.eco

.eco is a top-level domain (TLD). It was proposed in ICANN's new generic top-level domain (gTLD) program and became available to the general public on April 25, 2017. The registry is advised by a council of organizations.

The .eco domain is unique in that it requires a two-stage activation process. After registering a .eco domain, the domain is registered and placed on a 'hold' status. Registrants are then sent an activation email. This email invites registrants to walk-through a simple process in which they make a public pledge: "We pledge to support positive change for the planet and to be honest when sharing information on environmental actions." registrants are also required to select a number of sustainable development goals that they want to work towards achieving. The pledge and priorities are amalgamated at https://www.profiles.eco. This allows any member of the public to identify who is behind a particular .eco domain.
