Green is the New Crimson

For over a decade, Harvard has been committed to changing the culture of how we work, live and learn to confront the challenges of climate change and environmental sustainability. Hundreds of students, staff and faculty through the University are dedicated to implementing innovative, economically-viable solutions that reduce waste, cut energy use and conserve resources.

The Harvard Office for Sustainability (OFS) works as a catalyst for a change by partnering with faculty, students and staff at all Schools and administrative units to foster a culture of sustainability and use the campus as a living laboratory for innovation. OFS oversees the implementation of Harvard's sustainability goals and convenes the community to share best practices and develop new programs and policies that strive to serve as replicable models to inspire our students and future leaders, and seek to influence the higher education, government and business sectors.
