The province put up $13,000 this year, approving 13 projects at 11 schools.
A group in Diamond Valley explored sustainable agriculture -- and Calgary students worked on water quality in wetlands.
'It's amazing to see how students and teachers are engaging and inspiring to make a difference in the world around them in a variety of ways that are meaningful to their community,' said Alberta's environment and protected areas minister Rebecca Schulz.
