On this 49th Earth Day, it is our great honor to announce the University Sustainability Fund grants approved for 2019. The Fund provides grants to students, faculty, and staff for the implementation of projects that will improve sustainability on campus or in the local community. This funding cycle marked a landmark year for the Sustainability Fund, with more grant money distributed than ever before: a grand total of $450,633. It also included the largest grant ever allocated for a single project: $150,000 for the Ocean Friendly Campus: UMD Plastic Waste Reduction, Phase 2. Another landmark project includes Eliminating the Climate Impact of Undergraduate Student Commuting Emissions. Congratulations to the award recipients and a Happy Earth Day to all!
