A Web Awash in Vodka Ads, Promoting Moderation(The New York Times)

According to the "A Web Awash in Vodka Ads, Promoting Moderation(The New York Times)", WHILE there may not be sufficient data to indicate whether the economy is driving people to drink, major marketers of alcoholic beverages are maintaining or even stepping up campaigns to encourage drinking in moderation.


My Reaction:
Compared with the past, people drink more beverages, such as tea, coffee, wines and so on in their daily lives. They think they are necessities. In other words, they cannot live without them. Drinking a little bit is ok while drinking in a great amount may not be good for people in many ways. For example, drinking a lot of wine causes liver cancer and people‘s mind is not usually clear. Another example is that drinking a lot of tea everyday results in your yellow teeth since the materials easily dye the color of our teeth. Although consumers buying more products can benefit the growing of economy, you really need to think about your health conditions, the financial income whether it can afford your pay or not and if it is necessary to do it.


Now, some organizations want to raise some campaigns or activities to persuade people to drink beverages in moderation. The activities include text messages which can inform people in time to drink less and many relevant ads in the website. We can see they put a lot of efforts to inform people about the news. Therefore, I think we can try to accept their instruction and realize them. Maybe they are really good for us. (242 words)
