[edit] Dot Eco Top Level Domain

Dot Eco is an organization dedicated to promoting the acceptance and implementation of the .eco top level domain, and is backed by leading ecological and philanthropic groups, environmentally conscious high-profile individuals, and leading scientific voices.

Dot Eco has partnered with Al Gore and the Alliance for Climate Protection to bring the “.eco” top level domain to life. The Alliance’s mission is to persuade the American people—and people elsewhere in the world—of the importance and urgency of adopting and implementing effective and comprehensive solutions for the climate crisis. Over 2 Million people have joined the Alliance’s “We can solve it” effort.

.eco is the collective vision of a number of people in the internet, movie, environmental and scientific fields. We all share the same sense that “.eco” is an important step in the evolution of the Internet, and that we must carefully define its future, for the sake of the entire environmental movement.

The primary goal of .ECO is to generate significant funding for the environmental movement, specifically to promote awareness and policies to fight the deterioration of our climate. By charter and design, more than 50% of .ECO profits must go toward environmental causes. In practice, more than 57% is already committed to specific organizations, and this number is expected to increase. We estimate that within a few years of launch, .ECO will be making an annual contribution of millions of dollars to environmental organizations that can make a difference.
