It drives my mother crazy that I won’t take a multi-vitamin. The woman raised me on a steady diet of Ring Dings<\/a> and Yoo-hoos<\/a> and now she knows what’s best for my health.<\/p>\n

I get the mantra every time she visits: “You’re run-down, you don’t get enough sleep, you need to take a multi-vitamin.”<\/p>\n

You must use less energy!”\u009d The commanding tone of environmental advocates is certainly understandable. Climate change is a critical issue and there is an urgent need to address the problem.
