Welcome to EarthLab

TheRemFest is excited to introduce EarthLab—our newest and most exciting expansion to TheRemFest platform. EarthLab isn't another conference. It isn't another classroom. And it certainly isn't another day of sitting through PowerPoint presentations.

EarthLab is a full day of live, hands-on learning where environmental professionals can experience the technologies, equipment, and field practices that drive our industry today.

Whether you're new to the industry or have decades of experience, EarthLab provides an opportunity to see, touch, operate, ask questions, and learn directly from the experts who develop, use, and support today's environmental technologies.

Learn by Doing

TheRemFest-EarthLab is designed around one simple philosophy:

The best way to learn is by getting your hands dirty.

Throughout the day, participants will rotate through interactive demonstration stations led by industry professionals, manufacturers, consultants, laboratories, drilling contractors, remediation specialists, and regulators.

You'll leave with practical knowledge you can immediately apply in the field.
