This graph below gives information from a 2008 report about consumption energy in the USA since 1980 with projections until 2030. Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features and make comparison where relevant
The provided line chart illustrates the

demonstrate relatively stable patterns. It is striking to note that Use synonyms
petroleum
and Use synonyms

in the USA.
In 1980, fossil Use synonyms

, with Use synonyms
petroleum
and Use synonyms

leading at approximately 35 Use synonyms

and natural gas at about 16 Use synonyms
quadrillion
. Over the subsequent decades, coal surpassed natural gas twice, first in 1990 and again in 2005. Despite fluctuations, all three types of fossil Use synonyms
