I've never given much thought to artificial turf.

That is, until I read a recent article published by today's podcast guest, Abbie.

Artificial turf, created initially by Monsanto and called ChemGrass (by this point, you probably have guessed how I feel about this topic), was perhaps made with good intentions.

Kids can play sports throughout the winter.

It seems to be good for the environment and doesn't need watering or chemical spraying.

In today's episode, our guest explained that the artificial turf is made from old car tires, forever chemicals, and plastic.

If your kids play soccer on turf, you’ve likely noticed how hot it can be on the field. In fact, turf can be thirty degrees hotter than natural grass. Studies have shown that plastic and chemical vapors are released even more in extreme weather conditions, and these chemicals can come into contact with our kids' skin.

This episode is essential for any parent whose child plays on turf. Abbie shares her top four tips for protecting your kids from these harmful chemicals.

Please share this episode with all the parents and grandparents in your life.
