This piece sheds light on a question that many schools share today, which is better turf or grass? This Piece starts out with a solid introduction into the question and avoids the question of which is greener for about the first half of the piece. This is good because it shows they are looking at all the sides of this question and not only the question of which one is more environmentally safe. The get many testimonials from people asking this question and the answers are nice and varied. They asked a staff of MIT all of these questions and he quickly shows that the answer to this question is not as easy as it seems. He does discuss playability and the longer use of turf but it would have been nice if he talked about price. When they reveal the facts of which is greener it is surprising at first but quickly makes sense after a brief explanation. This is a great piece to listen to if your feet have ever touched a football field and you wondered this question, I know I will never look at grass the same again.
