Elsevier/Environmental Pollution: "The dark side of artificial greening: Plastic turfs as widespread pollutants of aquatic environments☆"

"Artificial turf (AT) is a surfacing material that simulates natural grass by using synthetic, mainly plastic, fibers in different shapes, sizes and properties. AT has spread beyond sports facilities and today shapes many urban landscapes, from private lawns to rooftops and public venues. Despite concerns regarding the impacts of AT, little is known about the release of AT fibers into natural environment. Here, for the first time, we specifically investigate the presence of AT fibers in river and ocean waters as major conduits and final destination of plastic debris transported by water runoff. Our sampling survey showed that, AT fibers – composed mainly of polyethylene and polypropylene – can constitute over 15% of the mesoplastics and macroplastics content, suggesting that AT fibers may contribute significantly to plastic pollution.

"Opposition is heating up in southern San Francisco over a plan to turn an open meadow at Crocker Amazon Playground into part of a youth baseball and softball complex, with critics warning it would reduce shared green space and reshape how the park is used.

Supervisor Chyanne Chen is now pushing for more community input before the $50 million proposal moves forward.

In a social media post this week, Chen said she had the backing of Mayor Daniel Lurie to revisit the project, funded jointly by the San Francisco Giants Community Fund and the city’s Recreation and Parks Department.

'We know that the renovation project will transform Crocker into even more of a citywide asset than it is today, but that can’t come at the expense of the needs of our neighborhood park users,' Chen said in a statement to the Chronicle. 'As currently designed, the renovation plan would convert a shared, multi-generational and multi-ethnic public space into a specialized fenced-in facility serving a specific user group.'"
