I asked a college girl why she didn't eat meat and she said “it was to save the rainforest”. When I asked her where the rain forest was located, she didn't know. When I asked her how not eating meat saved the rain forest, she changed the subject.It reminds me of some stupid TV show I watched a few years back, beauties and nerds, something like that.
Couples competed. Couples composed of a male nerd and a female beauty. Each couple brought together just for the show, didn't know each other previously.
The episode I watched had a segment on the environment. Each beauty had to give a lecture about the environment and received an advance coaching session from her respective nerd.
The audience got to watch the coaching sessions.
With one couple, the nerd gave a pretty straight-forward logical presentation to his partner, prepared her as best he could. When she got up there she got all flustered and mumbled something about the environment being in big trouble and that's why we have to recycle. Her partner had never mentioned the word recycle. But it's the only thing she could think of, and it had nothing to do with anything he had prepped her on but it was the only thing about "environment" she could remember.
