The first pie chart illustrates the percentage of household energy that is used in Australia in five areas while the other pie chart compares the amount of gas emissions released as a result of energy use.
It clearly seems that people consume the most energy for heating and water heating. The least greenhouse gas is emitted as a consequence of cooling and lighting.
Heating and water heating with 42% and 30% respectively are on the top in Australian household energy using. Although people consume only 2 percent of energy for cooling while this figure is twice much as lighting. Using of other appliances causes 15% expending of total household energy.
In terms of greenhouse gas emissions, the least harmful field is cooling, since just 3 percent gas is emitted because of this process, however heating leads to 5 times more emissions. Moreover, water heating and consuming of other appliances are the most damaging areas for environment with 32% and 28% greenhouse gas emissions respectively. Furthermore, refrigeration leads to 14% gas emissions being released into the atmosphere.
