Sustainable Smith - Geothermal Energy Project

Did you know Smith will be carbon neutral by 2030? A large part of how we're getting there is by installing geothermal energy on campus, which will reduce our carbon emissions by 90%. Learn more about how geothermal energy works and what to expect from the construction process in this video created by students Corinna Davis '23 and Hildana Shiferaw '25.
