Thoughts on Ecosia Search Engine?

Upvotes

If you dont know, Ecosia is a search engine that uses ad revenue to generate money for tree planting in different countries (like Madagascar or Brazil). It is verified at legit, but theres a lot of mixed opinions on the sustainability and survival of these trees. Does anyone have experience, knowledge, or opinions on it? I just want to know if yall think it is sustainable.

Post Secondary choice, need a second opinion

Upvotes

Hello im 18 and im currently enrolled in a conservation biology program and Fleming college in Ontario Canada, its my first semester. i know its still a ways out but im very unsure weather to pursue a Bsc of science after college or go do another year or 2 for a GIS certificate. here in Canada from what ive heard from people i know practicality is favored for getting your foot in the door in my area in environmental science and thats why i chose college over uni for my first years.

My 2 years in college is fully paid for through a RESP witch im grateful for, but likely would not cover 4 years at uni after. so im torn between Uni. Working, or Maybe a 1-2 GIs program post grad

any advice is helpful, i need more knowledgeable persons two sense thanks!!!
