The graph below shows average carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions per person in the United Kingdoms, Sweden, Italy and Portugal between 1967 and 2007 Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant.

The provided line graph elucidates the information on carbon dioxide emissions among four different nations over four decades counted in tonnes.

Overall

, it can be seen that over the period as a whole, a significant number of emissions rose in all two countries, despite some deflation occurring in the remaining states. Of the four countries on the graph, the proportion of carbon dioxide emissions which the United Kingdom stood at just over 10 tonnes.

Furthermore

, we can see that Sweden’s emission rate jumped steadily from well over 8 tons in 1967 to approximately 10.5 by 1977,

while

the United Kingdom’s value dropped slightly to around 10.7 tons.

In addition

to

this

, the proportion of Sweden and the United Kingdom reached around 5.4 and 8.7 in 2007. Moving on now to consider the rest, the chart reveals that there has been a sudden jump from just over 4 to above 6 tons in Italy,

whereas

Portugal witnessed a slight increase to just under 2.5 tonnes. Eventually, those countries grew gradually to roughly 7.5 and 5.5

at the end

of the period.
