But they are pretty clear about that. Also, how is that worse than Google or bing? It's not a dream sure, but its a lot better than your money going to Google

they are not "clear about that". I can see they removed it now but for the longest time the main page had a banner saying "every search plants a tree" and also an actual counter which went up by one every time you made a search -- which was misleading, because it wasn't every "search", because you would have to click on an ad, and it wasn't "every", because it took several clicks on an ad to actually contribute an equivalent of a tree
