Edwyn Mendoza's commitment to advocating for youth in Santa Clara County highlights the pressing need for safe, natural playing conditions rather than the use of controversial artificial turf.
The artificial turf deal for soccer fields at the fairgrounds is problematic due to its water consumption needs during extreme heat and its potential negative environmental impact.
Contrary to claims, artificial turf does not conserve water since it requires continuous maintenance, including the watering of fields for cooling and cleaning.
Grass fields, when managed properly, can handle heavy usage levels seen on artificial turf fields, and should be prioritized over artificial options in public spaces.
