The graph below shows average carbon dioxide emissions per person in the United Kingdom, Sweeden, Italy and Portugal between 1967 and 2007. Summarize the information by selecting and reporting the main features and make comparison where relevant.
The line graph illustrates the amount of carbon dioxide produced per person in (United
Kingdom
, Sweden, Italy, and Portugal) over 26 years
, from 1967 to 2007. Units are measured in metric tonnes
.
Overall
, there was a reduction in the production
of carbon dioxide in the United Kingdom
and Sweden over the period
given, while
for Italy and Portugal, there was a rise in the same period
. It is clear that
during the whole period
, the United Kingdom
was the highest producer of CO2 among other countries.
With regards to the amount of CO2 produced, it began at around 11 metric tonnes
for the United Kingdom
in 1967 and decreased slightly over 40 years
to approach 9 metric tonnes
in 2007. Similarly
, Sweden produced 9 metric tonnes
of CO2 in 1967, and 10 years
later it hit a peak at approximately 10.5 metric tonnes
of CO2 production
, which dropped rapidly within another 10 years
to end 7 metric tonnes
in 1987. In the final years
, there was a slow reduction in production
, which attained 5 metric tonnes
at the end
of the period
.
On the other hand
, Italy started production
of CO2 emissions at nearly 4 metric tonnes
in 1967 and increased gradually over the next ten years
to almost 6 metric tonnes
. After that, there was a steady change in the remains of the period
to accomplish just under 8 metric tonnes
in 2007. Likewise
, approximately 1 metric tonne of carbon dioxide was produced by Portugal in the first year; after that, the figure increased mildly over 30 years
to stand the
highest point of around 7 metric Change preposition
at the
tonnes
in 1997, and in the final years
, the figure remained constant at nearly 8 metric tonnes
