The graph shows findings in eating different sorts of fish and meat in Europe from 1979 to 2004. There are four options, two of them – lamb and beef – for these 25 years were declined, fish stayed on the same level and only chicken had growth.
As for the lamb and beef, they were starting from one point (150) and during 10 years they had different changes. Lamb dropped to 100, although beef rose to approximately 160. From 1989 to 2004 they were both falling, but from 1989 to 19944 the lamb reduced sharply (from 100 to about 55) and after slowly dragging on 50. The beef was going in another way, firstly slowly ascending from 1989 to 1999, and after was dropped from about 135 to approximately 80.
What about two other options – fish and chicken? Fish is not interesting, because it starts from 50 and continues being on the same place till the end. However, the chicken had changes. For 5 years from the start it rose almost to 250, but next 10 years it was slowly reducing to start point (200). From 1994 to 1999 it was not changing, and the last 5 years the chicken again was increasing.
