The two graphs show the main sources of energy in the USA in the 1980s and the 1990s. 

 Write a report for a university lecturer describing the changes which occurred.
The two pie charts depict the USA's main
energy
sources in 1980 and 1900.In evident that there are five
energy
sources which as oil, natural gas, coal, hydroelectric
power
and nuclear
power
. Looking from an
overall
perspective, it is readily apparent that in both years oil was the most
energy
source
while
hydroelectric was the least
energy
source
. Looking at the details, we can see that the main
energy
source
in the USA was oil which accounted for 42% in 1980 when compared to after 10 years it significantly decreased by about 33% respectively.
Moreover
, natural gas in 1980 where about 26% but in 1990 it slightly decreased to 25%
In addition
, as can be observed from the pie charts coal was 22% in 1980 when the next decade proportion accounted for 27% respectively.Even though,coal was the only
energy
source
which has increased in 1990 with compared to 1980.
Although
, nuclear
power
witnessed a percentage of about 5% in 1980
but
Remove the conjunction

show examples
in 1990 it increased to 5% which was 10% in 1990.
Furthermore
, we can see that hydroelectric
power
only remains no change in the proportion which is 5%.
