ecosia.org 
Ecosia is a search engine that donates 80% of its profits to non-profit organizations that focus on reforestation. It considers itself a social business, is CO2 negative and claims to support full financial transparency and protect the privacy of its users. It can be installed on laptops, phones, tablets and other devices that have access to the internet. Instead of advertising dollars going to Google, Yahoo or others, why not direct that money toward planting trees?

PlasticScore is a crowdsourced zero waste rating for restaurants. They fund the recovery of plastic waste for every sustainability review, and use the data to help restaurants improve. When downloading the app, be sure to put in the code PRP for the local non-profit, Plastic Reduction Project, who we are working with. PRP will then receive the information for the Austin area and be able to provide feedback to the local restaurants. Local Austin area restaurants include those in Cedar Park, Round Rock, Leander, etc.
