Luckily, the Begley-Cohen Test isn't that kind of test. Instead, it is patterned off of the Bechdel-Wallace Test which measures female representation in film and television.
The Begley and Cohen of test namesake are environmentalist and actor Ed Begley Jr. and Dianna Cohen, Co-Founder and CEO of Plastic Pollution Coalition. The point of the Begley-Cohen Test is to analyze media for their use of single-use plastic. A movie or show passes the test if no single-use plastics are shown OR if they are shown, they are portrayed as problematic and discuss the environmental matter.![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi-Cv9uuNMY1AJTmQABqZs6kUOUPkUIhS5S2-USlL8hy7Jjg7x0KNsW6489qkZO0WSw9VmqpOE9M5DoWDrYGYSrhwk2W75EZRVAjWdaafFfqg3ddpdCs_L3OmB7a_xvwtp3WuArtsv_CmwGTSwLwI7fl4DBZGmHlHEi3s4ivI2VGbJMTPPJp0YF7J8-/w200-h196/Screen%20Shot%202022-10-10%20at%203.06.27%20PM.png)
