Public Lab is an online/inventor/activist/techno community where people can learn how to investigate environmental concerns using inexpensive, do-it-yourself (DIY) techniques. Once a month they host OpenHour, an interactive seminar hosted by the Public Lab Community both online and in person.
OpenHour will be hosted this coming Monday, February 1st at 1:00pm EST on theOpenHour page. The topic of this OpenHour is “Landfills: Mapping and Monitoring.” For this OpenHour we will be joined by:
