| 0:00.0 | Hello and welcome to this week's ESG Explains. |
| 0:06.7 | Yes, I have a new name for my podcast. |
| 0:10.2 | I think that's all right. |
| 0:12.0 | Any feedback is very welcome. |
| 0:14.3 | Anyway, this week is very exciting, just like every other podcast week, obviously. |
| 0:20.4 | But I have shown it on, who's one of my team you coaches. |
| 0:24.8 | And I will delve into that quickly soon, quickly in a minute. |
| 0:31.0 | Because I want to go over some questions that came up this week first, and then I will |
| 0:35.4 | fire on into the chat that we had. |
| 0:41.3 | If you're thinking, ESG, you sound a bit weird. I don't know if I do or not, but it's five o'clock in the morning and I don't normally |

| 1:31.2 | compared to high fat mayonnaise, it's quite an easy, simple way to save yourself, |
| 1:35.5 | depending on how much mayo you have quite a lot of calories. |
| 1:38.8 | But if you're the kind of person who, I don't know, really likes ketchup and you're having |
| 1:43.7 | it with every meal, then getting a low |
| 1:46.1 | fat alternative or a lower calorie alternative is going to save you a fair amount of calories |
| 1:51.7 | over the week. Now, when it comes to the cooking spray example, what I would say is yes, do that, |
