The graph below shows the production levels of the main kinds of fuel in the UK between 1981 and 2000. Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparison where relevant.
The line chart illustrates how many fuels of three types were manufactured in the United Kingdom from 1981 to 2000.
Overall
, it is clear that
the popularity of all options increased over time, with the notable exception of coal.
At the beginning of the period, the production levels of petroleum stood at 90, and after that, they dramatically rose to nearly 140 in 3 years. Subsequently
, this
value reached its peak of 150 in the last
year, after seeing a significant drop of 30 per cent in 1990. This
trend was followed by natural gas, which demonstrated an upward trend from just below 40 to about 100, despite some past fluctuations.
In contrast
, the amount of coal produced saw a slight decline in 1983, followed by a sharp decrease to nearly 30 in the following year. However
, this
number doubled in 1986, then
slowly went down with some variations and finished the given period at just below 40.Submitted by Aqxniet on
