Turf and the environment

A few people have attacked the plan to turf a field in Mt. Lebanon by suggesting it is bad for the environment. Please take a minute to read these independent studies and get the rest of the story: http://www.fieldturf.com/environmental-downloads/ Interestingly, several people have pointed to studies by professors at the University of Arkansas, Michigan Stae and Missouri to suggest that artificial yturf is a bad alternative. However, each of those institutions has at least one turfed field, and most have up to three turfed facilities.
