Abstract/Contents: | Discusses the potential dangers of synthetic turf, explaining that "synthetic surfaces, whether for horse tracks or playings fields, have known benefits, but no one yet knows enough about potential detriments." Suggests that "[sports field managers] need to support the organizations that support the [turf] industry. [They] need to be confident when [they] have accurate information, and offer it to the media...It seems that most of the media is looking for bad news." |
