Still haven’t had your fill of green search engines? Here’s another one to add to the list: Greenlinking.com. Greenlinking is a search engine wrapper that allows you to search using Google alone or you can choose to use a combination of Google, NineMSN, and Yahoo. The beauty of Greenlinking is its commitment to offsetting greenhouse gases and carbon emissions as a whole. For each regular user (someone who visits the site regularly), Greenlinking will purchase carbon credits from Carbon Planet, an Australian carbon credit retailer using revenue earned. The number of tonnes offset is shown on the side (so far there’s been 17). Try it, it’s free.

“greenlinking.com is the first green search engine set up to offset greenhouse gases for every regular user of this green search facility. The searches conducted here use the technology of the leading search engines in the world, so you can be assured that the quality of the results are unrivalled. Almost everything we do contributes to climate change by directly or indirectly causing the emission of carbon dioxide (CO2) and other greenhouse gases into the atmosphere.”

Greenlinking, like other green search engines has a noble cause. Instead of spending revenue on frivolous things, they buy carbon credits.
