The Climate Change AI Innovation Grants program supports projects that address research and deployment challenges in climate change mitigation, adaptation, and climate science by leveraging AI and machine learning, while also creating publicly available datasets and tools to catalyze further work. The program enables key partnerships that accelerate the research-to-deployment cycle, creating synergies between academic researchers, nonprofits, startups and other companies, and governmental or intergovernmental organizations. Funded by the Quadrature Climate Foundation, Schmidt Futures, and Google DeepMind, with Future Earth serving as fiscal sponsor, this is one of the few dedicated grant programs specifically targeting the intersection of AI/ML and climate change. Projects typically involve climate modeling, weather prediction, emissions monitoring, energy optimization, biodiversity monitoring, and other environmental applications of machine learning. The 2026 competition opens with a full proposal deadline of September 15, 2026. The program has grown steadily since its inception, funding 23 projects to date across diverse climate domains and geographies.
A new Partnership for Public Service report documents 118,000 science-related federal departures between September 2024 and February 2026 — Forest Service and NSF down a third, SAMHSA down 42 percent. Project grant obligations from science agencies dropped 24 percent from 2024 to 2025. On June 3, Johns Hopkins announced a $60M annual Research Resilience Fund. Here is what the data and the institutional response mean for grant applicants.
Read articleFEMA reopened the Building Resilient Infrastructure and Communities program on March 25, 2026 with $1 billion available and a July 23 close. After a year-long pause that stranded billions in prior selections, the reboot prioritizes construction-ready infrastructure with a $20 million per-project cap. Here is who qualifies, what changed, and how to compete.
