Band 5+: The graph below shows the information on waste disposal in a European country from 2005 to 2008. Summarise the information making comparisons where relevant.

The quantity of waste are being illustrated in this bar graph which is measured in million tons and disposed of by three different methods (landfill, burning and dumping in sea) over 3 years (2005, 2006, and 2008).

In this graph it can be seen that the landfill method of waste disposal has reduced significantly over the years, whereas the dumping in see method of disposal has increased in a linear way, which is 1200 million tons in 2005 around 1400 and just over 1600 million tons in 2006 and 2008 respectively. On contrary, in burning method the amount of disposal is 900 million tons in 2005 which has increased near about 1200 million tons in 2006 and again decreased and reached at just below the range of 900 million tons.

Overall the quantity of disposal are decreasing in the landfill method but increasing in dumping in see method, whereas fluctuating in burning method. This disposal of waste should be reduced and should be more focused on renewable sources or method, so that the nature does not get affected.
