The first chart below shows how energy is used in an average Australian household. The second chart shows the greenhouse gas emission which result from this energy use. Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant.

The first pie chart illustrates the average proportion of

energy

that is

consumed in Australian households,

whereas

the second pie chart reveals the figures for

emissions

of

greenhouse

gases

resulting from the mentioned

energy

usage.

Overall

, it is clearly observable that the heating and

water

heating groups account for the largest and second-largest amounts of

energy

consumption in Australia, respectively.

Moreover

, it can be seen that

water

heating and cooling emit the highest and lowest amounts of

greenhouse

gases

, respectively. Among all categories, heating accounts for the largest amount of

energy

usage, using 42% of all

energy

.

Furthermore

,

water

heating, which is placed in second place, consumes twice as much

energy

as the other appliance category (15%). It is worth noting that the

energy

consumption of other categories is insignificant compared with these three groups. With regard to the amount of

greenhouse

gases

that are released, the proportion of

emissions

from

water

heating is the largest, which is around one-third of all

emissions

.

This

is approximately equal to the emission of the other appliance method (28%).

Moreover

, the figure for the amount of

greenhouse

gases

that the heating emits is approximately equal to that of the refrigeration. The figures for the

emissions

by other groups, being less than 10%, can be ignored.
