The graph below shows the three different kinds of emission sources of greenhouse gas in the UK. Summarize the information by selecting and reporting the amin features and make comparisons where relevant.
The chart illustrates how many
tons
of three different fossil fuels sorts were used in the UK between 1990 and 2010.
Overall
, there was an increase in the amount of gas, while
the opposite trend was seen in the figure
for oil and coal. Furthermore
, the amount of used coal was the highest figure
compared to others, replaced by gas from 2000 onwards.
The rate of gas used for intended purposes started at 210 million
tons
in 1990, after which it experienced a significant rise to 300 million
tons
in 2000, before ending the period at 325 million
in 2010 due to
a marginal climb. Opposite changes could be witnessed through the figure
for coal, which was at 305 million
tons
in 1990 and remained at the top place for the next five years, despite a small downward trend to 275 million
. However
, from 2000 onwards, because of a remarkable drop, coal became the least common kind of emission resource in the UK, reaching just under 200 million
in the final year.
Similar changes but with a negligible fluctuation could be seen in the figure
for oil, starting at 225 million
tons
in the first year, followed by a slight decline to 205 million
after a decade, and ending the period at just over 200 million
tons
in the last
year because of a significant decrease.Submitted by anhnguyen270407 on
