Easy on the Evian CO2 Calculations

Choosing tap water over bottled could save around 0.22 kg CO2 per litre (see here for full calculation and assumptions).

The CO2 values in the slider have been averaged over a month, and split equally over the four data points, calculated as follows:

Q. How regularly do you ask for tap water instead of the tasteless, overpriced and environmentally disastrous bottled stuff?

Endpoints:

Never = 0 kg

Always -  (0.22) x (7 days) x (4 weeks)) = 6.16 kg CO2

Midpoints:

A bit - (6.16) x (1/3) = 2.05 kg CO2

A lot - (6.16) x (2/3) = 4.11 kg CO2
