Help TurfMutt battle extreme weather

Hey, kids! TurfMutt needs your help! The environmental villains, Heat Freak, Dr. Runoff, Carbon Creep and Dust Demon are stirring up serious trouble. Whenever extreme weather hits, these bad guys are sure to also be around.

But you can help!

Work with your parents to download TurfMutt’s extreme weather activity sheet. By completing this worksheet, you can join TurfMutt and the Outdoor Powers by understanding how living landscapes can help lessen the effects of extreme weather.

You see, the right plants can help stop the bad guys in their tracks. Download and complete the sheet to learn how our green space helps control dust, flooding and effects of heat islands. You’ll also learn how grass and other living plants help control the greenhouse effect.
