Band 5+: Task 1 – Take a look at the chart below and perform the task as outlined: This graph shows the proportion of four different materials that were recycled from 1982 to 2010 in a particular country. Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, making comparisons where relevant.

The chart shows the recycling rate for that selected material from 1982 to 2010 in that a particular country.

The chart explains the changes of that specific material as some started to decrease at the start and as it continues, it they start to increase gradually proportional to the increasing years. During the data collection, four different materials have been selected: Paper & Cardboard. Glass containers, Aluminium cans and Plastics.

At 1982, Glass containers and Paper & carboard above 50 percent with paper and cardboard on approximately 65 percent. But as the years went by, Glass containers have decreased by 10 percent in 1990, whereas paper & cardboard increases to 70 percent in 1986 and returned on 1990. Then the increase of recycling rate from the yeart 1994 in both the glass container by 10 percent ( from 40 percent to 50 percent) and increases again by 10 percent till the year 2010 (16 years). The paper & carboard inclines to 80 percent in 1994 and decreases to 70 percent till 2010.

Aluminium cans and plastics started during the years 1986 and 1990. Where there is only an increase in the rate proportional to the increasing years. The biggest increase is the aluminium can increasing by 40 percent through out the year and plastics have be less than 10 percent.
