OpenTabs: Save trees by surfing the web Extension

🌳 How it works
OpenTabs uses a search bar on the new-tab page to enable users to save trees simply by searching the web.

🎯 Our mission
With OpenTabs, we made an active decision to save existing trees rather than planting new ones. You might be wondering why this matters or why we made this decision when other well-known companies have chosen to plant new ones. To put it simply, compelling studies show that planting trees won’t be enough to tackle climate change and that efforts on rainforest conservation lead to a more sustainable and lasting change.

🌎 How it helps
Using the OpenTabs new tab homepage search bar for your internet searches, enables you to automatically support a global community of people working hard to conserve and restore the Earth's forests.

⚙️Settings and Features
• Fast search results
• Beautiful backgrounds
• Trees saved counter
• List of your favorite websites
• Interesting search suggestions
• Affiliate disclosure popup on website bookmarks

📋 Terms
By clicking \"add to Chrome\", I accept and agree to installing the OpenTabs Search extension and setting the Chrome New Tab search provider as described by the services in Terms of Use https://www.opentabs.org/terms/ and Privacy Policy https://www.opentabs.org/privacy/.

Daniel Roda (ID: 0000005caabe1bba) Voted 3 ★ - Updated 07/27/2023 Ya no funciona, o al menos eso parece, al menos desde marzo de 2023 It no longer works, or at least it seems that way, at least since March 2023

Oliver C (ID: 000000049c9f2af2) Voted 2 ★ - Updated 11/07/2022 Sounds like a great idea but it doesn't work on Opera. I can't use New Tab Start Page to make it work because I can't find the URL, and I can't use keyboard shortcuts either because that just doesn't work, period.

Alterra Mari Reyes (ID: 000000395b39e1a6) Voted 3 ★ - Updated 10/18/2022 i rate it 3 stars since even though i logged in my account my account wasnt logged in and when i tried logging it in the whole website just crashed so i needed to remove the whole extension

Crystal Chen (ID: 00000011b07fda8c) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 09/25/2022 I saved lots of trees but then it broke so after reinstalling it it worked again but broke quickly please solve i'm removing for now. Great concept though and it was very fun while it lasted.
