The first pie chart compares the shares of four major items in global expenditure. It is observed that the most significant amounts are paid for food (almost a quarter of global expenditure) and transport (almost 20%), while housing also accounts for a considerable proportion. The least among the four is spent on clothing (merely 6 percent) and the remaining 40% is spent on a variety of other items.
The second diagram illustrates how global population is distributed. According to this chart, there is a significant difference between the population of Asia and that of other continents since 3 out of every 5 human beings live in Asia. Europe and the Americas share similar proportions and together are host to roughly one-third of the world’s population, while the inhabitants of Africa form a mere one-tenth.
To sum up, four items are responsible for three-fifths of the overall spending around the world, the most prominent share being that of food. Moreover, the largest group of humans populates Asia, the population of which outnumbers that of the rest of the world by 3 to 2.
