can - and should - also be implemented through socially responsible operations. That is why we proposed and successfully implemented Ecosia as a standard browser on all computers managed by the UM library. This includes Athena Desktop. We are now working on bringing Ecosia to all faculties’ computers so our searches will plant trees.
