Environmental factors, such as friends, family, and the media, have little influence on whether or not someone chooses to drink or not to drink. true or false?

False, the reasoning behind this is that many cultures, including our own, portray alcohol in certain ways that affect the public.

Example #1) The alcohol nature of France is incredibly social as alcohol is used as a social drink. This is very different in the United States where alcohol is typically used to get drunk, party.

Example #2) If you were out with a group of friends and they all had alcohol, it would seem appropriate for you to have some as well versus if none of your friends drink and someone brings a drink.

It is about the social norm of the group, media, and family that determines if you decide to drink or not. While you can decide to drink on your own, that would be an environmental factor for having access to alcohol.
