The first chart shows how energy is used in an average Australian household. THe second chart shows the greenhouse gas emissions which ressult from this energy use.

The pie chart demonstrates the

energy

use in the Australian household and the

greenhouse

gas

emissions

produced in different ways. The most important form of

energy

consumption

is the heating process, with 72% of

energy

consumption

attributed to

this

way. The general heating process and water heating account for 42% and 30% respectively,

while

refrigeration

consumption

is about 7 %.It is followed by another two causes, lighting and cooling, contributing to 4% and 2% respectively. The remaining 15% is caused by other appliances. We can see from the second graph that the amount of

greenhouse

gas

emissions

produced by each method doesn't depend on its

energy

consumption

.Water heating is responsible for 32% of

greenhouse

gas

emissions

,accounting for the largest share of

emissions

. The second biggest producer of

gas

emissions

is "other appliances", contributing to 28%,which is about the same as the

emissions

of general heating and refrigerators combined.

By comparison

, lighting and cooling emit minimal amounts, with 11% of

gas

emissions

in total.

Overall

,

although

general heating uses the most

energy

,it emits relatively little

greenhouse

gas

.
