The Frost Center

Wellesley’s hub for environmental engagement. Working to catalyze thoughtful solutions to environmental and sustainability challenges. Just one part of our commitment not just to helping our students but to helping the planet. Our students have used Wellesley’s campus as a living laboratory with projects that include building birdhouses from recycled pallets, constructing benches from fallen trees, conducting interdisciplinary research on Wellesley’s water resources, and leading a winter birdwatching walk. All part of a campus-wide effort to create a more sustainable community (and world!). And our progress? Well, we’ll be carbon neutral by 2040—we’ve already cut our emissions 50% since 2010!
