About This Microchallenge
The Environmental Solutions Initiative (ESI) is MIT’s Institute-wide effort to address climate change and other environmental challenges of global import. ESI research programs unite MIT faculty with communities and policymakers through four high-impact areas, including: Arts and Climate, Cities and Climate, Mining and the Circular Economy, and Natural Climate Solutions. The group also prioritizes climate education through the environment and sustainability (E&S) minor and Climate Justice Instructional Toolkit (CJIT).
*If you do not see a particular fund listed, you can donate on the MIT giving site and still be counted in the MIT 24-Hour Challenge.
