Artificial turf is having a moment lately, but it’s not good.
More and more municipalities are banning or considering banning the use of this always-green turf, because it’s not great for the environment.
There’s increasing concern that the runoff from artificial grass is toxic, containing chemicals and heavy metals that can contaminate waterways, soil and air. The pushback from environmentalists and community residents is growing.
Is it time to ditch your synthetic turf? How do you change fake grass to real grass?
