On June 26, 2020 the Rotary Foundation Trustees and Rotary International board of Directors added a new area of focus: supporting the environment. Environmental projects will be eligible for global grants in 2021; in the meantime and at any time all Area of Focus projects should be considered in light of their impact on the environment. A Rotary Action Group for Environmental Sustainability - ESRAG - was established about three years ago and is a great place to learn more about environmental concerns and to make contact with like minded people. Within District 5050 four Rotarians, members of ESRAG, have formed the nucleus of a group to promote and encourage development of environmental activities by individuals and clubs and to promote partnerships which will help us achieve these ends.
We also encourage Rotarians to join ESRAG and our District 5050 group. For more information please contact: Allen Stockbridge, Jack Rae, Michel Vekved, or Raj Rajagopal.
Contact Allen Stockbridge to schedule a Presentation on ESRAG and Rotary Climate Action Teams for your Club.
