On 30 November 2012, information began to circulate regarding a plan to replace the grass of University of Toronto's Back Campus with artificial turf. Concerns have been raised about:

• The transparency of the governance process that led to the approval of the project
• The impact of restricted access to Back Campus, both for members of the University of Toronto and for the wider community
• Potential sustainability and environmental impact
• The permanent destruction of an irreplaceable heritage landscape, central to the precious and dwindling green space of downtown Toronto
• Project Description and Response
