Staffordshire Moorlands District Council said it could include initiatives such as tree-planting, transport schemes or recycling projects.
The money is the latest round of funding to be made available by the council and applications are due to open in April.
Since 2021, its Community Climate Change Fund has already provided grants to about 40 groups.
Among the projects supported so far are a tree planting scheme run by Dane Valley Climate Action Group, a green arts festival run by Moorlands Climate Action and a weed and litter pick arranged by Longnor Action Group for a weed pull.
Nigel Yates, the councillor responsible for the environment, said: "By providing community-led schemes with these grants we're making sure people can take action at a very local level."
The next round of funding will be available from 1 April to 31 May.
The council said another round of funding was due to open in the autumn.
