The bar below shows the amount of waste produced by three companies over a period of 15 years.

The given graph highlights information about the
amount
of
waste
which was produced by three organizations over a fifteen-
year
period.
Overall
, it can be seen that the amounts of two companies'
waste
in the name of A and B decreased over the period in question
while
company C increased its misuse
amount
year
by
year
. Looking at the details, company C was the
last
one with 4
tonnes
in the first
year
and five years later in 2005, the
amount
reached 6
tonnes
but continued to increase and hit a peak with 10
tonnes
in the
last
year
which was the most produced
waste
in 2015. If we look at band B, it was in the middle of the list with 8
tonnes
in 2000 and continued to be over 9 in the following
year
but
then
experienced a dramatic decrease and hit a trough with 3
tonnes
in 2015. As regards the
last
company A, it is obvious that its
waste
amount
was at the top with 12
tonnes
in 2000 and it went down gradually and saw 9
tonnes
in 2010 but did not stop until 2015 with 8
