Clothing?

Though corny at times, I'm naturally right. (some fabrics are made from corn fibers)

You can't beat the fact that less makes me light. (the less you wear, the lighter you feel)

Go without me, and you cannot survive, (you'd freeze or burn to death or die of exposure)

But make a few changes - I'll see you at five. (most people change clothes when they get home from work)

Interesting thoughts, but not where I'm going with this one. :)

Alternative ("greener") energy sources

Corny (ethynol)

less makes me light (energy-saver lights or solar power)

go without me, you cannot survive (many would perish without power, not to mention the greenhouse effect w/conventional power sources)

make a few changes (switching to a greener source of energy)

I'll see you at five (stumped, sorry)

Sugars

Corn syrup, high-fructose corn syrup are common sweeteners due to their sugar content (glucose & fructose).

Naturally-occurring sugars are in the D-, or "right-hand" configuration.

Sugar Beets are a common source of table sugar (sucrose).

To make a 'light' claim on a food package (in the U.S.), must reduce the calories by one-third - one way is to reduce the sugar content.

Human body requires sugar to function.

Ferment sugar to alcohol for happy hour.

And the title - 'simple' sugars
