Det finns en miljöpolicy från september 2020 som antagits av Rotary International. Läs den gärna – den skapar tydlighet kring vad miljöprojektet ska syfta till. De skriver även vad miljöprojekten inte ska syfta till:
”The Rotary Foundation considers the following stand-alone activities to be outside the scope of the area of focus and not eligible for global grant funding:
- Community beautification projects
- Single-event training or education sessions
- Single-event river, beach, or habitat clean-ups
- Tree plantings that are not part of a larger ecological framework and strategy
holistic project design that aims to achieve specific and measurable positive environmental impacts - Nature therapy
- Food distribution programs
- Outdoor recreational activities
- Projects that involve only building infrastructure, purchasing equipment, or training in how to use that equipment”
