What Parents Need to Know
About Battleground Earth: Ludacris vs. Tommy Lee
Parents need to know that this is a fairly standard reality program done up in green wrapping. Theoretically, the challenges are designed to promote eco-friendly habits -- or at least promote the idea of making changes that will benefit the environment -- but they sometimes seem to be mostly for show, with little evidence that any of the participants actually make adjustments to how they live. The teams often convene for strategy sessions and post-event celebrations at bars and nightclubs, so expect a fair amount of drinking. There's also some bleeped swearing and a bit of flirtatious behavior.

Does enlisting celebrities make eco-friendly habits more appealing? Why or why not? Do you think the celebs in this series are sincere in their efforts to change their own habits -- and the world -- or are they just along for a fun ride? If the latter, why would they want to be on this show?
