Description
Ontario is committed to protecting human health and the natural environment. Projects that are eligible for support focus on: increasing environmental restoration and remediation activities which repair environmental harm; resilient communities and local solutions to environmental issues.
Funding is available for two different kinds of environmental improvement projects. These include projects that focus on:
- Increasing environmental restoration and remediation activities which repair environmental harm. For example:
- planting trees, shrubs or plants to help mitigate and adapt to climate change
- rebuilding fish habitat and creating fish spawning beds
- stabilizing stream banks and creating buffer strips to reduce nutrient run-off
- restoring streams to improve habitat and water quality
- Resilient communities and local solutions to environmental issues. For example:
- improving the resilience of natural ecosystems by restoring wetlands and preserving areas of significant environmental and ecological importance
- installing rain gardens to reduce the risk of flooding and help communities adapt to climate change
