The line graph below shows the household recycling rates in three different countries between 2005 and 2015. Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features and make comparisons where relevant.

The graph illustrates facts on regional household recycling rates from the

UK

,

France

and

Germany

for a time period of 10 years, between 2005 to 2015.

Overall

, from the beginning to the end of the period depicted, where we can observe increases and decreases, we can see that the

UK

and

Germany

had an upward trajectory as opposed to

France

, which had a downward slide.

According to

the data given, which is detailed, the

UK

's usage of sustainable ratios jumped from 20% to just over 60%. Its largest boost was between 2009 to 2011 when it spiked from 40% to 55%.

Germany

,

in particular

, demonstrated the greatest expansion over the timeframe rising steadily from 20% to almost 60%.

In contrast

,

France

apexed at 50% in 2005 and

then

steadily fell and bottomed out at 30% in 2013.

Nevertheless

, it did creep up to 40% in 2015.

Therefore

, we can see that the

UK

and

Germany

are more likely to use reprocessing,

while

France

,

although

utilising refuge conversion, is slowly on the up.
