Ye Also, if you don’t know, Jesus will fulfill you more than anything in this world, I speak from experience (from when i did Romans 10:9-13), he loves you and wants to be in a meaningful (not romantic) relationship with you. :) “that if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed. For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him. For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” ‭‭Romans‬ ‭10‬:‭9‬-‭13‬ ‭KJV‬‬ “and saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel.” ‭‭Mark‬ ‭1‬:‭15‬ ‭KJV‬‬ If you want proof that Jesus and the Bible are true look a documentary called “Ron Wyatt discoveries 2022” on KZbin and a KZbin channel called Expedition Bible. They both examine archeological sites and discoveries that prove the Bible, and even reference secular sources. (Just don’t convert to 7th day Adventism after watching the documentary) And lastly if you don’t know the gospel and want to be saved search up “abc’s of Salvation Teenmissions” on Google and it should be the first or second result. When you click on it read the whole thing, and do what it says and have faith in Jesus while you are doing it, do not doubt, and if it is hard for you to do what it says, ask Jesus to help you, have faith that he will, and *he will.* God Bless :)

I had the privilege to meet her during my time in Kenya, she made me plant a tree every time we saw each other...i remember the day where her image was on all poles of Mombasa road, i felt so proud of her, for the country, the continent and its amazing women. We miss you Wangari, u inspired millions of people around the world and no matter what old men in politics say, u brought down Mois government with a handfull of enthusiastic people!

[@jes_christ]

I bought a couple of shirts from their shop - each planting 20 trees :) The shirts is another great way to share awareness about Ecosia.

[@user-fw9nb6pk9m]

Ecosia doesn't accept donations. Apart from buying ecosia's tee shirts, you can also donate directly to the projects that ecosia are funding. I really encourage you to do this if you want to help.

[@Ecosia]

Hi there, thanks for watching our video. Thank you, too, for wanting to help further. Spreading the word (about Ecosia, but also the climate crisis) is the best help we can get! Perhaps you have heard of the "Ecosia on Campus" movement? It's a movement of students that are trying to install Ecosia across their university campus. Many Ecosia users are doing the same at school, or at their workplace. Here's a link to their instagram account, for inspiration: instagram.com/ecosiaoncampus/ Perhaps you can become part of the movement? Cheers and greetings from our lockdown in Berlin!

Awesome target! 🤗 Such rate would mean 30 MILLION trees A DAY just with current number of unique Ecosia users! Basically enough to counter deforestation all by itself! Cheers :)

That's ambitious! I aim to plant 10 trees a month, but it's going in jumps and skips: sometimes I make a thousand searches in a single night, sometimes I barely use the internet for weeks on end. Still, it's going well, and I've done over 8000 searches since february 2020
